API Reference

tf_fits.image.image_decode_fits(fits_data, header)

Function to decode fits binary table

fits_databyte string

byte string of data (from tf.io.read_file(file_path))

headerint

header to return

img_datatf.Tensor

tf.Tensor with dtype tf.float32 of image data

tf_fits.bintable.bintable_decode_fits(fits_data, header=1)

Function to decode fits binary table

fits_databyte string

byte string of data (from tf.io.read_file(file_path))

headerint

header to return

table_datatf.Tensor

tf.Tensor with dtype tf.float32 of table data

WILL MANGLE ANYTHING THAT IS NOT A PURE REAL NUMBER OR BOOL

As Tensorflow wants a single data type returned, strings, complex numbers, arrays of numbers will be mangled.

tf_fits.asciitable.asciitable_decode_fits(fits_data, header=1)

Function to decode fits ascii table

fits_databyte string

byte string of data (from tf.io.read_file(file_path))

headerint

header to return

table_datatf.Tensor

tf.Tensor with dtype tf.float32 of table data

WILL MANGLE ANYTHING THAT IS NOT A PURE REAL NUMBER OR BOOL

As Tensorflow wants a single data type returned, strings, complex numbers, arrays of numbers will be mangled.
