galvani

Read proprietary file formats from electrochemical test stations.

Usage

Bio-Logic .mpr files

Use the MPRfile class from BioLogic.py (exported in the main package)

from galvani import BioLogic
import pandas as pd

mpr_file = BioLogic.MPRfile('test.mpr')
df = pd.DataFrame(mpr_file.data)

Arbin .res files

Use the ./galvani/res2sqlite.py script to convert the .res file to a sqlite3 database with the same schema, which can then be interrogated with external tools or directly in Python. For example, to extract the data into a pandas DataFrame (will need to be installed separately):

import sqlite3
import pandas as pd
from galvani.res2sqlite import convert_arbin_to_sqlite
convert_arbin_to_sqlite("input.res", "output.sqlite")
with sqlite3.connect("output.sqlite") as db:
    df = pd.read_sql(sql="select * from Channel_Normal_Table", con=db)

This functionality requires MDBTools to be installed on the local system.
