NDArray.to_cframe() → bytes

Get a bytes object containing the serialized NDArray instance.

Returns:

out – The buffer containing the serialized NDArray instance.

Return type:

bytes

ndarray_from_cframe()

This function can be used to reconstruct a NDArray from the serialized bytes.

Examples

>>> import blosc2
>>> a = blosc2.full(shape=(1000, 1000), fill_value=9, dtype='i4')
>>> # Get the bytes object containing the serialized instance
>>> cframe_bytes = a.to_cframe()
>>> blosc_array = blosc2.ndarray_from_cframe(cframe_bytes)
>>> print("Shape of the NDArray:", blosc_array.shape)
>>> print("Data type of the NDArray:", blosc_array.dtype)
Shape of the NDArray: (1000, 1000)
Data type of the NDArray: int32
