The shefdss_util Module

This module contains functions for converting tabular sensor and parameter files to .csv format.

• make_sensor_csv(
    col_filename: str,
    csv_filename: Optional[str] = None
  ) -> int
  

  Reads a columnar sensor file and generates an eqivalent .csv sensor file. If csv_filename is not specified, it will be the same as col_filename, with the extension of .csv.

• make_parameter_csv(
    col_filename: str,
    csv_filename: Optional[str] = None
  ) -> int
  

  Reads a columnar parameter file and generates an eqivalent .csv parameter file. If csv_filename is not specified, it will be the same as col_filename, with the extension of .csv.

Both functions return 0 on success an another value on failure.

Example

from shef.util.shefdss_util import make_sensor_csv, make_parameter_csv

# generate /path/to/sensor_file.csv
make_sensor_csv("/path/to/sensor_file.txt")
# generate /path/to/parameter_file.csv
make_parameter_csv("/path/to_parameter_file.txt")
