OpenTFRaw

CI DOI crates.io PyPI docs.rs License: Apache-2.0 Rust MSRV

Part of the OpenMassSpec stack for mass spectrometry raw-file access. Sibling readers: OpenWRaw (Waters), OpenTimsTDF (Bruker).

Rust and Python reader for Thermo Fisher .raw mass spectrometry files, covering format versions 8 through 66 (LCQ Classic through Orbitrap Astral and modern TSQ).

Documentation: sigilweaver.app/opentfraw/docs

Install

Prefer openmassspec-io with the thermo feature/extra unless you need this parser standalone (minimal dependencies, or building your own abstraction) - the umbrella gives you format auto-detection, mzML conversion, and Arrow streaming across all wired-in vendors for free:

cargo add openmassspec-io --features thermo

pip install openmassspec[thermo]

Standalone:

Rust:

cargo add opentfraw

Python:

pip install opentfraw

Quickstart

Rust:

use opentfraw::RawFileReader;

let raw = RawFileReader::open_path("sample.raw")?;
let mut file = std::fs::File::open("sample.raw")?;
for scan_num in 1..=raw.num_scans {
    let peaks = raw.read_scan_peaks(&mut file, scan_num)?;
    println!("scan {scan_num}: {} peaks", peaks.mz.len());
}

Python:

import opentfraw

raw = opentfraw.RawFile("run.raw")
mz, intensity = raw.peaks(3)
print(raw.scan(3)["filter_string"])
raw.to_mzml("run.mzML")

See the docs site for the full guide, format specification, and API reference.
