Library to read and write files, in particular files used by the Wind Energy community. This library is for instance used by the GUI tool pyDatView to plot, export and compare these different files.

• Various CSV and delimited files
• FAST input and output files
• Main HAWC2 input and output files (still some missing)
• FLEX output files
• NetCDF files (partial support for 1D and 2D data for now)

import weio 
f=weio.read('file.csv')
print(f.toDataFrame())
f.write('out.csv')

Example for an OpenFAST binary file:

import weio 
df=weio.read('Output.outb').toDataFrame()
plt.plot(df['Time_[s]'], df['GenPwr_[kW']))

The library is compatible python 2.7 and python 3. The script relies on the following python packages: numpy, pandas, xarray

If you have pip installed on your system, you can install them by typing in a terminal:

pip install -r requirements.txt

or type make dep from the main directory.

From the github page, click on the "Clone or download" button, and you may chose to download as Zip. Alternatively, from a command line:

git clone https://github.com/ebranlard/weio
cd weio

The python packages mentioned in the Requirements section need to be installed.

pip install -e .

or

python setup.py install

File formats can be added by implementing a subclass of weio/File.py, for instance weio/VTKFile.py. Existing examples are found in the folder weio. Once implemented the fileformat needs to be registered in weio/__init__.py by adding an import line at the beginning of this script and adding a line in the function fileFormats() of the form formats.append(FileFormat(VTKFile))
