TranstarArchive

Python application intended to store an archive of live camera feeds from Houston Transtar

requirements

python 3.6 or later

the requests and wget Python modules, installed with pip (if others aren't found on your system, they can be easily viewed in the source code c:)

what does this program do?

retrives images from live and valid camera image feeds from Houston Transtar. normally these can be viewed on their website here, or a very very lightweight version (intended for mobile or older devices, that i prefer) can be found here, stores them in a folder/local archive on the system you run it on

why?

i have no idea

arguments

by default and with no args provided TranstarArchive will create required folders if necessary and bring you to the main menu. this is useful for archiving once, however below can be more useful if you want to continuously archive.

-archive will start archiving feeds with no extra prompts. use a looping script provided (for windows as of 9/8/22) to continuously loop the process.

-testarg is self explanatory. tests if TranstarArchive will accept arguments
