This community-developed package provides a Python interface for reading tightly packed bits in the Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems (CCSDS) <https://public.ccsds.org/default.aspx>__ format used by many NASA and ESA missions. The library is developed with requirements sourced from the community and extensive automated testing.

Installation

To install ccsdspy

.. code::

pip install ccsdspy

Usage Example

The following example shows how simple it is to read in fixed length CCSDS packets.

.. code-block:: python

import ccsdspy from ccsdspy import PacketField, PacketArray

pkt = ccsdspy.FixedLength([ PacketField(name='SHCOARSE', data_type='uint', bit_length=32), PacketField(name='SHFINE', data_type='uint', bit_length=20), PacketField(name='OPMODE', data_type='uint', bit_length=3), PacketField(name='SPACER', data_type='fill', bit_length=1), PacketField(name='VOLTAGE', data_type='int', bit_length=8), PacketArray( name='SENSOR_GRID', data_type='uint', bit_length=16, array_shape=(32, 32), array_order='C' ), ])

result = pkt.load('mypackets.bin')
