Program to add comments to batch wide components in the ITk database for shipping purposes.
Until itk_pdb is pip installable, this should be saved directly to the 'production_database_scripts' directory.
This requires the use of requests, and itkdb. Both can be indtalled using:
pip install requests, itkdb
This module depends on having an up to date inventory CSV file. This can be generated with the inventory2CSV.py script. This is done in the production_database_scipts folder with the command:
python inventory2CSV.py --project S --componentType SENSOR --currentLocation <location> --properties -1 --outfile <output_file_name> --write serialNumber
Where <output_file_name> is a choosen .csv file. For simplicity I use 'sensor_inventory.csv'. If you choose a different name, the following line must be changed in the script:
INVENTORY_FILENAME = 'sensor_inventory.csv'
Change this to whatever <output_file_name> you choose.
To run this command, ensure you are in the 'production_databse_scripts' directory and run the following command:
python add_batch_comments.py --batches <list_of_batch_numbers> --date <date_recieved> --message <string_message_variable>
The <list_of_batch_numbers> parameter is a list of sensor batch numbers of the form VPXxxxxx where the x's form the distinct batch number and are separated by commas.
The <date_recieved> can be found in the inventory file and has the format dd/mm/yyyy
The message must be a string surrounded by quotations.
The example:
python add_batch_comments.py --batches VPX34149, VPX34148 --date 16/07/2020 --message "test comment"
Would add the comment 'test comment' to all sensors from the batches VPX34149 and VPX34148 that arrived on 16/072020.
Note, one can add '''--test''' to prevent the comment from being uploaded as a test to make sure everything is correct.
ex.)
python add_batch_comments.py --batches VPX34149, VPX34148 --date 16/07/2020 --message "test comment" --test
