Low level layer

Converter.Filter.convertFile2SkeletonTree(fileName, format=None, maxFloatSize=5, maxDepth=-1, links=None)

Parameters

  • format (string) – bin_cgns, bin_adf, bin_hdf (optional)

  • maxFloatSize (int) – the maxSize of float array to load

  • maxDepth (int) – max depth of load

  • links (list of list of 4 strings) – if not None, return a list of links in file

Returns

Skeleton tree

Return type

Converter.Filter.readNodesFromPaths(fileName, paths, format=None, maxFloatSize=-1, maxDepth=-1, dataShape=None, skipTypes=None, com=None)

Read nodes specified by their paths. If maxFloatSize=-1, all data are loaded, otherwise data are loaded only if the number of elements is lower that maxFloatSize. If maxDepth=-1, the read is fully recursive. Otherwise, load is limited to maxDepth levels. If skipTypes is specified, children of nodes of given type are not loaded (HDF only).

  • paths (list of strings) – paths to read

  • format (string) – bin_cgns, bin_adf, bin_hdf (optional)

  • maxFloatSize (int) – the maxSize of float array to load

  • dataShape (None or dictionary of shapes of data) – dictionary of returned data shapes if not None

  • skipTypes (None or list of strings) – list of CGNS types to skip

  • com (MPI communicator) – optional MPI communicator. If set, triggers parallel IO

Converter.Filter.readNodesFromFilter(fileName, filter, format='bin_hdf', com=None)

Partially read nodes from a file specified by a filter. Filter is a dictionary for each path to be read. It specifies the slice of array you want to load from file and write to memory. Each slice information is made of [ offset, stride, count, block ]. Offset specifies the starting index of slice. Stride specifies the stride of slice (for example 1 means all elements, 2 means one over two, …). Count is the number of element to read. Block is always 1.

For example, for structured grids: [[imin,jmin,kmin], [1,1,1], [imax-imin+1,jmax-jmin+1,kmax-kmin+1], [1,1,1]].

For example, for unstructured grids: [[istart], [1], [iend-imax+1], [1]].

Only for HDFfile format.

Parameters

  • fileName (string) – file name to read from

  • filter (dictionary of lists) – paths and indices to be read

  • format (string) – bin_hdf

  • com (MPI communicator) – optional MPI communicator. If set, tirggers parralel IO

Returns

dictionary of read node data
