tm1filetools 0.3.3

A package for working with files created by a TM1 database.

A Python package that simplifies working with files associated with a TM1 server. It’s primarily useful for linting or cleaning up a server directory without a dependency on a running TM1 Server.

What it does

• Scans a TM1 database folder and finds most TM1 related files (e.g. .cub, .rux etc)

• Provides methods to rename and delete files and properties specific to a file type (e.g. the cube a .vue file refers to)

• Return lists of “orphaned” files (e.g. a .rux without a corresponding .cub)

What it doesn’t do

• Operations on binary files (e.g. it can’t read or edit a .cub file)

• Genuine parsing of text files (e.g. it can’t verify whether a .rux is valid)

• Interact with the REST API (use TM1py for that)

Installation

pip install tm1filetools

from tm1filetools import TM1FileTool
