AnyType eval(AnyType Expr)

Evaluates Expr as a string and then returns the result of evaluating the contents of the string as a ClassAd expression. This is useful when referring to an attribute such as slotX_State where X, the desired slot number is an expression, such as SlotID+10. In such a case, if attribute SlotID is 5, the value of the attribute slot15_State can be referenced using the expression eval(strcat("slot", SlotID+10,"_State")). Function strcat() calls function string() on the second parameter, which evaluates the expression, and then converts the integer result 15 to the string "15". The concatenated string returned by strcat() is "slot15_State", and this string is then evaluated.

Note that referring to attributes of a job from within the string passed to eval() in the Requirements or Rank expressions could cause inaccuracies in HTCondor's automatic auto-clustering of jobs into equivalent groups for matchmaking purposes. This is because HTCondor needs to determine which ClassAd attributes are significant for matchmaking purposes, and indirect references from within the string passed to eval() will not be counted.

String unparse(Attribute attr)

This function looks up the value of the provided attribute and returns the unparsed version as a string. The attribute's value is not evaluated. If the attribute's value is x + 3, then the function would return the string "x + 3". If the provided attribute cannot be found, an empty string is returned.

This function returns ERROR if other than exactly 1 argument is given or the argument is not an attribute reference.

String unresolved(Attribute attr)

This function returns the external attribute references and unresolved attribute references of the expression that is the value of the provided attribute. If the provided attribute cannot be found, then undefined is returned.

For example, in a typical job ClassAd if the Requirements expression has the value OpSys == "LINUX" && TARGET.Arch == "ARM" && Cpus >= RequestCpus, then unresolved(Requirements) will return "Arch,Cpus,OpSys" because those will not be attributes of the job ClassAd.

Boolean unresolved(Attribute attr, String pattern)

This function returns True when at least one of the external or unresolved attribute references of the expression that is the value of the provided attribute matches the given Perl regular expression pattern. If none of the references match the pattern, then False is returned. If the provided attribute cannot be found, then undefined is returned.

For example, in a typical job ClassAd if the Requirements expression has the value OpSys == "LINUX" && Arch == "ARM", then unresolved(Requirements, "^OpSys") will return True, and unresolved(Requirements, "OpSys.+") will return False.

The intended use of this function is to make it easier to apply a submit transform to a job only when the job does not already reference a certain attribute. For instance

AnyType ifThenElse(AnyType IfExpr,AnyType ThenExpr, AnyType ElseExpr)

A conditional expression is described by IfExpr. The following defines return values, when IfExpr evaluates to

Returns error if op does not evalute to one of <, <=, ==, >, >=, !-, is or isnt. Returns error if l isn't a list, or t isn't a scalar Otherwise the elements of l are evaluted and compared to t using the corresponding operator defined by op. If all of the members of l evaluate to true, the result is True. Otherwise the function returns False.

Returns error if m does not evalute to a scalar, or l does not evaluate to a list. Otherwise the elements of l are evaluted in order, and if an element is equal to m in the sense of =?= the result of the function is True. Otherwise the function returns false.

Integer int(AnyType Expr)

Returns the integer value as defined by Expr. Where the type of the evaluated Expr is Real, the value is truncated (round towards zero) to an integer. Where the type of the evaluated Expr is String, the string is converted to an integer using a C-like atoi() function. When this result is not an integer, ERROR is returned. Where the evaluated Expr is ERROR or UNDEFINED, ERROR is returned.

This function returns ERROR if other than exactly 1 argument is given.

Real real(AnyType Expr)

Returns the real value as defined by Expr. Where the type of the evaluated Expr is Integer, the return value is the converted integer. Where the type of the evaluated Expr is String, the string is converted to a real value using a C-like atof() function. When this result is not a real, ERROR is returned. Where the evaluated Expr is ERROR or UNDEFINED, ERROR is returned.

This function returns ERROR if other than exactly 1 argument is given.

