WIBLMultitool

Introduction

The Python source code provides a single script that can be installed to provide a lot of functionality to manipulate WIBL files, and to do local processing of files (mainly for debugging purposes). The wibl command installed with cd wibl-python; pip install . provides sub-commands to implement the functionality:

% wibl -h

    Commands include:
        datasim     Generate test data using Python-native data simulator.
        editwibl    Edit WIBL logger files, e.g., add platform metadata.
        uploadwibl  Upload WIBL logger files to an S3 bucket.
        parsewibl   Read and report contents of a WIBL file.
        dcdbupload  Upload a GeoJSON file to DCDB direct.
        procwibl    Local processing from WIBL file to GeoJSON.

Each sub-command provides a more detailed help/syntax list with the -h option. See the wibl-python/README.md for further details, noting that:

• The validate sub-command assumes that the CSB Schema validator is installed.
• The configuration file required for dcdbupload and procwibl can be generated by editing the parameter file in wibl-python/scripts/desktop/configuration-parameters.sh and then running wibl-python/scripts/desktop/configure-desktop.sh.
