Detailed Description

Write the process description Here

A process that does nothing to dataflow but starts a server listening through TRestMessenger metadata interface to get new files to add to TRestRun.

Once placed in the process chain, it will call TRestRun to hang up at the end of external file. Then it will listen through TRestMessenger specific message. If the message is valid, it will call TRestRun to add file lively

For example, in bash window 1, we launch restManager using example rml:

restManager --c realtimeCoboAnalysis.rml --d 7786 --batch --i

"/data2/2MM/M1/graw/CoBo_AsAd*_2020-07-13T13:43:13*_0000.graw" --o abc.root

Here --d 7786 means we define the run number as 7786. REST will run the process And hang up after the file is finished. Then in bash window 2, we run:

restSendMessage 116027 "7786->/data2/2MM/M1/graw/CoBo_AsAd2_2020-07-13T13:43:13.698_0001.graw"

Here 116027 is a token for TRestMessenger connection, defined in the previous rml. This command means sending a message to token 116027 poll telling to add a new file to run 7786. We can see in window 1 the process runs again. Finally in window 2 we input:

restSendMessage 116027 "7786->finish"

We can see from window 1 the process quit normally after all the files has been processed.
