Usage

Documentation for HMpTy can be found here: http://HMpTy.readthedocs.org/en/stable


Usage:
    hmpty index <tableName> <primaryIdCol> <raCol> <decCol> (-s <pathToSettingsFile>|--host <host> --user <user> --passwd <passwd> --dbName <dbName>)
    hmpty search <tableName> <raCol> <decCol> <ra> <dec> <radius> (-s <pathToSettingsFile>|--host <host> --user <user> --passwd <passwd> --dbName <dbName>) [(-r <format>|-r mysql <resultsTable>)]

Options:
    index                 add HTMids to database table
    search                perform a conesearch on a database table

    dec                                                             the declination of the centre of the conesearch circle
    radius                                                          the radius of the conesearch circle (arcsec)
    -h, --help                                                      show this help message
    -v, --version                                                   show version
    -s <pathToSettingsFile>, --settings <pathToSettingsFile>        path to a settings file containing the database credentials
    --host <host>                                                   database host address
