gx-ingest [options] [files]
gx-ingest, part of the gx-map system, is an administrative command. It reads one or more existing grid-mapfiles (or stdin if no file name is specified). It writes to stdout a shell script that invokes the gx-request command for each entry in the input file(s).
The gx-ingest command, and the script it generates, can be used to import existing grid-mapfiles, possibly generated manually or by other tools, into the gx-map system.
Any errors in the input file(s) will appear as comments in the
generated script.
Be sure to examine the generated script carefully before running it.
gx-ingest <DIR/grid-mapfile > ingest.sh >>
chmod +x ingest.sh
vi ingest.sh # make sure the script is correct
./ingest.sh
Option processing is done using the Perl Getopt::Long module.
Options may be specified with a single or double leading '-' character. Option names may be abbreviated to whatever is unique. Arguments may be separated either by a blank or by an '=' character. For example, ``-foobar 42'', ``--foobar=42'', and ``-foob 42'' would all be equivalent.
