RustyGetData
GetData - But the Rust version
Introduction
rustygetdata
is a Rust Wrapper for the GetData Library - used to access, read, write, and work with Dirfiles. You can find more information on GetData here, along with links to other bindings and wrappers. rustygetdata
takes away the pain of C and instead allows you to use GetData in Rust!
🚧 CONSTRUCTION WARNING 🚧
This library and wrapper is still under construction, with only a few functions ready. Currently you can only do the following:
- Get the number of fields in a Dirfile
- Get the number of frames in a Dirfile
- Get the number of samples per frame for a field in the Dirfile
- Get the data type of the data for a field in the Dirfile
- Get all the data for a field in the Dirfile (as a
Vec<f64>
)
More functions will be added soon as they are written and tested, especially around writing to a Dirfile, getting specific chunks of data, and more. If you have a specific request, please reach out. Or if you'd like to contribute, more on that below!
👨💻 Usage
To use rustygetdata
, add it to your Cargo.toml
file under dependencies
:
[dependencies]
rustygetdata = "0.1.0" # Replace with the latest version
Then, in your Rust code, use it as following:
use rustygetdata::Dirfile;
fn main() {
let my_dirfile = Dirfile::new("path/to/your/dirfile");
println!("Number of fields: {}", my_dirfile.nfields());
println!("Number of frames: {}", my_dirfile.nframes());
let data = my_dirfile.get_data("your_field");
println!("Data: {:?}", data);
}
🤔 Future Work
Like mentioned above, this is still under construction and more functions will be added soon, especially around writing to Dirfiles, getting specific chunks of data, and a lot more that the full library has to offer. Stay tuned for more updates to the library!
