What do you think? I remember in the past we have something similar related to some Nokia device and I can't remember how it works from top of my head, but after seeing [2], I barely remember a process to import files (either from local machine or attached device) and then apply some filter (located in "imports" directory) to parse data successfully. So under "plugins" directory we would store ways to fetch data and under "imports" the way to parse retrieved data. I am sorry I can't provide a more detailed description. Long time since I touch pytrainer's code but I hope it helps. 0:) Best regards, David [1] https://github.com/pytrainer/pytrainer/wiki/Development-guide#plugin-development [2] https://github.com/pytrainer/pytrainer/blob/master/imports/file_gpxplusNokia.py ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ One dashboard for servers and applications across Physical-Virtual-Cloud Widest out-of-the-box monitoring support with 50+ applications Performance metrics, stats and reports that give you Actionable Insights Deep dive visibility with transaction tracing using APM Insight. http://ad.doubleclick.net/ddm/clk/290420510;117567292;y _______________________________________________ Pytrainer-devel mailing list Pytrainer-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/pytrainer-devel
