Introduction

The TRTFramework config file utility has some standard options and the ability to use custom commands.

If you look at out "default" config file, you'll see all the standard options.

Summary

Tool options:

Option	description
GRL	Activitate the GRL tool (YES or NO)
GRLFiles	Comma separated list of GRL files to use, if default use 2015+2016
PRWConf	Comma separated list of PRW config files (set to none if PRW: NO
PRWLumi	Comma separated list of PRW lumi calc files (set to none if PRW: NO
IDTS	Activate the InDetTrackSelectionTools (YES or NO)
Trig	Activate the trigger tools (YES or NO)
Trig.Electron	Comma separated list of single electron triggers to use
Trig.Dielecton	Comma separated list of dielectron triggers to use
Trig.Muon	Comma separated list of single muon triggers to use
Trig.Dimuon	Comma separated list of dimuon triggers to use
Trig.Misc	Comma separated list of misc. triggers to use

For the selectedTracks(), selectedElectrons(), and selectedMuons() containers:

Option	description
Tracks.p	Track momentum cut in GeV
Tracks.pT	Track transverse momentum cut in GeV
Tracks.eta	Track absolute value eta cut to use
Tracks.nSi	Track number of silicon hits cut (pixel + SCT)
Tracks.nPix	Track number of pixel hits cut
Tracks.nTRT	Track number of TRT hits cut
Tracks.nTRTprec	Track number of TRT precision hits cut
Electrons.p	Electron momentum cut in GeV
Electrons.pT	Electron pT cut in GeV
Electrons.eta	Electron abs eta cut
Electrons.UseTrackCuts	YES or NO to use track cuts on the associated track
Electrons.RelpT	relative pT cut
Electrons.TruthMatched	Require truth matched electron in MC
Electrons.FromZ	Require electron be truth from Z in MC
Electrons.FromJPsi	Require electron be truth from JPsi in MC
Electrons.FromZorJPsi	Require electron be truth from Z OR JPsi in MC
Muons.p	Muon cuts... Self explanatory.

Muons.eta	--
Muons.UseTrackCuts	--
Muons.RelpT	--
Muons.TruthMatched	--
Muons.FromZ	--
Muons.FromJPsi	--
Muons.FromZorJPsi	--

Custom Options

To add a custom option, you simply define it in the config file, list so:

MyCustomOpt1: 5
MyCustomOpt2: 5.5
MyCustomOpt3: YES
MyCustomOpt4: Hello

The main algorithm class xTRT::Algorithm has two functions which will get the xTRT::Config object (one templated function for non strings, and a specific one for strings), and you can grab a custom option from that (in your algorithm's histInitialize() function you can do:

m_myCustomOpt1 = config()->getOpt<int>("MyCustomOpt1");
m_myCustomOpt2 = config()->getOpt<float>("MyCustomOpt2");
m_myCustomOpt3 = config()->getOpt<bool>("MyCustomOpt3");
m_myCustomOpt4 = config()->getStrOpt("MyCustomOpt4");

It is highly recommended to avoid calling this function in execute(). If you have custom options you should define a member variable in your algorithm class (using //!) and set it in histInitialize() or initialize().
