Command to generate data and queries showing syntax errors

[Madd-Scientist]

I installed the required directories from the cmd folder manually, and the installation showed no error. Directories I installed: tsbs_generate_data, tsbs_generate_queries, tsbs_load_timescaledb, tsbs_load_influx, tsbs_run_queries_timescaledb, tsbs_run_queries_influx.

On giving the command:

'/home/maddscientist/go/src/github.com/timescale/tsbs/cmd/tsbs_generate_data/main.go' --use-case="iot" --seed=123 --scale=4000     --timestamp-start="2016-01-01T00:00:00Z"     --timestamp-end="2016-01-04T00:00:00Z"     --log-interval="10s" --format="timescaledb"     | gzip > /tmp/timescaledb-data.gz

I get the following error:

/home/maddscientist/go/src/github.com/timescale/tsbs/cmd/tsbs_generate_data/main.go: line 1: //: Is a directory
/home/maddscientist/go/src/github.com/timescale/tsbs/cmd/tsbs_generate_data/main.go: line 2: //: Is a directory

/home/maddscientist/go/src/github.com/timescale/tsbs/cmd/tsbs_generate_data/main.go: line 5: `// ClickHouse pseudo-CSV format (the same as for TimescaleDB)'

On running the command to generate queries:

'/home/maddscientist/go/src/github.com/timescale/tsbs/cmd/tsbs_generate_queries/main.go' --use-case="iot" --seed=123 --scale=4000     --timestamp-start="2016-01-01T00:00:00Z"     --timestamp-end="2016-01-04T00:00:01Z"     --queries=1000 --query-type="breakdown-frequency" --format="timescaledb"     | gzip > /tmp/timescaledb-queries-breakdown-frequency.gz

I get the error:

/home/maddscientist/go/src/github.com/timescale/tsbs/cmd/tsbs_generate_queries/main.go: line 1: //: Is a directory
/home/maddscientist/go/src/github.com/timescale/tsbs/cmd/tsbs_generate_queries/main.go: line 2: //: Is a directory
/home/maddscientist/go/src/github.com/timescale/tsbs/cmd/tsbs_generate_queries/main.go: line 3: package: command not found
/home/maddscientist/go/src/github.com/timescale/tsbs/cmd/tsbs_generate_queries/main.go: line 5: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
/home/maddscientist/go/src/github.com/timescale/tsbs/cmd/tsbs_generate_queries/main.go: line 5: `import ('

These are the same commands as listed on the README page. Any help regarding this would be appreciated.

P.S. If I don't specify the path to the command directory, I get an error saying that the command "tsbs_generate_data" is not found, even after I added the directories to my $PATH. This error was resolved by giving the path in the command itself.

I think this issue is outdated as I can see the command is a bit different in the readme.

@Madd-Scientist feel free to reopen the issue if you get the errors with the updated instructions.
