stimulus_CM.save

stimulus_CM.save(save=False, fname='nrv_save.json', blacklist=[], **kwargs) dict

Generic saving method for NRV_class instance.

Parameters:
  • save (bool, optional) – If True, saves the NRV object in a json file, by default False.

  • fname (str, optional) – Name of the json file

  • blacklist (dict, optional) – Dictionary containing the keys to be excluded from the saving.

  • **kwargs (dict, optional) – Additional arguments to pass to the save method of the NRV object.

Returns:

key_dict – dictionary containing the original instance data in a jsonisable format.

Return type:

dict

Note

  • This save method does not save the object to a json file by default: It only returns a dictionary containing the original instance data in a jsonisable format. However, this is the simplest way to do it by setting the save parameter to True.

  • The dictionary returned by this save method can be modified without having any impact on the the original instance (the items are deep copies of the instance’s attributes).
