Changing File Permissions

[ax3l]

How can I change the permissions (chmod .. file) of a single file?

I see the perms attribute, but not sure how to do it.

While I need this currently for a single file, quite common shell commands I need at NERSC are:

find . -type d -exec chmod g+rxw {} \;
find . -type f -exec chmod g+rw {} \;

How can I do this via the SFAPI (without writing a whole job script)?

Hi @ax3l, the REST that sfapi_client uses, doesn't support an endpoint to chmod files directly. You would need to use the run method to execute a chmod command, something like this:

async with AsyncClient() as client:
    perlmutter = await client.compute(Machine.perlmutter)
    r = await perlmutter.run("chmod ...")

Thank you, @cjh1 !! :)
