varian-converter

Load and parse varian NMR native format.

Parse varian NMR native format.

The code currently parses 1-dimensional NMR only.

Installation

npm i varian-converter filelist-utils

Usage

The convert1D function expects a FileCollection. There are normally 4 files in a 1D fid directory:

1. fid
2. procpar
3. text
4. log

1 and 2 must exist or convert1D will error out.

FileCollections are returned from the filelist-utils package which runs both in NodeJS and the browser.

For passing multiple directories the convert1D should run in a loop, each time passing a FileCollection corresponding to the 1D (fid and procpar must exist), pushing the result object elsewhere.

Use in Browser

The user may upload:

• a zip file with the fid directory compressed
• a fid directory

See the example folder.

Use in NodeJS

• Compressed fid directory

import { join } from 'path';
import { readFileSync } from 'fs';
// allows us to load a directory in NodeJS
import { fileCollectionFromZip } from 'filelist-utils';
import { convert1D as cv } from 'varian-converter';

const zipBuffer = readFileSync(join(__dirname, 'path/to/compressed.fid.zip'));
fileCollectionFromZip(zipBuffer)
  .then((fileCollection) => cv(fileCollection))
  .then((result) => console.log(result))
  .catch((e) => console.log(e));

• Standard fid directory

import { join } from 'path';
import { fileCollectionFromPath } from 'filelist-utils';
import { convert1D as cv } from 'varian-converter';

const fileCollection = fileCollectionFromPath(
  join(__dirname, 'path/to/dir.fid'),
);
cv(fileCollection)
  .then((result) => console.log(result))
  .catch((e) => console.log(e));

Output

convert1D returns an object with the signature

{
  meta: Record<string,any>
  procpar: Record<string,any>
  fid: [data1, data2, data3..]
  x: Float64Array (time values)
}