This function returns ERROR if other than exactly 1 argument is given.

AbsTime absTime(AnyType t [, int z])

Creates an AbsTime value corresponding to time t an time-zone offset z. If t is a String, then z must be omitted, and t is parsed as a specification as follows.

The operand t is parsed as a specification of an instant in time (date and time). This function accepts the canonical native representation of AbsTime values, but minor variations in format are allowed. The default format is yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:sszzzzz where zzzzz is a time zone in the format +hh:mm or -hh:mm

If t and z are both omitted, the result is an AbsTime value representing the time and place where the function call is evaluated. Otherwise, t is converted to a Real by the function “real”, and treated as a number of seconds from the epoch, Midnight January 1, 1970 UTC. If z is specified, it is treated as a number of seconds east of Greenwich. Otherwise, the offset is calculated from t according to the local rules for the place where the function is evaluated.

RelTime relTime(AnyType t)

If the operand t is a String, it is parsed as a specification of a time interval. This function accepts the canonical native representation of RelTime values, but minor variations in format are allowed.

Otherwise, t is converted to a Real by the function real, and treated as a number of seconds. The default string format is [-]days+hh:mm:ss.fff, where leading components and the fraction .fff are omitted if they are zero. In the default syntax, days is a sequence of digits starting with a non-zero digit, hh, mm, and ss are strings of exactly two digits (padded on the left with zeros if necessary) with values less than 24, 60, and 60, respectively and fff is a string of exactly three digits.

Integer floor(AnyType Expr)

Returns the integer that results from the evaluation of Expr, where the type of the evaluated Expr is Integer. Where the type of the evaluated Expr is not Integer, function real(Expr) is called. Its return value is then used to return the largest magnitude integer that is not larger than the returned value. Where real(Expr) returns ERROR or UNDEFINED, ERROR is returned.

This function returns ERROR if other than exactly 1 argument is given.

Integer ceiling(AnyType Expr)

Returns the integer that results from the evaluation of Expr, where the type of the evaluated Expr is Integer. Where the type of the evaluated Expr is not Integer, function real(Expr) is called.

This function returns ERROR if other than exactly 1 argument is given.

Integer pow(Integer base, Integer exponent) OR Real pow(Integer base, Integer exponent) OR Real pow(Real base, Real exponent)

Calculates base raised to the power of exponent. If exponent is an integer value greater than or equal to 0, and base is an integer, then an integer value is returned. If exponent is an integer value less than 0, or if either base or exponent is a real, then a real value is returned. An invocation with exponent=0 or exponent=0.0, for any value of base, including 0 or 0.0, returns the value 1 or 1.0, type appropriate.

Integer quantize(AnyType a, Integer b) OR Real quantize(AnyType a, Real b) OR AnyType quantize(AnyType a, AnyType list b)

quantize() computes the quotient of a/b, in order to further compute `` ceiling(quotient) * b``. This computes and returns an integral multiple of b that is at least as large as a. So, when b >= a, the return value will be b. The return type is the same as that of b, where b is an Integer or Real.

When b is a list, quantize() returns the first value in the list that is greater than or equal to a. When no value in the list is greater than or equal to a, this computes and returns an integral multiple of the last member in the list that is at least as large as a.

This function returns ERROR if a or b, or a member of the list that must be considered is not an Integer or Real.

Here are examples:

8     = quantize(3, 8)
4     = quantize(3, 2)
0     = quantize(0, 4)
6.8   = quantize(1.5, 6.8)
7.2   = quantize(6.8, 1.2)
10.2  = quantize(10, 5.1)
4     = quantize(0, {4})
2     = quantize(2, {1, 2, "A"})
3.0   = quantize(3, {1, 2, 0.5})
3.0   = quantize(2.7, {1, 2, 0.5})
ERROR = quantize(3, {1, 2, "A"})

Integer round(AnyType Expr)

Returns the integer that results from the evaluation of Expr, where the type of the evaluated Expr is Integer. Where the type of the evaluated Expr is not Integer, function real(Expr) is called. Its return value is then used to return the integer that results from a round-to-nearest rounding method. The nearest integer value to the return value is returned, except in the case of the value at the exact midpoint between two integer values. In this case, the even valued integer is returned. Where real(Expr) returns ERROR or UNDEFINED, or the integer value does not fit into 32 bits, ERROR is returned.

This function returns ERROR if other than exactly 1 argument is given.

Integer random([ AnyType Expr ])

Where the optional argument Expr evaluates to type Integer or type Real (and called x), the return value is the integer or real r randomly chosen from the interval 0 <= r < x. With no argument, the return value is chosen with random(1.0). Returns ERROR in all other cases.

This function returns ERROR if greater than 1 argument is given.

Number sum([ List l ])

The elements of l are evaluated, producing a list l of values. Undefined values are removed. If the resulting l is composed only of numbers, the result is the sum of the values, as a Real if any value is Real, and as an Integer otherwise. If the list is empty, the result is 0. If the list has only Undefined values, the result is UNDEFINED. In other cases, the result is ERROR.

This function returns ERROR if greater than 1 argument is given.

Number avg([ List l ])

The elements of l are evaluated, producing a list l of values. Undefined values are removed. If the resulting l is composed only of numbers, the result is the average of the values, as a Real. If the list is empty, the result is 0. If the list has only Undefined values, the result is UNDEFINED. In other cases, the result is ERROR.

Number min([ List l ])

The elements of l are evaluated, producing a list l of values. Undefined values are removed. If the resulting l is composed only of numbers, the result is the minimum of the values, as a Real if any value is Real, and as an Integer otherwise. If the list is empty, the result is UNDEFINED. In other cases, the result is ERROR.

Number max([ List l ])

The elements of l are evaluated, producing a list l of values. Undefined values are removed. If the resulting l is composed only of numbers, the result is the maximum of the values, as a Real if any value is Real, and as an Integer otherwise. If the list is empty, the result is UNDEFINED. In other cases, the result is ERROR.

String strcat(AnyType Expr1 [ , AnyType Expr2 ...])

Returns the string which is the concatenation of all arguments, where all arguments are converted to type String by function string(Expr). Returns ERROR if any argument evaluates to UNDEFINED or ERROR.

String join(String sep, AnyType Expr1 [ , AnyType Expr2 ...]) OR String join(String sep, List list OR String join(List list

Returns the string which is the concatenation of all arguments after the first one. The first argument is the separator, and it is inserted between each of the other arguments during concatenation. All arguments which are not undefined are converted to type String by function string(Expr) before concatenation. Undefined arguments are skipped. When there are exactly two arguments, If the second argument is a List, all members of the list are converted to strings and then joined using the separator. When there is only one argument, and the argument is a List, all members of the list are converted to strings and then concatenated.

Returns ERROR if any argument evaluates to UNDEFINED or ERROR.

For example:

"a, b, c" = join(", ", "a", "b", "c")
"abc"   = join(split("a b c"))
"a;b;c" = join(";", split("a b c"))

String substr(String s, Integer offset [ , Integer length ])

Returns the substring of s, from the position indicated by offset, with (optional) length characters. The first character within s is at offset 0. If the optional length argument is not present, the substring extends to the end of the string. If offset is negative, the value (length - offset) is used for the offset. If length is negative, an initial substring is computed, from the offset to the end of the string. Then, the absolute value of length characters are deleted from the right end of the initial substring. Further, where characters of this resulting substring lie outside the original string, the part that lies within the original string is returned. If the substring lies completely outside of the original string, the null string is returned.

This function returns ERROR if greater than 3 or less than 2 arguments are given.

Integer strcmp(AnyType Expr1, AnyType Expr2)

Both arguments are converted to type String by function string(Expr). The return value is an integer that will be

Case is significant in the comparison. Where either argument evaluates to ERROR or UNDEFINED, ERROR is returned.

This function returns ERROR if other than 2 arguments are given.

Integer stricmp(AnyType Expr1, AnyType Expr2)

This function is the same as strcmp, except that letter case is not significant.

Integer versioncmp(String left, String right)

This function version-compares two strings. It returns an integer

A version comparison is a lexicographic comparison unless the first difference between the two strings occurs in a string of digits, in which case, sort by the value of that number (assuming that more leading zeroes mean smaller numbers). Thus 7.x is earlier than 7.y, 7.9 is earlier than 7.10, and the following sequence is in order: 000, 00, 01, 010, 09, 0, 1, 9, 10.

String toUpper(AnyType Expr)

The single argument is converted to type String by function string(Expr). The return value is this string, with all lower case letters converted to upper case. If the argument evaluates to ERROR or UNDEFINED, ERROR is returned.

This function returns ERROR if other than exactly 1 argument is given.

String toLower(AnyType Expr)

The single argument is converted to type String by function string(Expr). The return value is this string, with all upper case letters converted to lower case. If the argument evaluates to ERROR or UNDEFINED, ERROR is returned.

This function returns ERROR if other than exactly 1 argument is given.

Integer size(AnyType Expr)

If Expr evaluates to a string, return the number of characters in the string. If Expr evaluate to a list, return the number of elements in the list. If Expr evaluate to a classad, return the number of entries in the ad. Otherwise, ERROR is returned.

List split(String s [ , String tokens ] )

Returns a list of the substrings of s that have been split up by using any of the characters within string tokens. If tokens is not specified, then all white space characters are used to delimit the string.

List splitUserName(String Name)

Returns a list of two strings. Where Name includes an @ character, the first string in the list will be the substring that comes before the @ character, and the second string in the list will be the substring that comes after. Thus, if Name is "user@domain", then the returned list will be {"user", "domain"}. If there is no @ character in Name, then the first string in the list will be Name, and the second string in the list will be the empty string. Thus, if Name is "username", then the returned list will be {"username", ""}.

List splitSlotName(String Name)

Returns a list of two strings. Where Name includes an @ character, the first string in the list will be the substring that comes before the @ character, and the second string in the list will be the substring that comes after. Thus, if Name is "slot1@machine", then the returned list will be {"slot1", "machine"}. If there is no @ character in Name, then the first string in the list will be the empty string, and the second string in the list will be Name, Thus, if Name is "machinename", then the returned list will be {"", "machinename"}.

Integer time()

Returns the current coordinated universal time. This is the time, in seconds, since midnight of January 1, 1970.

String formatTime([ Integer time ] [ , String format ])

Returns a formatted string that is a representation of time. The argument time is interpreted as coordinated universal time in seconds, since midnight of January 1, 1970. If not specified, time will default to the current time.

The argument format is interpreted similarly to the format argument of the ANSI C strftime function. It consists of arbitrary text plus placeholders for elements of the time. These placeholders are percent signs (%) followed by a single letter. To have a percent sign in the output, use a double percent sign (%%). If format is not specified, it defaults to %c.

Because the implementation uses strftime() to implement this, and some versions implement extra, non-ANSI C options, the exact options available to an implementation may vary. An implementation is only required to implement the ANSI C options, which are:

String interval(Integer seconds)

Uses seconds to return a string of the form days+hh:mm:ss. This represents an interval of time. Leading values that are zero are omitted from the string. For example, seconds of 67 becomes "1:07". A second example, seconds of 1472523 = 17*24*60*60 + 1*60*60 + 2*60 + 3, results in the string "17+1:02:03".

String evalInEachContext(Expression expr, List contexts)

This function evaluates its first argument as an expression in the context of each Classad in the second argument and returns a list that is the result of each evaluation. The first argument should be an expression. If the second argument does not evaluate to a list of ClassAds, ERROR is returned.

