Move detector temperature information into a remote database. #260

Open cmillion opened 7 years ago

The only purpose of the SCST file in gPipeline right now is to extract the FDTTDC (FUV detector temperature) for correction of relative offsets. It would make more sense to put all of these temperatures into a per-eclipse lookup table at a MAST database rather than require the SCST file.

That's sounds straightforware, you don't by chance have some python code handy that would take a file as input and then spit out the eclipse number and any needed data to sysout and I can just redirect to a file, I can run it on all the SCST files and load the data into the DB. Alternatively I can use some tools that I'm familiar with to do it but that might take longer.

Cool. I can write that code very quickly.
