Thanks for the reproducible issue.
Regarding missing_ranges, please use the argument user_missing=True to get them. Please take the time to read the Readme in the section about missing values where this is explained. missing_user_values is only for SAS and STATA as described in the [module documentation(https://ofajardo.github.io/pyreadstat_documentation/_build/html/index.html) and therefore will always be empty for SPSS files.
For alignment it seems that the underlying C library Readstat is not reading them correctly. The same library does not currently define any function to extract role, so it cannot be obtained in pyreadstat.
If you can please report these issues in Readstat directly with your example. Otherwise I may do it at a later point in time. You have to be aware that issues in Readstat typically take very long to be solved, so I would say a solution to those two is not likely to appear in the near future.
Task: To readin the file specification of an SPSS data file. where FILE_PATH is the path to the file attached
df, data = pyreadstat.read_sav(FILE_PATH, metadataonly=False)
Description 3 Problems Bug: 1. Attributes missing_ranges and missing_user_values remain at {} even though the file does have missing value entries in variable view in SPSS. ... from pycharm missing_ranges = {dict:0} {} missing_user_values = {dict:0} {}
Bug: 2. variable_alignment is a set of key/value pairs where the value is always 'unknown' variable_alignment = {dict: 12} C22326161.zip {'ID': 'unknown', 'Responded': 'unknown', 'Previous': 'unknown', 'Controlpackage': 'unknown', 'Age': 'unknown', 'Income': 'unknown', 'Education': 'unknown', 'Reside': 'unknown', 'Gender': 'unknown', 'Married': 'unknown', 'Children': 'unknown', 'Region': 'unknown'}
Enhancement: 3. role is currently not included in the attributes of the data block.
Describe the issue A clear and concise description of what the issue is.
To Reproduce df, data = pyreadstat.read_sav(FILE_PATH, metadataonly=False) the data block holds the attributes mentioned above
