LoadLog dialog.
Table of Contents
| Name | Direction | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Workspace | InOut | MatrixWorkspace | Mandatory | The name of the workspace to which the log data will be added. |
| Filename | Input | string | Mandatory | The filename (including its full or relative path) of a SNS text log file (not cvinfo), an ISIS log file, or an ISIS raw file. If a raw file is specified all log files associated with that raw file are loaded into the specified workspace. The file extension must either be .raw or .s when specifying a raw file. Allowed extensions: [‘.txt’, ‘.log’] |
| Names | Input | str list | For SNS-style log files only: the names of each column’s log, separated by commas. This must be one fewer than the number of columns in the file. | |
| Units | Input | str list | For SNS-style log files only: the units of each column’s log, separated by commas. This must be one fewer than the number of columns in the file. Optional: leave blank for no units in any log. | |
| NumberOfColumns | Input | number | Optional | Number of columns in the file. If not set Mantid will attempt to guess. |
Parameters Note: Note that it is possible to use both of the optional ‘spectrum’ properties (i.e. a range and a list) together if so desired.
Assumes that a log file originates from a PC (not VMS) environment, i.e. the log files to be loaded are assumed to have the extension .txt. Its filename is assumed to starts with the raw data file identifier followed by the character ‘_’, and a log file is assumed to have a format of two columns, where the first column consists of data-time strings of the ISO 8601 form and the second column consists of either numbers or strings that may contain spaces.
LoadLog is also a child algorithm of LoadRaw v3, i.e. it gets called whenever LoadRaw is executed.
If the file is determined to be a SNS text log file it should be of the form

The first column is the number of seconds since January 1, 1990, then the other columns (space delimited) are the log values. For this mode the name and units parameters must be specified.
Example - Adding logs from a log file:
# create histogram workspace
dataX1 = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9] # or use dataX1=range(0,10)
dataY1 = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8] # or use dataY1=range(0,9)
dataE1 = [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1] # or use dataE1=[1]*9
ws = CreateWorkspace(dataX1, dataY1, dataE1)
#get the log data out of the Workspace's run object
run = ws.getRun()
logs= run.getLogData()
print("Logs before adding:")
for i in range(0,len(logs)):
print(logs[i].name)
#ExampleForLog.log is taken from a NIMROD run
LoadLog(ws,"ExampleForLog.log")
print("")
run = ws.getRun()
logs= run.getLogData()
print("Logs after adding:")
for i in range(0,len(logs)):
print(logs[i].name)
Output:
Logs before adding:

Logs after adding:
