GatherResourceUsageTask¶

class lsst.analysis.tools.tasks.GatherResourceUsageTask(*, config: PipelineTaskConfig | None = None, log: logging.Logger | LsstLogAdapter | None = None, initInputs: dict[str, Any] | None = None, **kwargs: Any)¶

Bases: PipelineTask

A PipelineTask that gathers resource usage statistics from task metadata.

Notes

This is an unusual PipelineTask in that its input connection has dynamic dimensions.

Its output table has columns for each of the dimensions of the input metadata’s data ID, as well as (subject to configuration):

memory: the maximum resident set size for the entire quantum (in bytes);
prep_time: the time spent in the pre-initialization step in which the middleware checks which of the quantum’s inputs are available;
init_time: the time spent in task construction;
run_time: the time spent executing the task’s runQuantum method.
{method}: the time spent in a particular task or subtask method decorated with lsst.utils.timer.timeMethod.

All time durations are CPU times in seconds, and all columns are 64-bit floating point. Methods or steps that did not run are given a duration of zero.

It is expected that this task will be configured to run multiple times in most pipelines, often once for each other task in the pipeline.

Methods Documentation

emptyMetadata() → None¶: Empty (clear) the metadata for this Task and all sub-Tasks.

getFullMetadata() → TaskMetadata¶

Get metadata for all tasks.

Returns:

metadataTaskMetadata: The keys are the full task name. Values are metadata for the top-level task and all subtasks, sub-subtasks, etc.

Notes

The returned metadata includes timing information (if @timer.timeMethod is used) and any metadata set by the task. The name of each item consists of the full task name with . replaced by :, followed by . and the name of the item, e.g.:

topLevelTaskName:subtaskName:subsubtaskName.itemName

using : in the full task name disambiguates the rare situation that a task has a subtask and a metadata item with the same name.

getFullName() → str¶

Get the task name as a hierarchical name including parent task names.

Returns:

fullNamestr

The full name consists of the name of the parent task and each subtask separated by periods. For example:

The full name of top-level task “top” is simply “top”.
The full name of subtask “sub” of top-level task “top” is “top.sub”.
The full name of subtask “sub2” of subtask “sub” of top-level task “top” is “top.sub.sub2”.

getName() → str¶

Get the name of the task.

Returns:

taskNamestr: Name of the task.

See also

getFullName

getTaskDict() → dict[str, weakref.ReferenceType[lsst.pipe.base.task.Task]]¶

Get a dictionary of all tasks as a shallow copy.

Returns:

taskDictdict: Dictionary containing full task name: task object for the top-level task and all subtasks, sub-subtasks, etc.

classmethod makeField(doc: str) → ConfigurableField¶

Make a lsst.pex.config.ConfigurableField for this task.

Parameters:

docstr: Help text for the field.

Returns:

configurableFieldlsst.pex.config.ConfigurableField: A ConfigurableField for this task.

Examples

Provides a convenient way to specify this task is a subtask of another task.

Here is an example of use:

class OtherTaskConfig(lsst.pex.config.Config):
    aSubtask = ATaskClass.makeField("brief description of task")

makeSubtask(name: str, **keyArgs: Any) → None¶

Create a subtask as a new instance as the name attribute of this task.

Parameters:

namestr

Brief name of the subtask.

**keyArgs

Extra keyword arguments used to construct the task. The following arguments are automatically provided and cannot be overridden:

config.
parentTask.

Notes

The subtask must be defined by Task.config.name, an instance of ConfigurableField or RegistryField.

run(universe, input_metadata)¶

Gather resource usage statistics from per-quantum metadata.

Parameters:

universeDimensionUniverse: Object managing all dimensions recognized by the butler; used to standardize and expand GatherResourceUsageConfig.dimensions.
input_metadatalist [ DeferredDatasetHandle ]: List of lsst.daf.butler.DeferredDatasetHandle that can be used to load all input metadata datasets.

Returns:

resultStruct

Structure with a single element:

outout_table: a pandas.DataFrame that aggregates the configured resource usage statistics.

runQuantum(butlerQC, inputRefs, outputRefs)¶

Do butler IO and transform to provide in memory objects for tasks run method.

Parameters:

butlerQCQuantumContext: A butler which is specialized to operate in the context of a lsst.daf.butler.Quantum.
inputRefsInputQuantizedConnection: Datastructure whose attribute names are the names that identify connections defined in corresponding PipelineTaskConnections class. The values of these attributes are the lsst.daf.butler.DatasetRef objects associated with the defined input/prerequisite connections.
outputRefsOutputQuantizedConnection: Datastructure whose attribute names are the names that identify connections defined in corresponding PipelineTaskConnections class. The values of these attributes are the lsst.daf.butler.DatasetRef objects associated with the defined output connections.

timer(name: str, logLevel: int = 10) → Iterator[None]¶

Context manager to log performance data for an arbitrary block of code.

Parameters:

namestr: Name of code being timed; data will be logged using item name: Start and End.
logLevel: A logging level constant.
