🌸 DESCRIPTION

Okay so bestie, acq2hdf5 is the tool that takes an AcqKnowledge file and turns it into an HDF5 file. Literally that's the whole vibe 💅✨

🎀 Usage

acq2hdf5 [options] <acq_file> <hdf5_file>
acq2hdf5 -h | --help
acq2hdf5 --version

---

👑 OPTIONS

• --values-as=<type> — Okay this one's a lot 🙈 It saves the raw measurement values, which are stored as integers in the base file, as either raw or scaled. If you store them as raw, you can convert to scaled later using the scale and offset attributes on the channel. If you store scaled values, then scale and offset will be 1 and 0. Default: scaled 💜
• --compress=<method> — How the data gets compressed. Your options are gzip, lzf, or none. Default: gzip 🫶
• --data-only — Only saves the data and the required headers. It skips the journal and marker info, no cap 🧚
• -v, --verbose — Prints extra messages so you can debug. Main character energy for troubleshooting 🔥
