Description

NAME bufr_set

DESCRIPTION

Sets key/value pairs in the input BUFR file and writes each message to the output_file. It fails when an error occurs (e.g. key not found).

USAGE

bufr_set [options] file file ... output_file

OPTIONS

-s key[:{s|d|i}]=value,key[:{s|d|i}]=value,...: Key/values to set. For each key a string (key:s), a double (key:d) or an integer (key:i) type can be defined. By default the native type is set.
-p key[:{s|d|i}],key[:{s|d|i}],...: Declaration of keys to print. For each key a string (key:s), a double (key:d) or an integer (key:i) type can be requested. Default type is string.
-P key[:{s|d|i}],key[:{s|d|i}],...: As -p adding the declared keys to the default list.
-w key[:{s|d|i}]=value,key[:{s|d|i}]=value,...: Where clause. Set is only executed for BUFR messages matching all the key/value constraints. If a BUFR message does not match the constraints it is copied unchanged to the output_file. This behaviour can be changed setting the option -S. For each key a string (key:s), a double (key:d) or an integer (key:i) type can be defined. Default type is string. Note: only one -w clause is allowed.
-7: Does not fail when the message has wrong length
-S: Strict. Only messages matching all the constraints are copied to the output file
-V: Version.
-g: Copy GTS header.
-f: Force. Force the execution not to fail on error.
-v: Verbose.
-h: Display this help text and exit.
