obspy.io.sac.core._write_sac_xy

_write_sac_xy(stream, filename, **kwargs)[source]

Writes a alphanumeric SAC file.

Warning

This function should NOT be called directly, it registers via the the write() method of an ObsPy Stream object, call this instead.

Parameters:
  • stream (Stream) The ObsPy Stream object to write.
  • filename (str, open file, or file-like object) Name of file to write. In case an open file or file-like object is passed, this function only supports writing Stream objects containing a single Trace. This is a limitation of the SAC file format. An exception will be raised in case it’s necessary.

Example

>>> from obspy import read
>>> st = read()
>>> st.write("testxy.sac", format="SACXY")
