Read dataset with 2d array stored fails on reading chunks about hdf5.node HOT 10 OPEN

probably need to set the start, stride and count to two rank hyperslab;
like http://hdf-ni.github.io/hdf5.node/tut/subset_tutorial.html

var data = h5lt.readDataset(file.id, "V",{start: [0,0], stride: [1,1], count: [1,128]});

start, stride and count are arrays the size of rank for choosing the subset/hyperslab

from hdf5.node.

or reading your description further to be by column of row values

var yCount=0;
var data = h5lt.readDataset(file.id, "V",{start: [0,yCount], stride: [1,1], count: [128, 1]});

where you vary yCount to get each column(all the rows values at that column)

Hi,

Thank you for the answer. But the options that you offer don't work. They all read the whole 2d array. Attached one of these files, if you want to test it.

Ah ok, I'll try

from hdf5.node.

h5lt.readDatasetAsBuffer works while h5lt.readDataset doesn't. In later node js versions the javascript object returned by h5lt.readDatasetAsBuffer is ArrayBufferView with constructor name Buffer and has the functionality of https://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/buffer.html. I'll work hyperslabs into h5lt.readDataset to catch it up to the documentation ad return a Float32Array. Until I commit changes the following should work for you to get to the hyperslab

try
{
    var file = new hdf5.File("/home/roger/Downloads/signD3.h5", Access.ACC_RDONLY);
    var data = h5lt.readDatasetAsBuffer(file.id, "V",{start: [0,0], stride: [1,1], count: [1,128]});
    console.log("length"+data.length);
    file.close();
}
catch(err) {
    console.dir(err.message);
}

from hdf5.node.

I've committed so h5lt.readDataset should work as well and return a Float32Array for your case.

travis build passed. Yet I do want to add more tests

from hdf5.node.

Hi,

How can I get the latest version to test it? I used npm to install hdf5 package.

npm install HDF-NI/hdf5.node 

should pull from the github master branch

I got some other things going on before another publish

from hdf5.node.

Hi,

I tested it and it looks good.
Please let me know when it will be available as a new release.

I will. I think in about two week ends
