CAN to CSV Parser

Usage

To parse a CAN dump (in candump -l format):

./canparser -s my_schema.yaml candump-foo.log

Individual .csv files will be created for each message type in the dump. These will appear in a 'candump-foo' folder where canparser was run.

You will also need a schema file that describes the messsages in the can dump. To load a schema you can either name it schema.yaml and put it in the same folder as the script or use the -s flag to pass the path to the schema file. The format of the schema file is described below.
