parsl.app.futures.DataFuture

class parsl.app.futures.DataFuture(fut, file_obj, tid=None)

A datafuture points at an AppFuture.

We are simply wrapping a AppFuture, and adding the specific case where, if the future is resolved i.e file exists, then the DataFuture is assumed to be resolved.

__init__(fut, file_obj, tid=None)

Construct the DataFuture object.

If the file_obj is a string convert to a File.

Parameters

• fut (-) – AppFuture that this DataFuture will track

• file_obj (-) – Something representing file(s)

Kwargs:

• tid (task_id) : Task id that this DataFuture tracks
