rmspds4indextools 1.1.0

Introduction
pds4indextools is a set of programs and modules for parsing PDS4 XML labels.
They were created and are maintained by the Ring-Moon Systems Node
of NASA's Planetary Data System (PDS).
The following tools are currently available:

pds4_create_xml_index:
A command-line program to scrape all metadata information from a series of PDS4 XML
labels, usually in a single collection, and generate a summary index file. Such summary
index files may be optionally provided as part of a PDS4 delivery by a data provider,
or may be created by end users to aid in their searching and processing of PDS4
data products.
pds4_create_collection_product:
A command-line program to create a collection product from a collection of PDS4 XML
labels. Collection products are a required part of PDS4 collections and are created by
data providers.

Installation
pds4indextools is available via the rms-pds4indextools package on PyPI and
can be installed with:
pip install rms-pds4indextools

Note that this will install pds4indextools into your current system Python, or into your
currently activated virtual environment (venv), if any.
If you already have the rms-pds4indextools package installed but wish to upgrade to a
more recent version, you can use:
pip install --upgrade rms-pds4indextools

You may also install the index tools using pipx, which will isolate the installation
from your system Python without requiring the creation of a virtual environment. To
install pipx, please see the installation
instructions. Once pipx is available, you
may install pds4indextools with:
pipx install rms-pds4indextools

If you already have the rms-pds4indextools package installed with pipx, you may
upgrade to a more recent version with:
pipx upgrade rms-pds4indextools

Getting Started With pds4_create_xml_index
Once pds4indextools has been installed, you may access the
pds4_create_xml_index
program directly from the command line.
The simplest use scrapes all metadata from all XML labels in a collection and generates an
index file:
pds4_create_xml_index <collection_dir> "**/*.xml"

Many options are available to customize the scraping and generation process, including
limiting which XML elements are scraped, changing the format of the resulting index file,
and generating a PDS4-compliant label. A summary of available options is available
by typing:
pds4_create_xml_index --help

Getting Started With pds4_create_collection_product
Once pds4indextools has been installed, you may access the
pds4_create_collection_product
program directly from the command line.
The simplest use scrapes all XML labels from a collection and generates a collection product:
pds4_create_collection_product <collection_dir> --bundle bundle_name --collection collection_name

This will generate a collection product called collection_<collection_name>.csv in the
given collection directory. Full instructions on usage can be found here:
pds4_create_collection_product --help
