Get expo loser data: Download and run TortoiseHG
Clone (or update) from the repository.
If you are using a mac you might have to do it with the command line, and then open it in the workbench
hg clone ssh://expo@expo.survex.com/loser
Do the same with tunneldata repository (which is also mercurial type).
Now you need to copy out the surveyscans, which are a vast set of binary files. First get the directory structure of the scans for all the years by getting a command window open in the directory containing the tunneldata directory and typing:
rsync -av -f"+ /" -f"- " expo@expo.survex.com:expofiles/surveyscans .
Now you can selectively download by year, like this:
rsync -av expo@expo.survex.com:expofiles/surveyscans/2017/ surveyscans/2017/
Now you should be able to run tunnel and look at your data
(If you get a background image not loading, check the full file name for it; in case it starts with "expofiles/surveyscans" and delete the "expofiles" part of the file path)
how do I put an updated svx file onto the repository?
You need to have installed mercurial (hg). It has a UI for windows known as TortoiseHG. Look for TortoiseHG workbench and use that to see the files and all their history. Ask becka for details
One command line: hg pull hg update hg add yourfile.xml hg commit -uyourname
[ this throws you into VI. Hit "i" then type your comment. Then do
hg push
You can add files in and do it the other direction like so: rsync -av surveyscans/2017/ expo@expo.survex.com:expofiles/surveyscans/2017/
(It's completely futile trying to get rsync to work on windows, I've found. Best to run these commands under a unix operating system and copy across using an SD card.)
Bugs for tunnel can be posted here: https://bitbucket.org/goatchurch/tunnelx/issues?status=new&status=open
Will move this into wiki
Need to download survey data, tunnel data, scans and make survex and tunnel able to run
