Read an IDL .sav file. 

 

Parameters 

---------- 

file_name : str 

Name of the IDL save file. 

idict : dict, optional 

Dictionary in which to insert .sav file variables. 

python_dict : bool, optional 

By default, the object return is not a Python dictionary, but a 

case-insensitive dictionary with item, attribute, and call access 

to variables. To get a standard Python dictionary, set this option 

to True. 

uncompressed_file_name : str, optional 

This option only has an effect for .sav files written with the 

/compress option. If a file name is specified, compressed .sav 

files are uncompressed to this file. Otherwise, readsav will use 

the `tempfile` module to determine a temporary filename 

automatically, and will remove the temporary file upon successfully 

reading it in. 

verbose : bool, optional 

Whether to print out information about the save file, including 

the records read, and available variables. 

 

Returns 

------- 

idl_dict : AttrDict or dict 

If `python_dict` is set to False (default), this function returns a 

case-insensitive dictionary with item, attribute, and call access 

to variables. If `python_dict` is set to True, this function 

returns a Python dictionary with all variable names in lowercase. 

If `idict` was specified, then variables are written to the 

dictionary specified, and the updated dictionary is returned.
