How to implement a run_id for batch_run? Similar to NetLogo's behaviorspace-run-number/name

[aoguedao]

Hi all!

I have been working with ABM for just a couple of years and I started that journey working with NetLogo. Now that mesa is really mature I implemented a new mini-project on it.

I understand Batch Run is mesa equivalent to Behavior Space in Netlogo, but I can't find a way to identify each run, similar to behaviorspace-run-number. Is there any way to construct this in batch_run?

My use case is a model with two data outputs, one that I need at the end of each simulation and another that save data each step. I usually run these combinations on a HPC that has a cap of time, that is why I also save some intermediate outputs with a name identified by the behaviorspace-run-number.

I noticed that in the source code there is a run_id value here, however it is not passed to the model class (I think!)

Thanks in advance!
