To do
This is a collection of things that need to be done. The order doesn't imply any priority. These tasks may be turned into tickets and assigned to milestones.
- use ordered dict as default in YAML (makes writing back in the order of reading possible) --> patch to YAML
- allow unlimited nesting levels in data (there are only two levels now)
- check for entries in data that are not in default
- add property require for keywords that should not work with default values
- implement more readers/writers for other formats (PyTables, Excel, dBase)
- write unit/doc tests
- add checks and conversions for physical units
- make dump aware of numpy arrays
- allow lazy reading of large files (use generators/iterators)
- define API
- write documentation, tutorial etc.
- write desktop GUI
- write web GUI
- write example applications that use PyModelData
- make list with projects/applications/models that use PyModeldata
- develop plugin system for custom readers/writes (do thorough research on existing plugin systems)
- idea: access to model data via SQLite database
- more ...
