VPICReader
(*input, **params)¶
- FileName
- ASCII .vpc file describes locations of data files, grid sizes, time step sizes and type and order of data written to the files.
- PointArrays
- Variables written to the data files are described in the .vpc file and are presented for selection. Only selected variables are loaded for a time step.
- Stride
- VPIC data may be very large and not all is needed for effective visualization. Setting the stride selects every nth data item within the files for display.
TimestepValues
- XExtent
- VPIC data is written one file per simulation processor. This coarse map of files is used in partitioning files between visualizing processors so that each ParaView processor has its own set of files to display. Ghost cell overlap is handled within the reader. To limit the View of VPIC information the extent in the X dimension of “files” can be specified. Only the files selected will be displayed and they will be partitioned between the visualizing processors, allowing a higher resolution over a smaller area.
- YExtent
- VPIC data is written one file per simulation processor. This coarse map of files is used in partitioning files between visualizing processors so that each ParaView processor has its own set of files to display. Ghost cell overlap is handled within the reader. To limit the View of VPIC information the extent in the Y dimension of “files” can be specified. Only the files selected will be displayed and they will be partitioned between the visualizing processors, allowing a higher resolution over a smaller area.
- ZExtent
- VPIC data is written one file per simulation processor. This coarse map of files is used in partitioning files between visualizing processors so that each ParaView processor has its own set of files to display. Ghost cell overlap is handled within the reader. To limit the View of VPIC information the extent in the Z dimension of “files” can be specified. Only the files selected will be displayed and they will be partitioned between the visualizing processors, allowing a higher resolution over a smaller area.
- CellData
- Returns cell data information
- FieldData
- Returns field data information
- PointData
- Returns point data information
- __dict__
- dictionary for instance variables (if defined)
- __weakref__
- list of weak references to the object (if defined)
Initialize = aInitialize(self, connection=None, update=True)
- 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
- 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)
