NDI Compress Python

This is a Python wrapper for the NDI Compression tools.

Setup

1. Create a virtual environment:

   python3 -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate

2. Install requirements:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

This package requires the NDI compression C executables to be present. By default, it looks for them in ../../C/bin relative to the ndi_compress package file. You can override this by setting the NDI_BIN_PATH environment variable.

import ndi_compress
import numpy as np

# Create some data
data = np.random.randint(0, 2, size=(100, 10)).astype(np.uint8)

# Compress
ndi_compress.compress_digital(data, "my_data")

# Expand
data_out, ratio, output_files = ndi_compress.expand_digital("my_data.nbf.tgz")
