Documentation

mseedindex - Generate miniSEED summary and synchronize database

This program reads miniSEED files, creates an index of the available data and stores this information into a database. Alternatively, the index information can be produced in JSON format. The index includes details such as identifers, time ranges, file names, location within files, and additional details. The database can be either PostgreSQL or SQLite.

Documentation

The Wiki provides an overview and documentation of the database schema.

For program usage see the mseedindex manual in the 'doc' directory.

Building and Installing

In most environments a simple 'make' will build the program. The build system is designed for GNU make, which make be avilable as 'gmake'.

The CC, CFLAGS and LDFLAGS environment variables can be used to configure the build parameters.

To build with PostgreSQL support set the variable WITHPOSTGRESQL. This can be done in a single command with make like: $ WITHPOSTGRESQL=1 make

If Postgres is installed in non-system locations, specific their location using the CFLAGS and LDFLAGS environment variables:

  • CFLAGS='-I/Library/PostgreSQL/14/include'
  • LDFLAGS='-L/Library/PostgreSQL/14/lib/'

By default the build system will detect if necessary libraries are available for URL support and enable this capability. To build without support for reading URLs set the variable WIHOUTURL. This can be done in a single command with make like: $ WITHOUTURL=1 make

For further installation simply copy the resulting binary and man page (in the 'doc' directory) to appropriate system directories.

In the Win32 environment the Makefile.win can be used with the nmake build tool included with Visual Studio. PostgreSQL support is turned off by default in the Windows build procedure.
