mArchiveExec1

Usage

Overview

Given a table of archive images (generated by mArchiveList), calls mArchiveGet on each one in sequence to retrieve all the files into the current directory.

Options

-d level

Prints out additional debugging information; in this version, the only supported level is 1.

Arguments

region.tbl

Table of archive images, generated by mArchiveList.

Result

[struct stat="OK", count=num-images, failed=num-failed]

num-images from region.tbl are retrieved into the current directory. num-failed is a count of failed attempts to retrieve images; turn on debugging to see the errors generated by mArchiveGet.

Messages

OK

[struct stat="OK", count=num-files, failed=num-failed]

ERROR

Table region.tbl needs column 'URL' and can optionally have columns 'fname'/'file' and pixel ranges 'imin'...'jmax'

Examples

First, run mArchiveList to generate a table of image metadata, including URLs:

$ mArchiveList 2mass j m31 0.5 0.5 2mass_m31_j.tbl

[struct stat="OK", count=18]

Next, call mArchiveExec on the metadata table to populate the current directory with the files found by mArchiveList:

$ mArchiveExec 2mass_m31_j.tbl

[struct stat="OK", count=18, failed=0]

$ ls
