Get Parameter Info CLI

This script allows the user to get station's parameter information such as ID number and name from Dataex server. This tool can download in either csv or json file.

Info

Observation station Id numbers can be obtained by executing dataex_obs_station_list.py.

Usage

$ dataex_obs_parameter_list.py --station_id <int> --output_format <str> --output <str>

Tip

Option names too long, you can always use their short forms. Check using --help

Options

output_format : str
              json, table or csv  

station_id  : int
              station id     

output      : str
              output filename

If output_type is not specified then it defaults to table. Further, in this case, if output is also not specified, the data is displayed in tabular form in the terminal.

Example

dataex_obs_parameter_list.py --station_id 53 --output_format csv --output ./param_info.csv

Here, data is downloaded in a csv file named as param_info.csv in the current directory.
