Bear with me as I'm new to Python and coding in general. I was looking to create a script that is able to convert the following common CAN logging formats (ASC, BLF, txt, csv, MF4) to another format (ASC, BLF, txt, csv, MF4). I've already installed the python-can module. As I understand it, there in one already built into that module. When I run the script "can_logconvert.py" I am greeted by the following message:
PS C:\Users\BE\Documents\Python> & C:/Users/BE/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python310/python.exe c:/Users/BE/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python310/Scripts/can_logconvert.py usage: can_logconvert.py [-h] [-s FILE_SIZE] INFILE OUTFILE
Convert a log file from one format to another.
positional arguments:
INFILE Input filename. The type is dependent on the suffix, see can.LogReader.
OUTFILE Output filename. The type is dependent on the suffix, see can.Logger.
options: -h, --help show this help message and exit -s FILE_SIZE, --file_size FILE_SIZE Maximum file size in bytes. Rotate log file when size threshold is reached. can_logconvert.py: error: the following arguments are required: INFILE, OUTFILE
Here's what the script contains:
"""
See :mod:`can.logconvert`.
"""
from can.logconvert import main
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
Given I have (for example) an input file named "input.asc" where would I direct his to? Would it be something I'd put in the console? If so, with what syntax?
Thanks for the time and sorry for my noobness!
