Store results in plaintext format

Closed this issue · 3 comments

It might be nice to store the basic results table in a more plaintext format, showing the name, significance, SNR, dt, etc. of each round winner, linking to the segment file for each round, and possibly other files.

Perhaps JSON is the most transparent format for this? It would allow other tools to pick up the results and use them if they want.

I agree. Matlab hveto has a plain text results table output that might be a starting point for this. You can reach it off the main page under “results table [txt]”
For example, on this page:
https://ldas-jobs.ligo-wa.caltech.edu/~jrsmith/hveto/O1/analysis9/H1-omicron_BOTH-1135652417-1602000-DARM/
That link points to

Is that along the lines of what you meant, perhaps with a header line?

@jrsmith02, basically. But, perhaps we can have both, a simple txt format of the table, and a JSON file that links everything together. I'll try and mock up an example of my idea so you can see a little better.

Sounds like a great idea to me!
