In anhinton/conduit: A prototype glue system for OpenAPI

Description Usage Arguments Details Value See Also Examples

Execute the scripts contained in or referenced by a module's sources.

1 2	runModule(module, targetDirectory = getwd(), inputObjects = NULL, warnVersion = FALSE)

`module`	`module` object
`targetDirectory`	File path for module output
`inputObjects`	Named list of input objects
`warnVersion`	should conduit warn if module language version requirements are not met

This function:

creates a directory for the module's outputs
determines which language the module script requires
executes the module's source(s) using this language

If the module has inputs the inputObjects list must have a named absolute file location for each input which is not resolveable based on only the input provided.

targetDirectory must exist or the function will return an error.

This function creates a directory named for the module in the targetDirectory if it does not already exist. Outputs generated by the module source scripts are stored in this directory. A module XML file which will provide the original module's output is also created in this directory.

If module$host is not NULL the remote host must exist and be accessible by conduit or this function will fail.

If warnVersion is TRUE this function will give a warning when the executing language does not meet the module's moduleLanguage requirments.

moduleResult

module, moduleSource, moduleLanguage for creating modules, moduleResult for result objects
