Is there any way to export the stations I added by searching through Oscar tool?

[KashifProg]

Hello,

I am going to upgrade my wis2box from release wis2box-1.0b7 to the latest release wis2box-1.0.0rc1 and I am assuming the stations I have already added to web-app will be removed. I did not create any meta data file instead I imported all the stations from Oscar tool.

Is there any way I can export all the stations from existing env and import back in new env? or if there is a file in which all these stations data is saved which I can take backup and restore in new env?

Thanks,
Kashif

Hi,

I am sorry but there is no export feature. :/

I recommend recreating your station-list using the command-line functions that import data from OSCAR as this relatively easy and can be scripted if required.

To do this first install wis2box-1.0.0rc1 on a clean instance (removed old docker images and docker volumes)

Then create your dataset.

Then re-create your station-list from command-line functions as follows:

python3 wis2box-ctl.py login
echo "station_name,wigos_station_identifier,traditional_station_identifier,facility_type,latitude,longitude,elevation,barometer_height,territory_name,wmo_region" > new_station_list.csv
wis2box metadata station get 0-20000-0-12345 >> /data/wis2box/new_station_list.csv
wis2box metadata station get 0-20000-0-12346 >> /data/wis2box/new_station_list.csv
wis2box metadata station get 0-20000-0-12347 >> /data/wis2box/new_station_list.csv
...

And finally you can import the data and associate the stations to your topic-hierarchy using the command:

wis2box metadata station publish-collection --path  /data/wis2box/new_station_list.csv --topic-hierarchy origin/a/wis2/ro-rnimh-test/data/core/weather/surface-based-observations/synop

Thank you Maakie for providing command line steps to recreate the stations.
