Read Field Data #41

Open andresegido opened 9 months ago

andresegido commented 9 months ago

Hello! I just started playing around with ReadVTK. Thank you very much for the effort!

Reading some cases I have, I did not find any way to read Field Data from vtk files. Passing very quickly through the documentation and the source code I found that there is already an implemented type for this (VTKBase.VTKFieldData) but there is no function to read this data from a file (in the manner of get_cells_data() or get_points_data()).

Is there any chance you will be implementing this functionality soon? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for your interest! I guess none of the contributors so far have a need for this, so we will likely not implement it in the near future. But if you need it and want to give it a shot, we may be able to assist you and review your PR.

Just did that! Let me know if/when you incorporate the changes. Just out of curiosity: you're not considering implementing multiblock or Paraview collections in the near future, right?

Thanks! @sloede and/or I will have a look at it (when we have time)

Same as with every other feature - this is an open source project, so we're happy to welcome contributions but we will likely not work on it unless we need it ourselves 🙂
