igor-file-loader

A independent module for WaveMetrics Igor Pro 8 that can load the contents of a file system folder into a structure. Although versions < 8 may be working, the CI job only tests compatibility to Igor Pro 8.

Installation

Navigate to the Igor Pro User Files folder from the menu bar:

All files from the Igor Procedures Folder are loaded by default on program start.

usage in Functions

Function load()
   FILO#load(fileType = ".ibw", packageID = 1)
End

Function read()
   String file
   Variable numFiles, i
   STRUCT FILO#experiment filos

   FILO#structureLoad(filos)

   numFiles = ItemsInList(filos.strFileList)
   for(i = 0; i < numFiles; i += 1)
   	file = StringFromList(i, filos.strFileList)
   	print filos.strFolder, file
   endfor
End

usage from Command Line

The package stores its values in variables. The package can therefore also be called directly from the cli. An example is shown in the following figure. Try testing it with the following code:

FILO#load()
print root:Packages:FILO:structure:strFileList
