Table of Contents
| Name | Direction | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| InputWorkspace | Input | MatrixWorkspace | Mandatory | The name of the workspace to save. |
| Filename | Input | string | Mandatory | The name of the NXSPE file to write, as a full or relative path. Allowed extensions: [‘.nxspe’] |
| Efixed | Input | number | Optional | Value of the fixed energy to write into NXSPE file. |
| Psi | Input | number | Optional | Value of PSI to write into NXSPE file. |
| KiOverKfScaling | Input | boolean | True | Flags in the file whether Ki/Kf scaling has been done or not. |
| ParFile | Input | string | not_used.par | If provided, will replace detectors parameters in resulting nxspe file with the values taken from the file. Should be used only if the parameters, calculated by the [[FindDetectorsPar]] algorithm are not suitable for some reason. See [[FindDetectorsPar]] description for the details. Allowed extensions: [‘.par’, ‘.phx’] |
Saves the given MatrixWorkspace to a file in the NeXus-based ‘NXSPE’ format.
The input workspace must have units of Momentum Transfer (‘DeltaE’) and contain histogram data with common binning on all spectra.
The FindDetectorsPar v1 algorithm is used to calculate detectors parameters from the instrument description.
Example - Save/Load “Roundtrip”
import os
import numpy
# Create dummy workspace.
out_ws = CreateSimulationWorkspace(Instrument="IRIS", BinParams="0,500,2000")
out_ws.setY(0, numpy.array([10.0, 50.0, 30.0, 60.0]))
AddSampleLog(out_ws, 'Ei', LogText='321', LogType='Number')
file_path = os.path.join(config["defaultsave.directory"], "NXSPEData.nxspe")
# Do a "roundtrip" of the data.
SaveNXSPE(out_ws, file_path,Psi=32)
# By desigghn, SaveMXSPE does not store detector's ID-s. LoadNXSPE sets detector's ID-s to defaults.
# To compare loaded and saved workspaces here, one needs to set-up default detector's ID-s to the source workspace.
nSpec = out_ws.getNumberHistograms()
for i in xrange(0,nSpec):
sp=out_ws.getSpectrum(i);
sp.setDetectorID(i+1);
in_ws = LoadNXSPE(file_path)
ws_comparison_rez = CheckWorkspacesMatch(out_ws,in_ws,1.e-9,CheckInstrument=False)
print "Contents of the first spectrum = " + str(in_ws.readY(0)) + "."
print "Initial and loaded workspaces comparison is: ",ws_comparison_rez
run = in_ws.getRun();
print "Loaded workspace has attached incident energy Ei={0:5} and rotation angle Psi={1:5}deg".format(run.getLogData('Ei').value,run.getLogData('psi').value)
Output:
Contents of the first spectrum = [ 10. 50. 30. 60.].
Initial and loaded workspaces comparison is: Success!
Loaded workspace has attached incident energy Ei=321.0 and rotation angle Psi= 32.0deg
