QDMR .yaml to OpenGD77 .csv Converter

This python script converts data from a GD-77 YAML configuration file generated by qdmr into four separate CSV files compatible with the OpenGD77 CPS.

This conversion simplifies managing a single codeplug for multiple DMR radios, such as a Radioddity GD-77 and a Retevis RT-3S. Since qdmr does not yet support the RT-3S with the OpenGD77 firmware, I manage my codeplug in qdmr on a Linux system, then write it to my GD-77 with OpenGD77 firmware. This Python script converts the YAML codeplug from qdmr into four CSV files. I then use the OpenGD77 CPS on a Windows PC or VM (since it does not work on Linux) to write the codeplug to the RT-3S radio.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Ensure you have Python installed on your system. This project requires Python 3.6 or higher.

Installation

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/umbertoragone/qdmr_yaml_to_opengd77_csv.git
cd qdmr_yaml_to_opengd77_csv

  2. Install the required Python packages:

    pip install pyyaml

Usage

  1. Place your GD-77.yaml file in the parent directory of your project folder.

  2. Run the Python script to generate the CSV files:

    python qdmr_yaml_to_opengd77_csv.py

File Structure

  • qdmr_yaml_to_opengd77_csv.py: Main script to convert YAML to CSV.
  • GD-77.yaml: Input YAML file containing the configuration data (should be placed in the parent directory).
  • Channels.csv: Output CSV file for channels.
  • Contacts.csv: Output CSV file for contacts.
  • TG_Lists.csv: Outputs CSV file for group lists (TG lists).
  • Zones.csv: Output CSV file for zones.

Example

Ensure the following directory structure for the script to locate the YAML file correctly:

/path/to/parent/directory/
├── GD-77.yaml
└── OpenGD77 CSV/
  ├── qdmr_yaml_to_opengd77_csv.py
  ├── Channels.csv
  ├── Contacts.csv
  ├── TG_Lists.csv
  └── Zones.csv