For example:

{true, false} = evalInEachContext(Prio > 2, { [Prio=3;], [Prio=1;] })
{3, 1} = evalInEachContext(Prio, { [Prio=3;], [Prio=1;] })
ERROR = evalInEachContext(Prio > 2, { [Prio=3;], UNDEFINED })
ERROR = evalInEachContext(Prio > 2, UNDEFINED)

String countMatches(Expression expr, List contexts)

This function evaluates its first argument as an expression in the context of each Classad in the second argument and returns a count of the results that evaluated to True. The first argument should be an expression. The second argument should be a list of ClassAds or a list of attribute references to classAds, or should evaluate to a list of ClassAds. This function will always return a integer value when the first argument is defined and the second argument is not ERROR.

For example:

1 = countMatches(Prio > 2, { [Prio=3;], [Prio=1;] })
1 = countMatches(Prio > 2, { [Prio=3;], UNDEFINED })
0 = countMatches(Prio > 2, UNDEFINED)

AnyType debug(AnyType expression)

This function evaluates its argument, and it returns the result. Thus, it is a no-operation. However, a side-effect of the function is that information about the evaluation is logged to the evaluating program's log file, at the D_FULLDEBUG debug level. This is useful for determining why a given ClassAd expression is evaluating the way it does. For example, if a condor_startd START expression is unexpectedly evaluating to UNDEFINED, then wrapping the expression in this debug() function will log information about each component of the expression to the log file, making it easier to understand the expression.

String envV1ToV2(String old_env)

This function converts a set of environment variables from the old HTCondor syntax to the new syntax. The single argument should evaluate to a string that represents a set of environment variables using the old HTCondor syntax (usually stored in the job ClassAd attribute Env). The result is the same set of environment variables using the new HTCondor syntax (usually stored in the job ClassAd attribute Environment). If the argument evaluates to UNDEFINED, then the result is also UNDEFINED.

String mergeEnvironment(String env1 [ , String env2, ... ])

This function merges multiple sets of environment variables into a single set. If multiple arguments include the same variable, the one that appears last in the argument list is used. Each argument should evaluate to a string which represents a set of environment variables using the new HTCondor syntax or UNDEFINED, which is treated like an empty string. The result is a string that represents the merged set of environment variables using the new HTCondor syntax (suitable for use as the value of the job ClassAd attribute Environment).

Integer stringListSize(String list [ , String delimiter ])

Returns the number of elements in the string list, as delimited by the optional delimiter string. Returns ERROR if either argument is not a string.

This function returns ERROR if other than 1 or 2 arguments are given.

Integer stringListSum(String list [ , String delimiter ]) OR Real stringListSum(String list [ , String delimiter ])

Sums and returns the sum of all items in the string list, as delimited by the optional delimiter string. If all items in the list are integers, the return value is also an integer. If any item in the list is a real value (noninteger), the return value is a real. If any item does not represent an integer or real value, the return value is ERROR.

Real stringListAvg(String list [ , String delimiter ])

Sums and returns the real-valued average of all items in the string list, as delimited by the optional delimiter string. If any item does not represent an integer or real value, the return value is ERROR. A list with 0 items (the empty list) returns the value 0.0.

Integer stringListMin(String list [ , String delimiter ]) OR Real stringListMin(String list [ , String delimiter ])

Finds and returns the minimum value from all items in the string list, as delimited by the optional delimiter string. If all items in the list are integers, the return value is also an integer. If any item in the list is a real value (noninteger), the return value is a real. If any item does not represent an integer or real value, the return value is ERROR. A list with 0 items (the empty list) returns the value UNDEFINED.

Integer stringListMax(String list [ , String delimiter ]) OR Real stringListMax(String list [ , String delimiter ])

Finds and returns the maximum value from all items in the string list, as delimited by the optional delimiter string. If all items in the list are integers, the return value is also an integer. If any item in the list is a real value (noninteger), the return value is a real. If any item does not represent an integer or real value, the return value is ERROR. A list with 0 items (the empty list) returns the value UNDEFINED.

