Input

string

The name of the RAW file to read, including its full or relative path. (N.B. case sensitive if running on Linux). Allowed extensions: [‘.raw’, ‘.s*’, ‘.add’]

OutputFilename

Input

string

Mandatory

The name of the Nexus file to write, as a full or relative path. Allowed extensions: [‘.nxs’, ‘.nx5’, ‘.xml’]

Description

The algorithm SaveISISNexus will write a Nexus data file from the given RAW file. The output file name can be an absolute or relative path and should have the extension .nxs, .nx5 or .xml. Warning - using XML format can be extremely slow for large data sets and generate very large files. Both the extensions nxs and nx5 will generate HDF5 files.

Usage

import os
# Create a file path in the user home directory
filePath = os.path.expanduser('~/SavedISISNexusFile.nxs')

# Save a RAW file in Nexus format
SaveISISNexus('IRS26173.raw',filePath)
