Re: [HTCondor-users] Notification :- setting "notify_user" as variable not working

[gagan tiwari <gagan.tiwari@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Cole,

       ÂI don't want to use a static string asÂnotify_user becauseÂmany users run jobs and they have differentÂemail addresses. So, I need to use it as a variable in the submit file to achieveÂthat. AndÂ"$(emailid)" is the way to specify variable in the submit file.Â

But somehow it's not working as expected.

Thanks,

Gagan

Hi Gagan,

notify_user should just need user@uid-domain as a string. I am not too proficient with python so I am unsure how "$(emailid)" work, but f"{emailid}" should work. You can also check to see if this is being set correctly by running condor_history ClusterId -af NotifyUserÂ

Hope this helps,

Cole Bollig

Â

Hi Guys,

        ÂI need condor to send email notifications to the job owner.

I have captured the user's email id in a variable and passedÂthat in the submit file but condor doesn't seem to be using it and sending e-mail do owner@uid-domain which is default.Â

I am using following python codes to achieveÂthis :-Â

def submit_jobs():

    emailid = get_email()  ( capturing user email as str )

    emailid = emailid.split() ( capturing user email as list )

    job = htcondor.Submit({
                "executable": "$(bin)",
                "arguments": "$(config)",
                "output": "$(outfile)",
                "error": "$(errfile)",
                "log": "jobstatus.log",
                "request_cpus": "1",
                "request_memory": "2GB",
                "request_disk": "4MB",
                "RunAsOwner": "True",
                "notification": "Always",
                "notify_user": "$(emailid)",
                "should_transfer_files": "No",
                })

I tried passing user email id both as str and as list but nothing worked.

Please let me know what I am missing here.Â

Thanks,

GaganÂ
