streamio is a simple library of functions designed to read, write and sort large files using iterators so that the operations will successfully complete on systems with limited RAM. This library has been used extensively at Griffith University whilst developing the TerraNova Climate Change and Adaptation Visualization tool(s) and processing large volumes of data. streamio is written in Python and has extensive documentation and unit tests with 100% coverage.

See the API for a list of the available functions.

Examples

Read a large text file iteratively:

from streamio import stream
f = stream("large_file.txt")

Read a large CSV file iteratively:

from streamio import jsonstream
f = stream("large_file.json")

Merge-sort a large JSON file with the key itemgetter("value"):

from operator import itemgetter
from streamio import mergesort
f = mergesort("large_file.json", key=itemgetter("value"))

Requirements

streamio also comes with documentation and a full comprehensive unit test suite which require the following:
