We used the Eclipse IDE for developing this project, and as such, we relied upon the feature "Export As Runnable Jar" (Extract Libraries into Generated Jar File) to create the final jar file.
In order to use this project with your own data, you will need know or have the following
- Data in a fixed width file format (included is sample data in 'data/us2002a_10k_usa.dat.gz')
- A CSV file that contains the location information of your variables within your data file. Four columns, "record type", "variable name", "start position" and "variable width"
- Rules. You need a specially crafted YAML file that defines your intended tabulations. See 'rules.yml' for examples.
java -Xmx8000M -server -jar tabulator.jar rules.yml var_positions.csv
