Read And Filter

There are three basic operations that the readAndFilter module provides.

Reading geometric data

To read geometric data, such as (images, surfaces, structures, fibers), use BravizAutoReader() to get an appropriate project reader. Afterwards use its get() method to access the data.

see Reading geometric data

Reading tabular data

This data is stored inside the braviz Data Base. Use the module tabular_data to access it.

see Braviz Data Base

Read system configuration

User are able to configure the system using a configuration file. Applications should always honor this configuration. Use the module config_file to access this information.

see Configuring

Low level functions

There are other functions in the module which should only be required when building new BaseReader subclasses, or for performing very specific operations.

see Low level functions

Access current project data

PROJECT

Name of the current project, read from the configuration file

class project_reader

A BaseReader subclass appropriate for the current project

BravizAutoReader()

Constructs a BaseReader instance based on the configuration file, the current host, and the hosts configuration file (see Configuring).

braviz_auto_data_root()

Gets the root for geometric data files from the hosts configuration file (see Configuring) and the current host

braviz_auto_dynamic_data_root()

Gets the root for braviz data files from the hosts configuration file (see Configuring) and the current host
