h_init —- Initialize the interferometry pipeline

The h_init task initializes the interferometry pipeline and optionally imports data.

h_init must be called before any other interferometry pipeline task. The pipeline can be initialized in one of two ways: by creating a new pipeline state (h_init) or be loading a saved pipeline state (h_resume).

h_init creates an empty pipeline context but does not load visibility data into the context. hif_importdata or hsd_importdata can be used to load data.

If pipeline mode is ‘getinputs’ then None is returned. Otherwise the results object for the pipeline task is returned.

——— parameter descriptions ———————————————

pipelinemode The pipeline operating mode. In ‘automatic’ mode the pipeline determines the values of all context defined pipeline inputs automatically. In interactive mode the user can set the pipeline context defined parameters manually. In ‘getinputs’ mode the user can check the settings of all pipeline parameters without running the task. loglevel Log level for pipeline messages. Log messages below this threshold will not be displayed. plotlevel Toggle generation of detail plots in the web log. A level of ‘all’ generates

all plots; ‘summary’ omits detail plots; ‘default’ generates all plots apart from for the hif_applycal task.

output_dir Working directory for pipeline processing. Some pipeline

processing products such as HTML logs and images will be directed to subdirectories of this path.

weblog Generate the web log overwrite Overwrite existing files on import dryrun Run the task (False) or display the task command (True) acceptresults Add the results into the pipeline context
