.. _hdf5_tut_ex2:
Example 2 : A Green function
----------------------------------------------
What about more complex objects ?
The good news is that **hdf-compliant** objects can be stored easily as well.
We can store a Green function in an hdf5 file :download:`[file] <./tut_ex2.py>`:
.. literalinclude:: tut_ex2.py
Of course, we can retrieve G as easily :download:`[file] <./tut_ex2b.py>`:
.. literalinclude:: tut_ex2b.py
The structure of the HDF file is this time ::
MAC:~>h5ls -r myfile.h5
/ Group
/g1 Group
/g1/Data Dataset {2, 2, 1000}
/g1/Indices Dataset {2}
/g1/Mesh Group
/g1/Mesh/Beta Dataset {SCALAR}
/g1/Mesh/Statistic Dataset {SCALAR}
/g1/Mesh/TypeGF Dataset {SCALAR}
/g1/Mesh/array Dataset {1000}
/g1/Name Dataset {SCALAR}
/g1/Note Dataset {SCALAR}
/g1/Tail Group
/g1/Tail/Indices Dataset {2}
/g1/Tail/OrderMax Dataset {SCALAR}
/g1/Tail/OrderMaxMAX Dataset {SCALAR}
/g1/Tail/OrderMinMIN Dataset {SCALAR}
/g1/Tail/array Dataset {13, 2, 2}
/mu Dataset {SCALAR}
.. hint:: How does this work ?
The Green function implements (as detailed in :ref:`HDF_Protocol`)
* a method :func:`__reduce_to_dict__` that reduces to the Green function to a dictionary containing a mesh (Mesh), a tail (Tail), the data (Data), the indices (Indices) and so on.
* a classmethod :func:`__factory_from_dict__` that reconstructs the Green function from this dictionary.
