pyABF 2.0.30
This release is on pypi.org/project/pyabf
pip install --upgrade pyabf
Major Changes
- ABF file writing - The ABF class now allows commands like
abf.saveABF1("demo.abf")
to save any ABF as an ABF1 file. ABF files saved in this way are compatible with MiniAnalysis, allowing pyabf to be used to convert modern ABF1 and ABF2 files into the ABF version 1.3 files it was originally designed to load in 2003. - Simplified header inspection - The ABF header can now be retrieved as text using
print(abf.headerText)
or launched in a browser as a formatted HTML document usingabf.headerLaunch()
. - Sweep synthesis - Intended to aid in development of event detection code, lifelike voltage-clamp and current-clamp sweeps can be generated complete with noise, drift, spontaneous EPSCs and IPSCs, spontaneous EPSPs and IPSPs, and action potentials. See abfWriter.py for details.
