paraview.simple.SLACDataReader

paraview.simple.SLACDataReader(*input, **params)
A reader for a data format

used by Omega3p, Tau3p, and several other tools used at the Standford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC). The underlying format uses NetCDF to store arrays, but also imposes several conventions to form an unstructured grid of elements. This is a distributed reader.

Data Descriptors

FrequencyScale

Sets the scale factor for each mode. By default, each scale factor is set to 1.

MeshFileName

The name of the mesh file to load.

ModeFileName

The name of the mode files to load. The points in the mode file should be the same as the mesh file.

PhaseShift

Sets the phase offset for each mode. By default, shift is set to 0.

ReadExternalSurface

If on, read the external surfaces of the data set.

ReadInternalVolume

If on, read the internal volume of the data set.

ReadMidpoints

If on, reads midpoint information for external surfaces and builds quadratic surface triangles.

TimestepValues

This magic property sends time information to the animation panel. ParaView will then automatically set up the animation to visit the time steps defined in the file.

Data Descriptors inherited from Proxy

__dict__

dictionary for instance variables (if defined)

__weakref__

list of weak references to the object (if defined)

Methods

Initialize = aInitialize(self, connection=None, update=True)

Methods inherited from SourceProxy

FileNameChanged(self)

Called when the filename of a source proxy is changed.

GetCellDataInformation(self)

Returns the associated cell data information.

GetDataInformation(self, idx=None)

This method returns a DataInformation wrapper around a vtkPVDataInformation

GetFieldDataInformation(self)

Returns the associated cell data information.

GetPointDataInformation(self)

Returns the associated point data information.

UpdatePipeline(self, time=None)

This method updates the server-side VTK pipeline and the associated data information. Make sure to update a source to validate the output meta-data.

UpdatePipelineInformation(self)

This method updates the meta-data of the server-side VTK pipeline and the associated information properties

__getitem__(self, idx)

Given a slice, int or string, returns the corresponding output port

Methods inherited from Proxy

GetProperty(self, name)

Given a property name, returns the property object.

GetPropertyValue(self, name)

Returns a scalar for properties with 1 elements, the property itself for vectors.

InitializeFromProxy(self, aProxy, update=True)

Constructor. Assigns proxy to self.SMProxy, updates the server object as well as register the proxy in _pyproxies dictionary.

ListProperties(self)

Returns a list of all property names on this proxy.

SetPropertyWithName(self, pname, arg)

Generic method for setting the value of a property.

__del__(self)

Destructor. Cleans up all observers as well as remove the proxy from the _pyproxies dictionary

__eq__(self, other)

Returns true if the underlying SMProxies are the same.

__getattr__(self, name)

With the exception of a few overloaded methods, returns the SMProxy method

__hash__(self)

Return hash(self).

__init__(self, **args)

Default constructor. It can be used to initialize properties by passing keyword arguments where the key is the name of the property. In addition registrationGroup and registrationName (optional) can be specified (as keyword arguments) to automatically register the proxy with the proxy manager.

__iter__(self)

Creates an iterator for the properties.

__ne__(self, other)

Returns false if the underlying SMProxies are the same.

__setattr__(self, name, value)

Implement setattr(self, name, value).

add_attribute(self, name, value)
