Pelican Command Line

Build Status License Release Downloads for all releases Go Report

The Pelican command line tool allows one to use a Pelican federation as a client and serve datasets through running a Pelican origin service.

For more information on Pelican, see the Pelican Platform page.

For documentation on using the Pelican Platform, see the Pelican Platform documentation page.

Testing and Usage

Run the following command to download a test file (/test/query1) from the configured federation:

$ pelican object get /test/query1 ./

Running an Pelican origin

To launch a Pelican origin, run the following:

pelican origin serve -f https://director.example.com -v /tmp/stash/:/test

Running an OSDF origin or client

The Open Science Data Federation (OSDF) is a well-known Pelican federation in support of the science and engineering communities in the US.

To launch an origin using OSDF defaults, rename the output binary from pelican to osdf. Then, run:

osdf origin serve -v /tmp/stash/:/test

Similarly, the osdf binary can be used to download from the OSDF:

$ osdf object get /osgconnect/public/dweitzel/blast/queries/query1 ./

To ease the transition of stashcp users to pelican, the tool can also be renamed or symlinked to stashcp:

$ stashcp /osgconnect/public/dweitzel/blast/queries/query1 ./

and it shares the same defaults and behavior as stashcp.

Building

Building is performed with the goreleaser tool. To build a snapshot (not release):

$ goreleaser --clean --snapshot

The binaries will be located in ./dist directory.
