com1DFA.com1DFA.readFields

readFields(inDir, resType, simName='', flagAvaDir=True, comModule='com1DFA', timeStep='', atol=1e-06)

Read ascii files within a directory and return List of dictionaries

inDir: str

path to input directory

resType: list

list of desired result types

simNamestr

simulation name

flagAvaDir: bool

if True inDir corresponds to an avalanche directory and pickles are read from avaDir/Outputs/com1DFA/particles

comModule: str

module that computed the particles

timeStep: float or list of floats

desired time step if difference to time step of field file is smaller than atol field is found - optional

atol: float

look for matching time steps with atol tolerance - default is atol=1.e-6

Returns

• fieldsList (list) – list of fields dictionaries

• fieldHeader (dict) – raster header corresponding to first element in fieldsList

• timeList (list) – tme corresponding to elements in fieldsList
