Details

One paragraph explaining the functionality which is represented by this graph. What the main flow is and what is its purpose.

Cython Bindings [Expand]

These Cython modules serve as the high-performance bridge between the Python layer and the core C Readstat Core Library. They handle efficient data type conversions, memory management, and direct calls to the C functions.

Related Classes/Methods:

  • pyreadstat/_readstat_parser.pyx (1:1)
  • pyreadstat/_readstat_writer.pyx (1:1)
  • pyreadstat/pyreadstat.pyx (1:1)

pyreadstat.pyx

This Cython module serves as the primary user-facing API for the pyreadstat library. It orchestrates the data reading and writing workflows by calling into the lower-level _readstat_parser.pyx and _readstat_writer.pyx components. It handles high-level data flow, error handling, and exposes functions like read_file and write_file. It is a key part of the "Cython Bindings" as it's written in Cython and bridges Python to the C-level operations.

Related Classes/Methods:

  • pyreadstat/pyreadstat.pyx (1:1)

_readstat_parser.pyx

This Cython module is responsible for the direct, low-level parsing of statistical data files. It acts as a direct binding to the readstat C library's parsing functionalities, handling efficient data type conversions and memory management. It reads raw data, metadata, and variable information from various file formats and returns the structured data to the pyreadstat.pyx orchestrator. It is a core part of the "Cython Bindings".

Related Classes/Methods:

  • pyreadstat/_readstat_parser.pyx (1:1)

_readstat_writer.pyx

This Cython module handles the efficient serialization of Python data structures into statistical file formats. Similar to the parser, it provides direct bindings to the readstat C library's writing functionalities, managing data conversion and memory. It receives data from pyreadstat.pyx and writes it to disk. It is a core part of the "Cython Bindings".

Related Classes/Methods:

  • pyreadstat/_readstat_writer.pyx (1:1)

pyfunctions.py

This Python module contains various helper functions that support the overall functionality of the pyreadstat library. These functions likely handle tasks such as data validation, type conversions, error handling, or other pre/post-processing steps that are more conveniently implemented in Python rather than Cython.

Related Classes/Methods:

Readstat Core Library

This is the underlying C library that provides the core functionalities for reading and writing various statistical file formats (e.g., SAS, SPSS, Stata). The Cython modules (_readstat_parser.pyx, _readstat_writer.pyx) directly interface with this library to perform high-performance data operations.

Related Classes/Methods: None
