Output Options

By default, the fave-extract subcommands will write all possible data outputs to a directory called fave_results/. You can control how this works with a few options.

Output Destination

If, instead of a directory called fave_results/, you would prefer the output to be saved to a different directory, you can pass this to the --destination option.

# command-line
fave-extract corpus my_corpus \
    --destination my_corpus_vowels

If the output directory doesn’t already exist, it will be created.

Output formats

tracks

To only save vowel formant track data as a .csv, pass tracks to the --which option.

fave-extract corpus my_corpus \
    --which tracks

points

To only save vowel formant point data as a .csv, pass points to the --which option.

fave-extract corpus my_corpus \
    --which points

param

To only save DCT smooth parameters, pass param to the --which option.

fave-extract corpus my_corpus \
    --which param

log param

To only save DCT smooth parameters of log(formants), pass log_param to the --which option.

fave-extract corpus my_corpus \
    --which log_param

textgrid

To only save the recoded textgrid, pass textgrid to the --which option.

fave-extract corpus my_corpus \
    --which textgrid

Multiple

If there are multiple (but not all) output formats you would like to save, you can pass the --which option multiple times.

fave-extract corpus my_corpus \
    --which tracks \
    --which points
