I got tired of APRS-IS websites not showing me all the paths that packets
take, only the shortest path to IS. So this is a Python 3 tool that turns
direwolf logs into a REST API in JSON format.

## Setup
1. Run direwolf with logging to CSV on by using `-l`. (`-L` not yet implemented).
1. Install requirements using `pip install -r requirements.txt`.
2. Run `app.py` with either a Python call or gunicorn (or some other WSGI server).
You can use screen to detach the session.
    - Default URL is http://127.0.0.1:5000
3. Access the API from whatever other system you want.

## Endpoints:
-`/packets` - gives the most recent packets, with the fields from the Dire Wolf
User Guide.

Example of an object packet sent by W1CDN-1 and digipeated by K0UND-2:
```
