* Untested Debian and xUbuntu packages available through OpenSUSE
|
|
|
|
|
build service:

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Using --retries a job will be retried on another computer if it
|
|
|
|
|
fails. This is useful if some jobs fail for no apparent reason (such
|
|
|
|
|
as network failure).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* BSD xargs -o (open /dev/tty) is now default for the job running in
|
|
|
|
|
foreground. Useful for interactive commands like:
|
|
|
|
|
ls | parallel -Xuj1 vi
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* GNU sql now supports SQLite.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Renamed .dburl.aliases to .sql/aliases and /etc/sql/aliases.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* GNU sql now support --list-tables
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Alias for DBURL can contain '?query' part with %-quoting.

|
* Using --shebang GNU Parallel can be used as the parser for a script.
|
|
|
|
|
E.g: #!/usr/bin/parallel --shebang traceroute (followed by lines of
|
|
|
|
|
hosts)
|
|
|
|
|
|

* sql - a small script to access sql bases from the command line which
|
|
|
|
|
is a handy companion to parallel --colsep

|
|
* Counting semaphore functionality: start a job in the background. If
|
|
|
|
|
N jobs are already running, wait for one to complete. Examples:
|
|
|
|
|
sem 'sleep 2; echo foo'; sem 'sleep 1; echo bar'; sem --wait
|
|
|
|
|
sem -j2 'sleep 2; echo foo'; sem -j2 'sleep 1; echo bar'; sem --wait
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* With --colsep a table can be used as input. Example:
|
|
|
|
|
cat tab_sep_table | parallel --colsep '\t' echo col1 {1} col2 {2}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* --trim can remove white space around arguments.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* --sshloginfile '..' means use ~/.parallel/sshloginfile
|
|
|

* Arguments can now be given on the command line. Example:
|
|
|
|
|
parallel bzip2 ::: *.txt
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* xapply like functionality. Example:
|
|
|
|
|
parallel diff {1} {2} :::: filelist1 filelist2
|
|
|
|
|
parallel diff {1} {2} ">"{1.}-{2.}.diff :::: filelist1 filelist2

* New video showing the new options.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* 100% options complete with xargs. All options for xargs can now be
|
|
|
|
|
used in GNU Parallel - even the more exotic.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* --basefile for transferring basedata. When running jobs on remote
|
|
|
|
|
computers --basefile will transfer files before the first jobs is
|
|
|
|
|
run. It can be used to transfer data that remains the same for each
|
|
|
|
|
job such as scripts or lookup tables.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* --progress shows progress. To see how many jobs is running on each
|
|
|
|
|
server use --progress. It can be turned on even after GNU Parallel
|
|
|
|
|
is started.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* --eta shows estimated time left in seconds.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* --halt-on-error stops if an error occurs. GNU Parallel will default
|
|
|
|
|
to run all jobs - even if some of them fail. With --halt-on-error
|
|
|
|
|
GNU Parallel can ignore errors, wait for the currently running jobs
|
|
|
|
|
to finish, or stop immediately when an error occurs.
