\usage{
batchMap(
fun,
...,
args = list(),
more.args = list(),
reg = getDefaultRegistry()
)
}
\arguments{
\item{fun}{[\code{function}]\cr
Function to map over arguments provided via \code{...}.
Parameters given via \code{args} or \code{...} are passed as-is, in the respective order and possibly named.
If the function has the named formal argument \dQuote{.job}, the \code{\link{Job}} is passed to the function
on the slave.}
\item{...}{[ANY]\cr
Arguments to vectorize over (list or vector).
Shorter vectors will be recycled (possibly with a warning any length is not a multiple of the longest length).
Mutually exclusive with \code{args}.
Note that although it is possible to iterate over large objects (e.g., lists of data frames or matrices), this usually
hurts the overall performance and thus is discouraged.}
\item{args}{[\code{list} | \code{data.frame}]\cr
Arguments to vectorize over as (named) list or data frame.
Shorter vectors will be recycled (possibly with a warning any length is not a multiple of the longest length).
Mutually exclusive with \code{...}.}
\item{more.args}{[\code{list}]\cr
A list of further arguments passed to \code{fun}.
Default is an empty list.}
\item{reg}{[\code{\link{Registry}}]\cr
Registry. If not explicitly passed, uses the default registry (see \code{\link{setDefaultRegistry}}).}
}
\value{
[\code{\link{data.table}}] with ids of added jobs stored in column \dQuote{job.id}.
}
\description{
A parallel and asynchronous \code{\link[base]{Map}}/\code{\link[base]{mapply}} for batch systems.
Note that this function only defines the computational jobs.
The actual computation is started with \code{\link{submitJobs}}.
Results and partial results can be collected with \code{\link{reduceResultsList}}, \code{\link{reduceResults}} or
\code{\link{loadResult}}.
For a synchronous \code{\link[base]{Map}}-like execution, see \code{\link{btmapply}}.
