# C3S-512 CDS Data Checker


## Install & Run

```bash
conda create -y -n dqc python=3
conda activate dqc
git clone https://earth.bsc.es/gitlab/external/c3s512-wp1-datachecker.git
cd c3s512-wp1-datachecker
pip install -r requirements.txt
cd dqc_chekcer

python checker.py <config_file>

```
**Note**: In the following section you will find information on how to write your own **config_file**.

## Configure

```bash
- In order to run the checker you must write a simple config
- There is a general section where general dataset and path options are specified
- Each config section represents a check (ex: file_format and temporal_completeness)
- Each config section might have specific parameters related to the specific check

```
**Note**: Config examples for **ALL** available checks can be found in the **dqc_wrapper/conf** folder.

````
[general]
input = /path/to/folder/or/file
log_dir = /path/to/log_folder
type = netcdf

[temporal_completeness]
time_start = YYYY-MM-DD
time_end = YYYY-MM-DD
