# Using tono as a Python library tono's processing nodes can be used as a standalone Python library for scripting, batch processing, and integration into other tools — no web server required. ## Installation ```bash pip install -e . ``` This installs the core library with all signal processing dependencies (numpy, scipy, scikit-image, etc.) but **not** the web server (aiohttp). To install the full app with the server, use `pip install -e ".[server]"`. ## Quick start ```python import tono # Load an SPM data file fields = tono.load("scan.gwy") height = fields[0] # Apply a processing node leveled = tono.apply("PlaneLevelField", height) filtered = tono.apply("GaussianFilter", leveled, sigma=2.0) # Access the raw numpy array print(filtered.data.shape) # (256, 256) print(filtered.data.mean()) # height in metres ``` ## API reference ### Loading data #### `tono.load(path) -> list[DataField]` Load an SPM data file. Returns one `DataField` per channel. ```python fields = tono.load("scan.hdf5") ``` #### `tono.channel_names(path) -> list[str]` Get channel names without loading the full data. ```python names = tono.channel_names("scan.gwy") # ['Height', 'Phase', 'Amplitude'] ``` #### `tono.supported_formats() -> frozenset[str]` List all supported file extensions. ### Processing #### `tono.apply(node_name, *args, **kwargs)` Run a processing node. Positional arguments are mapped to required inputs in declaration order. Returns a single output if the node has one output, or a tuple if it has multiple. ```python # Positional: first required input is `field` result = tono.apply("GaussianFilter", my_field, sigma=3.0) # All keyword arguments result = tono.apply("GaussianFilter", field=my_field, sigma=3.0) # Nodes with multiple outputs return a tuple field_out, mask_out = tono.apply("ThresholdMask", my_field, method="otsu") ``` #### `tono.get_node(name) -> node_instance` Get a node instance for direct use. This gives full control over the node's `process()` method. ```python gauss = tono.get_node("GaussianFilter") (result,) = gauss.process(field=my_field, sigma=3.0) ``` #### `tono.nodes() -> list[str]` List all available node class names. ```python for name in tono.nodes(): print(name) ``` ### Creating data #### `tono.field(data, xreal=1e-6, yreal=1e-6, ...) -> DataField` Create a `DataField` from a numpy array. ```python import numpy as np # From a numpy array f = tono.field(np.random.randn(256, 256)) # With physical dimensions (10 um x 10 um scan) f = tono.field(data, xreal=10e-6, yreal=10e-6, si_unit_z="V") ``` ### Data types #### `DataField` The core 2D data container, analogous to Gwyddion's `GwyDataField`. | Attribute | Type | Description | |---|---|---| | `data` | `np.ndarray` | 2D float64 array (yres x xres) | | `xres`, `yres` | `int` | Pixel dimensions | | `xreal`, `yreal` | `float` | Physical dimensions in metres | | `dx`, `dy` | `float` | Pixel size in metres (property) | | `si_unit_xy` | `str` | Lateral unit (e.g. `"m"`) | | `si_unit_z` | `str` | Value unit (e.g. `"m"`, `"V"`, `"A"`) | | `domain` | `str` | `"spatial"` or `"frequency"` | Key methods: - `field.copy()` — deep copy - `field.replace(data=..., si_unit_z=...)` — copy with selected fields replaced #### Other types - `LineData` — 1D data with optional x-axis and units - `RecordTable` — list of `{quantity, value, unit}` dicts (scalar measurements) - `DataTable` — list of row dicts (tabular data like grain statistics) ## Batch processing example ```python import tono from pathlib import Path input_dir = Path("scans/") results = {} for path in input_dir.glob("*.gwy"): fields = tono.load(path) height = fields[0] # Standard processing pipeline leveled = tono.apply("PlaneLevelField", height) filtered = tono.apply("GaussianFilter", leveled, sigma=1.5) # Extract statistics stats_node = tono.get_node("Statistics") (table,) = stats_node.process(field=filtered) results[path.name] = table print(f"{path.name}: processed {height.xres}x{height.yres} " f"({height.xreal*1e6:.1f} x {height.yreal*1e6:.1f} um)") ``` ## Integration with matplotlib ```python import tono import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np fields = tono.load("scan.gwy") field = fields[0] # Convert physical coordinates for axis labels extent = [0, field.xreal * 1e6, 0, field.yreal * 1e6] # in micrometres fig, axes = plt.subplots(1, 3, figsize=(15, 4)) axes[0].imshow(field.data * 1e9, extent=extent, cmap="afmhot") axes[0].set_title("Raw") axes[0].set_xlabel("x (um)") axes[0].set_ylabel("y (um)") leveled = tono.apply("PlaneLevelField", field) axes[1].imshow(leveled.data * 1e9, extent=extent, cmap="afmhot") axes[1].set_title("Leveled") filtered = tono.apply("GaussianFilter", leveled, sigma=2.0) axes[2].imshow(filtered.data * 1e9, extent=extent, cmap="afmhot") axes[2].set_title("Filtered") for ax in axes: ax.set_xlabel("x (um)") plt.tight_layout() plt.savefig("pipeline.png", dpi=150) ``` ## Available nodes Use `tono.nodes()` to list all nodes.
