Export data

[Zyles]

Is it possible to get all the data which is found in KER outside of the game? Can you analyze the craft file to get delta V, stages, mass etc.?

If not, it would be really fantastic if there was an export data option that dumps all the vessel information into a JSON file somewhere in the game directory. This would help immensely in a website project I am doing where I need all this vessel information and show it on the website.

Ker might not be what you want. take a look at Telemauchus

Telemauchus is way too much. All I need is a simple data dump to file.

kOS could do that.

It is pretty easy to get data from telemachus all you have to do (in python) is

import httplib
import json


conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("localhost:8085")
conn.request("GET", "/telemachus/datalink?altitude=v.altitude")
altitude = json.loads(conn.getresponse().read())[altitude] 

and you will have a double representing your vessels ASL

there may also be a way to get an entire json file but i'm not sure

It sounds to me that you are simply wanting the contents of the build engineer window rather than a continuous log of the in-flight readouts. It should be pretty simple to add a button to the build engineer settings that dumps out a file containing the whole of the array of Stage structures (https://github.com/CYBUTEK/KerbalEngineer/blob/master/KerbalEngineer/VesselSimulator/Stage.cs) that are returned by the VesselSimulator.

@Gerry1135 I was just thinking how amazing it would be if I could dump a .csv file from the build engineer, and was going to suggest it and saw this. Anyone taken a further look into it? (after 1.1 update stuff is calmed down of course. heh )
