SpacePy Scripts
***************
Some scripts using SpacePy are included in the ``scripts`` directory
of the source distribution. At the moment they are not installed by
the installer.
istp_checks.py
==============
.. program:: istp_checks.py
Checks for various ISTP compliance issues in a file and prints any
issues found. This script is supplemental to the checker included with
the `ISTP skeleton editor `_;
it primarily checks for errors that the skeleton editor does not.
Badly noncompliant files generally result in the error "Test x did not
complete". This means the test crashed due to some failure in the
assumptions about the CDF structure. Please run the individual test to
get a traceback and `open an issue
`_.
This is just a thin wrapper to
:meth:`spacepy.pycdf.istp.FileChecks.all`; that documentation (plus
other methods in the class) describes the actual checks.
.. option:: cdffile
Name of the CDF file to check (required)
