Overview

In the past Rose provided a wrapper to Cylc providing additional capabilities including workflow installation.

As of Cylc 8 and Rose 2 some of this functionality has been re-built directly in Cylc, the rest has been migrated into this Plugin.

The last versions of Cylc and Rose which use the wrapper are:

• Cylc 7
• Rose 2019

For all later versions please install this plugin into your Cylc/Rose environment for Rose integration.

What This Plugin Does

This plugin provides support for the rose-suite.conf file, namely:

• Jinja2/EmPy template variables.
• Scheduler environment variables.
