Save current batch¶
Writes the configuration of the currently running batch to an .mzbatch file. The module is meant
to be used inside a batch queue so that every processed dataset is accompanied by the exact batch
configuration that produced it.
The saved file contains the full batch queue with all parameter values and can be re-imported in the batch mode dialog.
Tip
Batches generated by the processing wizard already contain this step. When an export path is configured in the wizard, the batch file is written next to the exported results.
Warning
This module only works while a batch is running. If it is executed outside of batch mode, a warning dialog is shown and the step is skipped without failing the processing.
Tip
To save a pipeline that was not run as a batch, or to recover the batch of an already processed feature list, use Recreating a batch from processed results instead.
Parameters¶
Save batch to (Optional)¶
Location of the .mzbatch file to write.
If the parameter is deactivated or left blank, the module determines a directory automatically:
- the most common export directory used by the export steps of the running batch, or
- if no export step is present, the most common directory of the imported raw data files.
The file is then named autosave_batch.mzbatch in that directory.
Warning
If neither an export nor an import path can be determined, no file is written and a warning dialog asks you to save the batch manually. The batch itself continues.
