I believe this is already how mkdtemp works? https://docs.python.org/3/library/tempfile.html#tempfile.mkdtemp. The first place it should look to decide the tmpdir folder is whatever is specified by the TMPDIR env var.

if os.environ.get('TMPDIR') is not None:
root_temp_folder = os.environ.get('TMPDIR')
elif os.path.exists('/local_disk0/'): # Probably we are on MLR, so we have to use /local_disk0
root_temp_folder = '/local_disk0/temp'
os.makedirs(root_temp_folder, exist_ok=True)
local_folder = os.path.join(tempfile.mkdtemp(prefix=root_temp_folder), local_folder)

filename = str(filename)
remote_file_name = str(remote_file_name) if remote_file_name is not None else None
