NAME

swobscheck - check files in a Swift observation

USAGE

swobscheck obsdir=12345678123

DESCRIPTION

This tool performs keyword and value checks on FITS files in a Swift observation. The optcheck parameter is passed through to swfilecheck.

PARAMETERS

obsdir [directory]

Directory containing observation.

(logfile = obscheck.log) [filename]

Output file for results of check.

(subdirs = no) [boolean]

Check sub-directories of obsdir? The subdirs parameter can be used to check all of the observations in a certain directory. Given a directory structure,

	obsroot/
		12345678001/
		12345678002/
		12345678003/

all three observations can be processed by setting obsdir=obsroot and subdirs=yes.

(swfilecheck = no) [boolean]

Run swfilecheck on each FITS file? See also the optcheck parameter.

(optcheck = NONE) [string]

Value of optcheck to pass to swfilecheck when it is run. Note that it will only be run if swfilecheck=yes. See swfilecheck for help setting optcheck.

(swiftprefix = sw) [string]

Prefix of input files. The test SDC pipeline uses an alternate prefix 'st' for test processings.

(clobber = yes) [boolean]

Overwrite existing output files?

(chatter = 5) [integer] <1-5>

Standard HEAdas chatter parameter.
