Getting started

Please note, script_downloader has been replaced by the new process below.

rtsutils has been refactored to act more like an installed Python package within the CAVI virtual environment. Code that once added rtsutils to the PYTHONPATH, within each script, has been removed and CAVI configurations modified by the installer placing the package in the PYTHONPATH. This allows for traditional import statements accessing rtsutils modules. A single include statement will be added to the CWMS installation CAVI configuration file during the installation process.

How to install:

1. Copy the contents of rtsutils_init.py
2. Create a new script in the CWMS CAVI/HEC-RTS called rtsutils_init
3. Paste the contents of Step 1 into the new script, saving the script.
4. Run rtsutils_init (recommend running with console output to in case of errors)

Upon successful setup completion, you should see the following:

After restarting the CAVI, you should now have the following scripts available:

How to update:

• Initialization of the rtsutils package provides a script (rtsutils_update.py) to update changes in the rts-utils repo
• Running rtsutils_update.py executes a Go implementation of git pull updating the local copy of any changes
• The user is presented with a message dialog returning results but it is good practice to review the Console Output