Boolean stringListMember(String x, String list [ , String delimiter ])

Returns TRUE if item x is in the string list, as delimited by the optional delimiter string. Returns FALSE if item x is not in the string list. Comparison is done with strcmp(). The return value is ERROR, if any of the arguments are not strings.

Boolean stringListIMember(String x, String list [ , String delimiter ])

Same as stringListMember(), but comparison is done with stricmp(), so letter case is not relevant.

Integer stringListsIntersect(String list1, String list2 [ , String delimiter ])

Returns TRUE if the lists contain any matching elements, and returns FALSE if the lists do not contain any matching elements. Returns ERROR if either argument is not a string or if an incorrect number of arguments are given.

Boolean stringListSubsetMatch(String list1, String list2 [ , String delimiter ])

Returns TRUE if all item in the string list1 are also in the string list2, as delimited by the optional delimiter string. Returns FALSE if list1 has any items that are not in list2. Both lists are treated as sets. Empty items and duplicate items are ignored. The return value is TRUE if list1 is UNDEFINED or empty and list2 is any string value. The return value is FALSE if list1 is any string vlaue and list2 is UNDEFINED. The return value is UNDEFINED if both list1 and list2 are UNDEFINED. The return value is ERROR, if any of the arguments are not either strings or UNDEFINED

Boolean stringListISubsetMatch(String list1, String list2 [ , String delimiter ])

Same as stringListSubsetMatch(), but the sets are case-insensitive.

I or i

Ignore letter case.

M or m

Modifies the interpretation of the caret (^) and dollar sign ($) characters. The caret character matches the start of a string, as well as after each newline character. The dollar sign character matches before a newline character.

S or s

The period matches any character, including the newline character.

F or f

When doing substitution, return the full target string with substitutions applied. Normally, only the substitute text is returned.

G or g

When doing substitution, apply the substitution for every matching portion of the target string (that doesn't overlap a previous match).

Boolean regexp(String pattern, String target [ , String options ])

Uses the regular expression given by string pattern to scan through the string target. Returns TRUE when target matches the regular expression given by pattern. Returns FALSE otherwise. If any argument is not a string, or if pattern does not describe a valid regular expression, returns ERROR.

Boolean regexpMember(String pattern, List targetStrings [ , String options ])

Uses the description of a regular expression given by string pattern to scan through a List of string n targetStrings. Returns TRUE when target matches a regular expression given by pattern. If no strings match, and at least one item in targetString evaluated to undefined, returns undefined. If any item in targetString before a match evaluated to neither a string nor undefined, returns ERROR.

String regexps

(String pattern, String target, String substitute [ , String options ]) Uses the regular expression given by string pattern to scan through the string target. When target matches the regular expression given by pattern, the string substitute is returned, with backslash expansion performed. If any argument is not a string, returns ERROR.

String replace

(String pattern, String target, String substitute [ , String options ]) Uses the regular expression given by string pattern to scan through the string target. Returns a modified version of target, where the first substring that matches pattern is replaced by the string substitute, with backslash expansion performed. Equivalent to regexps() with the f option. If any argument is not a string, returns ERROR.

String replaceall

(String pattern, String target, String substitute [ , String options ]) Uses the regular expression given by string pattern to scan through the string target.

If any argument is not a string, returns ERROR.

Boolean stringList_regexpMember

(String pattern, String list [ , String delimiter ] [ , String options ]) Uses the description of a regular expression given by string pattern to scan through the list of strings in list. Returns TRUE when one of the strings in list is a regular expression as described by pattern. The optional delimiter describes how the list is delimited, and string options modifies how the match is performed. Returns FALSE if pattern does not match any entries in list. The return value is ERROR, if any of the arguments are not strings, or if pattern is not a valid regular expression.

String userHome(String userName [ , String default ])

Returns the home directory of the given user as configured on the current system (determined using the getpwdnam() call). (Returns default if the default argument is passed and the home directory of the user is not defined.)

List userMap(String mapSetName, String userName)
