How do I resume a run, or rerun everything from scratch?

Most CartLoader modules use Makefile-based execution behavior:

  • If outputs already exist, completed steps are typically skipped.
  • Use --restart to ignore existing outputs and rerun all steps.
  • Use --dry-run to generate the Makefile and inspect planned commands without executing.

Practical workflow

  1. Run normally first.
  2. If a run was interrupted, rerun the same command to continue from missing targets.
  3. If inputs/parameters changed and you want a clean rerun, add --restart.
  4. If you want to inspect what will run, add --dry-run.

# Inspect commands only
cartloader run_ficture2 ... --dry-run

# Force full rerun
cartloader run_ficture2 ... --restart
