lsst.sims.ocs.configuration.sim_config module

class lsst.sims.ocs.configuration.sim_config.SimulationConfig

Bases: lsst.pex.config.config.Config

Configuration for the survey simulation.

This class gathers all of the configuration objects into one place.

!Allocate a new Config object.

In order to ensure that all Config object are always in a proper state when handed to users or to derived Config classes, some attributes are handled at allocation time rather than at initialization

This ensures that even if a derived Config class implements __init__, the author does not need to be concerned about when or even if he should call the base Config.__init__

config_list(sub_config=None)

Get a list of parameter name, value tuples.

Parameters:sub_config (str, optional) – The name of a sub-configuration parameter. Returns:list[tuple(str, str)] – The list of configuration name, value tuples.

load(ifiles)

Load and apply configuration override files.

This function loads the specified configuration files and applies them to the configuration objects. If input is a directory, it is assumed that all files in that directory are override files.

Parameters:ifiles (list[str]) – A list of files or directories containing configuration overrides.

load_proposals()

Tell the science proposals to load their configuration.

make_tuples(value, key=None)

Parameters:

• value (any) – A configuration parameter or dictionary.
• key (str, optional) – The part of a fully qualified parameter name.

Returns:

list[tuple(str, str)] – The list of configuration name, value tuples.

save(save_dir='')

Save the configuration objects to separate files.

Parameters:save_dir (str) – The directory in which to save the configuration files.

setDefaults()

Set defaults for the survey simulation.

downtime

The LSST downtime configuration.

environment

The environmental configuration.

num_proposals

The total number of active proposals.

Returns:int

observatory

The LSST observatory configuration.

observing_site

The observing site configuration.

sched_driver

The LSST Scheduler driver configuration.

science

The science proposal configuration.

survey

The LSST survey configuration.
