"""Sample the modem's signal
This script is meant to be run with the Motorola SB6121 Surfboard Modem.
If you run it on a different modem, it might not work, but it's worth a try...
It should be run as a cron job, every minute (or whatever interval you'd like)
into a text file. The file can later be used by a json parser to analyze the
signal over time, which can be used to come to conclusions that you can argue

Last active May 19, 2023 10:07
This is a small script to get all keys from a Riak bucket using only standard Python libraries. It can be used as-is to list all keys from a bucket line-by-line, or can be used with other code to do things like purge an entire bucket, or perform some action over all keys in a bucket, etc. It takes advantage of Riak's streaming to grab a list of …
