+
+
+PurpleAirDataLoggerHelpers.construct_store_sensor_data_type(raw_data) list
+

A method to build the dict data type that the store_sensor_data method expects.

+
+
Parameters:
+

raw_data (dict) – The return value from either padl_obj.request_members_data or +padl_obj.request_multiple_sensors_data.

+
+
+

:return A list full of the dict data type that the store_sensor_data method expects.

+
+ +
+
+PurpleAirDataLoggerHelpers.flatten_single_sensor_data(raw_data) dict
+

A method to flatten the raw data from a single sensor request. This makes our logic downstream easier.

+
+
Parameters:
+

raw_data (dict) – The return value from padl_obj.request_sensor_data.

+
+
+

:return A single level dict full request_sensor_data data.

+
+ +
+
+PurpleAirDataLoggerHelpers.generate_common_arg_parser(argparse_description='')
+

A function to generate the common arguments that all data loggers need

+
+
Parameters:
+

argparse_description (str) – A description for the argument parser that will be return

+
+
+

:return An instance of argparse with the common arguments added.

+
+ +
+
+PurpleAirDataLoggerHelpers.logic_for_storing_group_sensors_data(padl_obj, group_id_to_use, json_config_file) int
+

A method containing the run loop for inserting a group sensors’ data into the data logger.

+
+
Parameters:
+
    +
  • padl_obj (PurpleAirDataLogger) – A valid instance of PurpleAirDataLogger.

  • +
  • str – The group id to be used. Starts out being None then gets filled out.

  • +
  • json_config_file (dict) – A dictionary object of the json config file using json load.

  • +
+
+
+

:return The group_id int

+
+ +
+
+PurpleAirDataLoggerHelpers.logic_for_storing_local_sensors_data(padl_obj, json_config_file) None
+

A method containing the run loop for inserting a local sensors’ data into the data logger.

+
+
Parameters:
+
    +
  • padl_obj (PurpleAirDataLogger) – A valid instance of PurpleAirDataLogger.

  • +
  • json_config_file (dict) – A dictionary object of the json config file using json load.

  • +
+
+
+

:return None

+
+ +
+
+PurpleAirDataLoggerHelpers.logic_for_storing_multiple_sensors_data(padl_obj, json_config_file) None
+

A method containing the run loop for inserting a multiple sensors’ data into the data logger.

+
+
Parameters:
+
    +
  • padl_obj (PurpleAirDataLogger) – A valid instance of PurpleAirDataLogger.

  • +
  • json_config_file (dict) – A dictionary object of the json config file using json load.

  • +
+
+
+

:return None

+
+ +
+
+PurpleAirDataLoggerHelpers.logic_for_storing_single_sensor_data(padl_obj, json_config_file) None
+

A method containing the run loop for inserting a single sensors’ data into the data logger.

+
+
Parameters:
+
    +
  • padl_obj (PurpleAirDataLogger) – A valid instance of PurpleAirDataLogger.

  • +
  • json_config_file (dict) – A dictionary object of the json config file using json load.

  • +
+
+
+

:return None

+
+ +
+
+PurpleAirDataLoggerHelpers.validate_sensor_data_before_insert(the_modified_sensor_data) dict
+

Before we store the data, we must make sure all fields have been included. +Our psql/sqlite store statements expect all fields regardless of what we request.

+
+
Parameters:
+

the_modified_sensor_data (dict) – A single layer dictionary containing a single sensors data.

+
+
+

return A dictionary with all the data fields filled out.
