PAT 2 log file location

I'm looking into using scripting to run the analysis on an OSServer. I followed JS files and been able to boil it down to this line which runs the analysis. I noticed there're log after every command and all of that should be stored in a file somewhere. For that line specifically, it's followed by if (vm.Message.showDebug()) vm.$log.debug('FULL run_analysis command: ', full_command);

My questions are:

where can I find the log file which shows the full_command (I installed PAT as part of the latest 2.9 OS installer)
What's the best way to use scripting to automate the workflow and bypass PAT?

2.1 Create project Json/Zip

2.2 Run analysis on already started server

Thanks

@Abekhit this isn't something that we publicly support at all, but I have setup a repository that shows workflow that converts OSW to OSA json and sets up the ZIP file as well. The bottom of the readme shows how run the meta-CLI which will run an OSA on an already running server https://github.com/DavidGoldwasser/os...

Note, that PAT does need to be installed, and, unless you enter full path in the command line, you need to setup environmental variable, or on mac line in .bash_profile that looks like this export PATH="/Applications/OpenStudio-2.9.1/ParametricAnalysisTool.app/Contents/Resources/OpenStudio-server/bin":$PATH
