GeoModelCat¶

GeoModelCat (gmcat) is a command line tool that allows to concatenate different geometry files into a single final SQLite file. It is possible to concatenate plugins (.dylib/.so) and/or SQLite (.db) files.

gmcat has the following parameters:

-o [MANDATORY] Name of the output .db file
-v [OPTIONAL] Print verbose output to the screen (default: direct verbose output to /tmp)
-g [OPTIONAL] Path to the local GeoModelATLAS repository (default: .)

Examples¶

In order to combine three different plugins into one single detector file one need to call gmcat in the following way:

./gmcat libPixelGeoPlugin.0.0.1.dylib libSCTGeoPlugin.0.0.1.dylib libTRTGeoPlugin.0.0.1.dylib  -o InnerDetector.db
