nanonispy 1.0

Library to parse Nanonis files.

# nanonispy

A small library written in python 3 to parse Nanonis binary and ascii files.

## Requirements

Currently written and ‘tested’ with python 3.5, fairly sure this won’t work with version of python < 3.0

• numpy (>1.10)

Will continue making tests that are actually useful and maybe will make this a conda/pip build.

## Install ### pip ` pip install nanonispy `

### conda ` conda install --channel https://conda.anaconda.org/underchemist nanonispy `

### github Simply clone this repo and run ` python setup.py install `

## Basic usage

Once installed, you should be able to import it to any python script or ipython session.

`python import nanonispy as nap `

Then given a file,

`python grid = nap.read.Grid('/path/to/datafile.3ds') `

You can look at the attributes and methods to determine the information available.

## Running tests Similar to the install, except run ` python setup.py test ` . If you have the nose module installed, it’s as simple as ` nosetests ` .

You can also see coverage of the tests as well as ignore the test discovery of numpy core packages (don’t quite understand why it does this) with ` nosetests --with-coverage --cover-branches --cover-package=nanonispy ` .

I don’t know how to turn tests without nose…

## To do - homogenize grid and scan header keys, right now header formats are pretty different and I’m to lazy to do it myself.
