image_prefix

[spatel81]

Hi,

if there is a way to set the image_prefix in a yaml so it dumps filenames according to time rather than timestep?

for example, I have the following setup in my .yaml when rendering in-situ images using NekRS:

  action: "add_scenes"
  scenes:
    s2: 
      plots:
        p1: 
          type: "pseudocolor"
          field: "velocity_y"
          pipeline: "pl2"
          color_table:
            name: "Rainbow Desaturated"
          min_value: -2.5
          max_value: 2.5 
      renders:
        r1: 
          camera:
            position: [18.9475, -25.975, 30.5072]
            look_at: [0.0, -25.975, 30.5072]
            up: [0.0, 0.0, 1.0]
            zoom: 3.00
          image_prefix: "img/turbIc_x%06d"
          world_annotations: true
          screen_annotations: true
          image_width: 2048
          image_height: 256 

I would like the filenames to reflect the physical time (e.g. 2.01, 3.09, 4.98, etc) rather than steps (i.e. 100, 200, 300, 400, etc.). Hope this makes sense. any help would be much appreciated.

@spatel81 not yet, but we want to add more controls:

Would something like this work for your case?

"img/turbIc_{time:.2f}"

hi @cyrush ....thanks. I will give it try.

@spatel81 Sorry for not being clear -- this won't work just yet, but just checking if this seems like it would fit your needs.
What do you think?

oh ok. yes, that would probably work for me. Thanks!
