PyJibe for .ARDF Files

[vinpai327]

Hi! I wanted to use PyJibe to analyze Force Maps in the .ARDF file format generated using an Asylum AFM. I can extract these as a series of .ibw force curves, but each file contains quite a large series of curves and PyJibe throws all sorts of errors when I try to do this. How would one go about implementing support for this new format in PyJibe?

Hi @vinpai327

have you seen the documentation at https://afmformats.readthedocs.io/en/stable/sec_new_formats.html?

At good starting point would probably be the simple file format readers as a reference (e.g. https://github.com/AFM-analysis/afmformats/blob/master/afmformats/formats/fmt_hdf5.py).

@vinpai327, do you have an example file you can upload so that I can look into this?
