=============================================
``ixdat``: The In-situ Experimental Data Tool
=============================================

With ``ixdat``, you can import, combine, and export complex experimental datasets
as simply as::

    ec = Measurement.read_set("awesome_EC_data", reader="biologic")
    ec.plot_measurement()

    ms = Measurement.read("2021-03-30 16_59_35 MS data.tsv", reader="zilien")
    ms.plot_measurement()

    ecms = ec + ms
    ecms.plot_measurement()

    ecms.export("my_combined_data.csv")

Output:

    In-situ experimental data made easy

Or rather than exporting, you can take advantage of ``ixdat``'s powerful analysis
tools and database backends to be a one-stop tool from messy raw data to public
repository accompanying your breakthrough publication and advancing our field.

Version
-------
This is the latest version.

For changes up to this version, see `CHANGES.rst <https://github.com/ixdat/ixdat/blob/main/CHANGES.rst>`_

For ixdat 0.1.9 see the `v0.1.x branch <https://github.com/ixdat/ixdat/tree/v0.1.x>`_.

About
-----

``ixdat`` provides a powerful **object-oriented** interface to experimental data, especially in-situ experimental data for which it is of interest to combine data obtained simultaneously from multiple techniques.

Documentation is at https://ixdat.readthedocs.io

In addition to a **pluggable** parser interface for importing your data format, ``ixdat`` also includes
pluggable exporters and plotters, as well as a database interface. A relational model of experimental data is
designed into every level.
