Hi all, I would like to add a comment in the metadata of a generated vector map but the content is shortened. I'm in the NorthCarolina mapset, from an ipython shell:
{{{ In [1]: !v.buffer --overwrite input=busroute6@PERMANENT output=buff__busroute6 distance=10 In [2]: !v.info buff__busroute6 +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Name: buff__busroute6 | | Mapset: user1 | | Location: nc_spm_08_grass7 | | Database: /home/pietro/docdat/gis/ | | Title: NC State University bus service Wolfline route 6 (lines m | | Map scale: 1:1 | | Name of creator: helena | | Organization: NC OneMap | | Source date: Thu Mar 15 23:35:50 2007 | | Timestamp (first layer): none | |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Map format: native | |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Type of map: vector (level: 2) | | | | Number of points: 0 Number of centroids: 1 | | Number of lines: 0 Number of boundaries: 36 | | Number of areas: 4 Number of islands: 4 | | | | Map is 3D: No | | Number of dblinks: 0 | | | | Projection: Lambert Conformal Conic | | | | N: 227741.05646361 S: 226151.51091547 | | E: 639360.09470206 W: 635143.56812813 | | | | Digitization threshold: 0 | | Comment: | | | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ }}} The command that generate the map is missing! Should I open a ticket on v.buffer? Let's add the command manually: {{{ In [3]: from grass.pygrass.vector import VectorTopo In [4]: with VectorTopo('buff__busroute6') as buff: ....: buff.comment = 'v.buffer --overwrite input=busroute6@PERMANENT output=buff__busroute6 distance=10' ....: buff.write_header() ....: In [5]: !v.info buff__busroute6 +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Name: buff__busroute6 | | Mapset: user1 | | Location: nc_spm_08_grass7 | | Database: /home/pietro/docdat/gis/ | | Title: NC State University bus service Wolfline route 6 (lines m | | Map scale: 1:1 | | Name of creator: helena | | Organization: NC OneMap | | Source date: Thu Mar 15 23:35:50 2007 | | Timestamp (first layer): none | |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Map format: native | |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Type of map: vector (level: 2) | | | | Number of points: 0 Number of centroids: 1 | | Number of lines: 0 Number of boundaries: 36 | | Number of areas: 4 Number of islands: 4 | | | | Map is 3D: No | | Number of dblinks: 0 | | | | Projection: Lambert Conformal Conic | | | | N: 227741.05646361 S: 226151.51091547 | | E: 639360.09470206 W: 635143.56812813 | | | | Digitization threshold: 0 | | Comment: | | v.buffer --overwrite input=busroute6@PERMANENT output=buff__busroute6 | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ }}} As you can see the Comment string is shortened... but in the header file is written correctly: {{{ In [6]: !cat /nc_spm_08_grass7/user1/vector/buff__busroute6/head ORGANIZATION: NC OneMap DIGIT DATE: Mar 16 7 DIGIT NAME: helena MAP NAME: NC State University bus service Wolfline route 6 (lines map) MAP DATE: Thu Mar 15 23:35:50 2007 MAP SCALE: 1 OTHER INFO: v.buffer --overwrite input=busroute6@PERMANENT output=buff__busroute6 distance=10 PROJ: 99 ZONE: 0 MAP THRESH: 0.000000 }}} Instead the raster equivalent: r.info it is able to handle a long line. {{{ In [11]: !r.info elevation +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Map: elevation Date: Tue Nov 7 01:09:51 2006 | | Mapset: PERMANENT Login of Creator: helena | | Location: nc_spm_08_grass7 | | DataBase: /home/pietro/docdat/gis/ | | Title: South-West Wake county: Elevation NED 10m ( elev_ned10m ) | | Timestamp: none | |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | | | Type of Map: raster Number of Categories: 255 | | Data Type: FCELL | | Rows: 1350 | | Columns: 1500 | | Total Cells: 2025000 | | Projection: Lambert Conformal Conic | | N: 228500 S: 215000 Res: 10 | | E: 645000 W: 630000 Res: 10 | | Range of data: min = 55.57879 max = 156.3299 | | | | Data Description: | | generated by r.proj | | | | Comments: | | r.proj input="ned03arcsec" location="northcarolina_latlong" mapset="\ | | helena" output="elev_ned10m" method="cubic" resolution=10 | | | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ }}} should I open a bug on this?
