# Manage-FTP-koukouli
Koukouli weather station uploads a ```.dat``` file every 5 minutes to the FTP server.
Each ```.dat``` file contains 5 1-min measurements.
This script downloads the ```.dat``` files locally, and organizes them to daily ```.csv``` files using the filename format: `YYYY/koukouli1min_YYYYMMDD.csv`
The generated ```.csv``` files are uploaded to the FTP server and archived locally.
Both the remote and the loca raw ```.dat``` files are deleted after the ```.csv``` upload.
## Instructions
Edit the FTP parameters in ```ftp.py```.
To avoid overlapping cron job execution, use ```flock``` in crontab:
```
*/10 * * * * /usr/bin/flock -w 0 ~/manage_ftp_koukouli.lock python3 ~/Manage-FTP-koukouli/main.py
```
To check if your cron job is running:
```
grep CRON /var/log/syslog
```
