ocean_data_parser.read

This module contains all the different tools needed to parse a file.

file(path, parser=None, **kwargs)

Load compatible file format as an xarray dataset.

from ocean_data_parser import read

ds = read.file('path_to_file.cnv')

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
path	str	File path	required
parser	str	Parser to use. Defaults to auto detect_file_format output if None	None
**kwargs		Keyword arguments to pass to the parser	{}

Returns:

Type	Description
Dataset	xarray.Dataset: Parsed xarray dataset for provided file

detect_file_format(file, encoding='UTF-8')

Detect corresponding data parser for a given file.

The parser suggestion is based on the file extension and the first few lines of the file itself.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
file	str	Path to the file	required
encoding	str	Encoding use to parse file. Defaults to "UTF-8".	'UTF-8'

Returns:

Name	Type	Description
str	str	Parser compatible with this file format
