Generate job names from content digest

Creates a naming function that uses a hash of the input for unique job names.

Usage

digest(prefix = "job", length = 8)

Arguments

prefix

Prefix for the job name

length

Number of characters from the hash to use

Value

A function suitable for use with .name_by parameter

Note

This function masks digest::digest when parade is attached. Prefer name_digest() as an explicit alias to avoid confusion.

Examples

# \donttest{
if (interactive()) {
  # Each unique input gets a unique name
  data <- list(a = 1:10, b = 11:20, a = 1:10)  # Note: 'a' appears twice
  process_data <- function(x) x  # stub for example
  jobs <- slurm_map(data, process_data, .name_by = digest(), .engine = "local")
  # Job names will use hash, with identical inputs getting same hash
}
# }
