# File
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `file` node-type can be used to log or replay sample values to disk.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Every `file` node supports the following settings:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`in` specifies the path to a file which contains data for replaying.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`out` specifies the path to a file where samples will be dumped.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`mode`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`rate`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
## File Format
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This node-type uses a simple human-readable format to save samples:
|
|
|
|
|
The format is similiar to a conventional CSV (comma seperated values) file.
|
|
|
|
|
Every line in a file correspondents to a message / sample of simulation data.
|
|
|
|
|
The columns of a line are seperated by whitespaces (tabs or spaces).
|
|
|
|
|
The columns are defined as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Floating point timestamp in seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 (aka Unix Epoch ).
|
|
|
|
|
2. Up to `MSG_VALUES` floating point values per sample. The values are seperated by whitespaces as well.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
