# TacScribe
Writes object state from a tacview server to a PostGIS extended Postgresql
database for further processing by other systems.
## Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
```ruby
gem 'tac_scribe'
```
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install tac_scribe
## Usage
You can run the tool using the `tac_scribe` command. Use the `--help`
option for information on required arguments
### Whitelist
If you want to restrict what units get written to the database (e.g. for
performance reasons) then create a whitelist file and pass that in with
the whitelist option. For example if you only care about air units
and landing areas create a file like the following:
`whitelist.txt`
With the following content
```
Sea+Watercraft+AircraftCarrier
Air+Rotorcraft
Air+FixedWing
Ground+Static+Aerodrome
Navaid+Static+Bullseye
```
and add `-w whitelist.txt` to the command-line.
The unit type is the type provided by Tacview and it must be an exact match
## Development
After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then,
run `rake test` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an
interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
### Postgresql and PostGIS
This gem requires postgresql and PostGIS available and listening on an
accessible network port.
See the `db` folder for information on running the database migrations.

be very helpful. See the `data` folder. Current tasks needed are:
* Complete the list of all airfields in DCS with their position information
