Auxiliary Scripts
=================
The scanloc package also ships with auxiliary scripts for real-time or non-real-time
playbacks and tuning. For these tools, the usual options (:option:`-h`,
:option:`--debug`, etc.) apply. Read the :ref:`scanloc-example` section for
example applications.
.. _sec-scanloc-dump_picks:
dump_picks
----------
:program:`dump_picks` reads picks and amplitudes from a database and writes them
to file or the command line in the given format, by default XML (:term:`SCML`).
Control the database request to filter by
* Author (:option:`--author`) contributing the object,
* Comparison with inventory (:option:`--check-inventory`),
* Object evaluation mode (:option:`--manual`, :option:`--automatic`),
* Region of contributing station (:option:`--region`),
* Time (:option:`--time-window`, :option:`--hours`, :option:`--start`).
Applications
~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Dump picks and amplitudes in XML for further analysis or feeding into another
module such as :ref:`scanloc`.
* Printing statistics and useful information of the retrieved pick and amplitude
set with :option:`--print`.
* Fetch waveforms for picks from SDS archive, a CAPS or FDSN server by
generating stream lists from picks with time windows like with
:cite:t:`scevtstreams` but for picks independent of events and origins.
Consider the option :option:`--type` for choosing the type and
:option:`--margin` for the time margin.
.. hint::
* For retrieving events or origins with picks, amplitudes, etc. from a
database use :cite:t:`scxmldump`.
* Multiple :term:`SCML` files can be merged into one using
:cite:t:`scxmlmerge`.
Examples
~~~~~~~~
* Print command-line help:
.. code-block:: bash
dump_picks -h
* Extract all picks and amplitudes for the given time span made by author
'l1autopick':
.. code-block:: bash
dump_picks -t 2022-01-20T13:52:00~2022-01-20T13:57:00 -d localhost --author l1autopick
* Dump the streams of picks with time windows fetching the corresponding data
from a local CAPS server :cite:p:`caps`.
.. code-block:: bash
dump_picks -d localhost --type 2 --margin 60 | capstool -H localhost -o data.mseed
* Dump the streams of picks with time windows fetching the corresponding data
from a local SDS archive
.. code-block:: bash
dump_picks -d localhost --type 1 --margin 60 | scart -dsE -l - /archive -o data.mseed

string. Times are of course in UTC and separated by a tilde '~'.
.. option:: --maximum-delay arg

creation time and actual time value. Allows identification of picks found in
real time.

XML files using the :program:`playback_picks` option :option:`--print`.
.. option:: --net-sta arg
Type: *string*
Filter picks and amplitudes by network code or network and station code.
Format: NET or NET.STA. Network and station information can be extracted from
XML files using the :program:`playback_picks` along with :option:`--print`,
or inventory (:cite:t:`scinv`), waveforms (:cite:t:`scart`) or
bindings configuration (:cite:t:`scdumpcfg`).
Output
^^^^^^
.. option:: -o, --output arg
Type: *string*
Name of output file. If not given, all data is written to stdout.
.. option:: --type arg
Type: *string*
Default: ``0``
Type of output format.
0 / scml: SCML containing all objects (default if option is not used)
1 / streams: Time windows and streams for all picks like in scevtstreams
2 / caps: Time windows and streams in capstool format
3 / fdsnws: Time windows and streams in FDSN dataselect webservice POST format
Except for type 0, only picks are considered ignoring all other objects.

Output formatted XML. Default is unformatted. Applies only for type 0.
.. option:: --margin arg
Type: *string*
Unit: ``s``
Default: ``300``

comma-separted values (before,after) for asymmetric margins, e.g.
--margin 120,300.
.. _sec-scanloc-playback_picks:
playback_picks
--------------
:program:`playback_picks` plays back picks, amplitudes and origins from XML files
at normal or different speed and sends them to the messaging system. It can also
be used to print statistics and information extracted from the read XML file.
:program:`playback_picks` supports multiple pipelines by defining the message
groups into which objects are injected. The script allows controlling:
* Message groups: Append the message groups for sending picks and amplitudes.
* Mode (:option:`--mode`): In real-time mode a constant number of seconds is added
to the creation and reference times before sending an object to the messaging
for mimicking real-time situations at current time. The seconds to add is
derived from the time of the first object. Default mode is *historic*.
* Speed (:option:`--speed`): The speed factor to use.
* Start (:option:`--jump`): Ignore the first objects within the given number of
seconds.
* Timing (:option:`--timing`): Define the sorting of the objects. Default is
*creationTime*. Consider the comments on timing in section
:ref:`scanloc-example`.
.. important::
'creationTime' should be considered for playing back origins since their
actual origin time values are always before picks and amplitudes.
Examples
~~~~~~~~
* Print the command-line help:
.. code-block:: sh
playback_picks -h
* Just print statistics of the read XML including author information and stream
codes on which picks and amplitudes were measured. The NSLC information can be
used to extract waveforms or to set up corresponding bindings:
.. code-block:: sh
playback_picks --print picks.xml
* Make a playback injecting picks and origins into different message groups but
amplitudes into the same default group, e.g., of different pipelines.
'creationTime' is used as a time reference since origin times are before times
of picks and amplitudes and considering 'pickTime' would distort the order of
the objects unrealistically:
.. code-block:: sh
playback_picks origins.xml l1picks.xml:L1PICK:AMPLITUDE:L1LOCATION --timing creationTime
Command-Line Options
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
:program:`playback_picks [options]`
Playback
^^^^^^^^
.. option:: --authors arg
Type: *list:string*
Default: ``None``
Author of objects to filter before playing back. Objects from all other
authors are ignored. Separate multiple authors by comma.
.. option:: -j, --jump arg
Type: *double*
Unit: ``minute``
Jump in time by given value ignoring the corresponding objects.
.. option:: --list
Just list important pick information from the read XML file and then exit
without playing back. The sorting of the list depends on '--timing'.
Information include: phase hint, pick time, stream ID, author, time to
previous pick, delay.
.. option:: --mode arg
Default: ``historic``
Type: *string*
Values: ``historic, realTime``
Playback mode. 'realTime' mimics current situation, 'historic' preserves all
times.
.. option:: -o, --object arg
Type: *list:string*
Default: ``None``
Values: ``pick,amplitude,origin``
Limit the playback to the given list of objects.
.. option:: --print
Just print some statistics of the read XML file and then exit without playing
back. The list of stream codes (NSLC) is printed to stdout. All other
information is printed to stderr. The NSLC information can be used, e.g., for
filtering waveforms (:cite:t:`scart`) or inventory (:cite:t:`invextr`), for
creating global bindings or applying author filtering, e.g., in
:ref:`dump_picks <sec-scanloc-dump_picks>`.
.. option:: --speed arg
Default: ``1``
Type: *double*
Speed of playback.
1: true speed.
.. option:: --timing arg
Default: ``creationTime``
Type: *string*
Values: ``pickTime,creationTime``
Timing reference: 'pickTime' plays back in order of actual times of picks,
amplitudes and origins, 'creationTime' considers their creation times instead.
Use 'pickTime' if creation times are not representative of the order of
objects, e.g., when created in playbacks. 'creationTime' should be considered
for playing back origins since their actual origin time values are always
before picks and amplitudes.
