Test Dataset Automator

This script is used to create test datasets for scans of different sensors such as RGD, 3D, IR etc. .

Usage - Python Script

Use the python script when you want to recursively generate test datasets for all scans within a directory. python3 ProcessFullDirectory.py -p <path containing multiple scan dates> -u <netid> -n <#>

Flags - Python Script

-p: This flag is used to specify the source path containing scan directories.
-- Example: /iplant/home/shared/phytooracle/season_14_sorghum_yr_2022/level_0/scanner3DTop would permit processing of all datasets within this directory.
-n: This flag should be followed by the number of sub-directories from the example scan that should be included in the test dataset
-u: This flag should be followed by the username of the user running this script. Used for accessing the xdisk

Usage - Shell Script

./automator.sh -p [pathname] -u [username] -t [test_dataset_name(DON'T INCLUDE .tar.gz)] -n [number_of_files]

Flags - Shell Script

-p: This flag is used to specify the source path for the example scan used to create the test dataset.
-n: This flag should be followed by the number of sub-directories from the example scan that should be included in the test dataset
-u: This flag should be followed by the username of the user running this script. Used for accessing the xdisk
-t: This flag is used to specify the name of the test dataset to be created. Do not include .tar.gz in this name, that would be added by the script

Note: This script is expected to work only on the UA HPC, and might require modifications in order to be functional on other systems.
