This script is used primarily for converting palette files from RGB values to hex values. In THREDDS V4.8 and below the palettes were defined by either RGB values or RGB percentages. In THREDDS V5.x they require the palettes to be hex values. To make the conversion an easier process I have created the Magic Palette Converter for THREDDS.
- Clone the script
- run the script
This script will overwrite existing palettes which usually is the desired outcome due to naming. If you would like to preserve the original palettes you can pass -o False and new palettes will be created with the prefix hex_
When running, pass -path with the full system path to your palettes. Relative paths from the python file usually work, but full paths always work.
python magic_palette_converter.py -path PATH_TO_YOUR_PALETTESIf there were any palette files that could not be converted they will be noted in the console. This could happen if there are unusual lines of text in the files. If you find a case where this happens, please create an issue.
