Hi Matthew, I guess something like this could do the trick: ------------------------- import gzip import pybel
mol = pybel.readfile('sdf', 'filename.sdf').next() outfilename = 'example.sdf.gz' output = gzip.open(outfilename, 'wb') molString = mol.write(format='sdf') output.write(molString) output.close() ------------------------- I didn't tested but I don't see why it shouldn't work(TM) S On 04/24/2015 03:12 PM, Matthew Lardy wrote: > Hi all, > > Does anyone have a route to write compressed sdf.gz files that are compatible > with > pybel.Outputfile? > > Thanks in advance! > Matthew -- Stefano Forli, PhD Staff Scientist Molecular Graphics Laboratory Dept. of Integrative Structural and Computational Biology, MB-112F The Scripps Research Institute 10550 North Torrey Pines Road La Jolla, CA 92037-1000, USA. tel: +1 (858)784-2055 fax: +1 (858)784-2860 email: fo...@scripps.edu http://www.scripps.edu/~forli/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ One dashboard for servers and applications across Physical-Virtual-Cloud Widest out-of-the-box monitoring support with 50+ applications Performance metrics, stats and reports that give you Actionable Insights Deep dive visibility with transaction tracing using APM Insight. http://ad.doubleclick.net/ddm/clk/290420510;117567292;y _______________________________________________ OpenBabel-discuss mailing list OpenBabel-discuss@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/openbabel-discuss
