Test locally

Hi

Is there a way I can test the data I'm about to submit?

Kind regards

Hi Matisse,

I've added you to the testing repository. You'll need to upload a file called belux.json, which will then be visible at https://beta.vatglasses.uk/europe. I've removed the Maastricht placeholder sectors from the beta site.

Please be aware that it can take a couple of minutes for data to be deployed after you push it to the repository. If you push multiple times in quick succession, the server will process these requests one at a time - it can get very slow!

Thank you!

Just need help with one more thing...

Regex really arent my thing and not all of our COORD: are captured with the provided regex.

Sometimes our degrees do not have a leading zero and/or if milliseconds are equal to zero, they are not written.
Could you take a look and perhaps update the wiki provided regex?

Try this for the "find" with the same "replace": COORD:N0{0,1}([0-9]{2})\.([0-9]{2})\.([0-9]{2})\.([0-9]{3}):E([0-9]{3})\.([0-9]{2})\.([0-9]{2})\.([0-9]{3})

[MatisseBE]

Still doesnt work for those where milliseconds are removed such as:

COORD:N50.29.28:E004.42.01
COORD:N50.31.22:E004.50.25

Appologies for not providing an example for the second exception.

Aaargh your sector file is full of non-standard formatting. Try this: COORD:N0?([0-9]{2})\.([0-9]{2})\.([0-9]{2})(\.[0-9]{3})?:E([0-9]{3})\.([0-9]{2})\.([0-9]{2})(\.[0-9]{3})?

[MatisseBE]

Works brilliantly! Thank you!

COORD:N0?([0-9]{2}).([0-9]{2}).([0-9]{1,2})(.[0-9]{3,})?:E([0-9]{3}).([0-9]{2}).([0-9]{1,2})(.[0-9]{3,})?

I made some more slight adjustments such that it could handle cases where the minutes only contained one digit.
