This parses input data from stdin or file(s) into individual messages (frames) and
dumps some information about them to stdout.
 
Usage:
 
    parsertool [flags] [<input> ...]
 
Where:
 
    -h       -- Print program help screen, and exit
    -V       -- Print program, version and license information, and exit
    -v / -q  -- Increase / decrease logging verbosity, multiple flags accumulate
    -x       -- Print hexdump of each message, not with -c
    -s       -- Save each (!) message into a separate (!) file in the current directory, not with -c
    -f <filter> -- Filter input, where <filter> is a comma-separated list of full or partial message.
                names. Multiple -f can be given.
    -c       -- Write messages to stdout instead of printing info, useful with -f
    <input>  -- File or device to read data from (instead of stdin)
 
Examples:
 
    Parse messages from a file:
 
        parsertool fpsdk_common/test/data/mixed.bin
 
    Read data from stdin:
 
        cat fpsdk_common/test/data/mixed.bin | parsertool
        parsertool < fpsdk_common/test/data/mixed.bin
 
    Read from a TCP/IP socket server:
 
        nc 10.0.1.1 21000 | parsertool
 
    Read from a serial port (such as a USB to serial converter):
 
        stty -F /dev/ttyUSB0 115200 raw -echo; parsertool /dev/ttyUSB0
 
    Filter all FP_A-ODOMETRY:
 
        parsertool -f FP_A-ODOMETRY fpsdk_common/test/data/mixed.bin
 
    Filter all NMEA and FP_A messages. Either command does the same.
 
        parsertool -f FP_A -f NMEA fpsdk_common/test/data/mixed.bin
        parsertool -f FP_A,NMEA fpsdk_common/test/data/mixed.bin
 
    Filter all NMEA and FP_A messages and store to output.txt file:
 
        parsertool -f FP_A,NMEA -c fpsdk_common/test/data/mixed.bin > output.txt
 
 

Examples

Print info on all messages found in a file:

$ parsertool fpsdk_common/test/data/mixed.bin
