IMAS-Python is a pure-python library to handle arbitrarily nested data structures. It is designed for, but not necessarily bound to, interacting with Interface Data Structures (IDSs) as defined by the Integrated Modelling & Analysis Suite (IMAS) Data Model.
Install steps are described in the documentation generated from /docs/source/installing.rst.
Documentation is autogenerated from the source using Sphinx and can be found at the readthedocs
The documentation can be manually generated by installing sphinx and running:
make -C docs htmlimport imas
factory = imas.IDSFactory()
equilibrium = factory.equilibrium()
print(equilibrium)
equilibrium.ids_properties.homogeneous_time = imas.ids_defs.IDS_TIME_MODE_HETEROGENEOUS
equilibrium.ids_properties.comment = "testing"
with imas.DBEntry("imas:hdf5?path=./testdb","w") as dbentry:
dbentry.put(equilibrium)A quick 5 minutes introduction is available in the documentation generated from /docs/sources/intro.rst.
