Some DX4WIN users might find this useful. I have not tried it myself. ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Trevor Stone via groups.io <tstone=trevorstone....@groups.io> Date: Tue, Feb 28, 2023 at 12:56 AM Subject: [adifdev] New command-line tool for transforming ADIF files To: <adif...@groups.io>
ADIF Multitool, a command-line "Swiss Army knife" for processing ADIF files is ready for its first public release v0.1.0. Code and documentation are at https://github.com/flwyd/adif-multitool Installation is via the Go tool: go install github.com/flwyd/adif-multitool/adifmt@latest This program (`adifmt`) started as a solution for converting my logs from paper to Google Sheets to CSV to ADIF for import into the POTA website. It supports conversion to and from ADI, ADX, CSV, and JSON[1]. It supports validating ADIF data types and enum values, and fixing some data formats to comply (e.g. "2023-02-28" to "20230228" and decimal GPS coordinates to the ADIF Location type). It also supports programmatic edits like changing, adding, or removing fields and inferring one field from others like BAND from FREQ and GRIDSQUARE from LAT/LON. It's designed to be easy to use from shell scripts or other automation scenarios. It could also be useful as a supplementary utility to other logging programs. It's still "version zero" so interfaces are subject to change; if anyone uses adifmt for automation I would love to hear about your use case and whether the current interface works for you. I've attempted to adhere to the ADIF spec while still preserving user input. (For example, it won't reject "<CALL:8>ME MAYBE" since it's a valid string. It will also pass through fields which aren't part of the ADIF spec.) It's possible that I've misinterpreted something in the spec, or have introduced bugs. If your software produces any log files that adifmt can't handle correctly or vice versa, please open a GitHub issue. [1] Lacking an official ADIF JSON spec, I went with something simple that would be easy to handle with `jq` etc. 73 de WT0RJ, Trevor -- =-=-=-= Trevor Stone -=- [Flwyd] -=- <tstone @ trevorstone.org> =-=-=-= Computer science, eclectic philosophy, games, wits, esoterics, odd hats https://trevorstone.org/ Thou wenching fool-born gudgeon! {embrace surprise} PUBLIC SPEAKERS do it orally.
