Collecting dilution fridge metrics from bluefors/oxford log files

Cryometrics

Cryometrics is a command line utility for processing log files for Bluefors and Oxford dilution refrigerators. It is primarily used as an input/processing daemon for telegraf, but can also be used for one off conversions of the Oxford .vcl files.

Installation

Clone the GitHub repository and install via pip.

git clone https://github.com/larchen/cryometrics.git

cd cryometrics
python -m pip install -e .

This will install the package as well as the command line script.

Usage

To convert an Oxford log file to a human readable csv, run

# On Windows
cryometrics.exe oxford convert path/to/logfile.vcl > path/to/outfile.csv

# On OS X/Linux
cryometrics oxford convert path/to/logfile.vcl > path/to/outfile.csv

The script will output the converted logs to stdout, which can be redirected to your file of choice.
