# Cabana

Cabana is a tool developed to view raw CAN data. One use for this is creating and editing [CAN Dictionaries](http://socialledge.com/sjsu/index.php/DBC_Format) (DBC files), and the tool provides direct integration with [commaai/opendbc](https://github.com/commaai/opendbc) (a collection of DBC files), allowing you to load the DBC files direct from source, and save to your fork. In addition, you can load routes from [comma connect](https://connect.comma.ai).

## Usage Instructions

$ ./cabana -h

  --zmq <zmq>                    the ip address on which to receive zmq
                                 messages
  --data_dir <data_dir>          local directory with routes
  --no-vipc                      do not output video
  --dbc <dbc>                    dbc file to open

Arguments:
  route                          the drive to replay. find your drives at
                                 connect.comma.ai
```

## Examples

### Running Cabana in Demo Mode
To run Cabana using a built-in demo route, use the following command:

```shell
cabana --demo
```

### Loading a Specific Route

To load a specific route for replay, provide the route as an argument:

```shell
cabana "a2a0ccea32023010|2023-07-27--13-01-19"
```

Replace "0ccea32023010|2023-07-27--13-01-19" with your desired route identifier.


### Running Cabana with multiple cameras
To run Cabana with multiple cameras, use the following command:

```shell
cabana "a2a0ccea32023010|2023-07-27--13-01-19" --dcam --ecam
```

### Streaming CAN Messages from a comma Device

[SSH into your device](https://github.com/commaai/openpilot/wiki/SSH) and start the bridge with the following command:

```shell
cd /data/openpilot/cereal/messaging/
./bridge &
```

Then Run Cabana with the device's IP address:

```shell
cabana --stream <ipaddress>
```

Replace &lt;ipaddress&gt; with your comma device's IP address.

While streaming from the device, Cabana will log the CAN messages to a local directory. By default, this directory is ~/cabana_live_stream/. You can change the log directory in Cabana by navigating to menu -> tools -> settings.

After disconnecting from the device, you can replay the logged CAN messages from the stream selector dialog -> browse local route.

### Streaming CAN Messages from Panda

To read CAN messages from a connected Panda, use the following command:

```shell
cabana --panda
```

### Using the Stream Selector Dialog

If you run Cabana without any arguments, a stream selector dialog will pop up, allowing you to choose the stream.

```shell
cabana
```
