disruptions.txt

(Summer 2022) Conversion to Pyomo config will cause disruption for many users.

Note: a  release was done just before this change so you can revert to the
last release if you don't have time to deal with the disruption.

See examples such as farmer.  There is a bash script called
sed_config_help.bash that uses sed to do most of the things listed
here for py, but after you run it, some edits are still needed.
Also, you will have to edit slurm and bash scripts by hand.

0. baseparsers should be replaced by config

1. vanilla should be replaced by vanilla_cfg

2. Command line arguments using "with" have had the "with_" removed
   and the default is now False! (So you need, e.g. --xhatshuffle and --lagrangian)
   There are no longer no_ options in config.py

3. If you are using vanilla, the first element of beans should be cfg rather than args, where
    cfg is of type Config

4. For multi-stage problems using --branching-factors on the command line, the
   branching factor list needs to be in quotes.

5. zhat4xhat (and some other confidence interval code) needs --xhatpath on the command
   line before the name of the npy file.

Send an email to DLWoodruff@UCDavis.edu if you want help converting.

BTW: a release was done right before this change.

Documentation notes:

In vanilla examples we have stopped using positional arguments for
the number of scenarios (e.g., in Farmer and UC). Instead --num-scens
is required.
