Install and Usage

lasTest.sh

The latest version of the test can be run from a shell script from $LAS_HOME/bin/lasTest.sh.

You can get information about how to use the utility directly from it by running it without arguments:

[rhs@dunkel ~/baker]$ bin/lasTest.sh
Missing required option: l
usage: lasTest [-a] [-c] [-D] [-d <DATASET STRING>] [-e] [-f] [-h] -l <THE LAS URL> [-r] [-v <VIEW>] [-V]
 -a,--all Test all products
 -c,--connection Test the data set connections via the file or OPeNDAP URL.
 -D,--DDS used with -c to print each DDS.
 -d,--dataset <DATASET STRING> Test only data sets that contain this string
 -e,--exit Exit on first error.
 -f,--ftds Test F-TDS URLs.
 -h,--help Print help message.
 -l,--LAS <THE LAS URL> The base URL of the LAS to test (http://server.org/las)
 -r,--responses Test product responses.
 -v,--view <VIEW> Test only the specified view, one of x,y,z,t,xy,xz,xt,yz,yt,zt
 -V,--verbose Verbose output.

You must supply the utility the base URL of the LAS that you want to test with the -l option.

For example:

bin/lasTest.sh -l http://myserver.com/las -f - Test all of the F-TDS OPeNDAP connections for this server.
bin/lasTest.sh -l http://myserver.com/las -r -v xy - Make an XY plot of the first variable in each data set.
bin/lasTest.sh -l http://myserver.com/las -c - Test the OPeNDAP or file connection from LAS to each data set in the LAS.

Limitations

1. It only tests 1-D and 2-D plots.

2. It cannot test in-situ datasets.
