:mod:`wave` --- Read and write WAV files ======================================== .. module:: wave :synopsis: Provide an interface to the WAV sound format. .. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <moshez@zadka.site.co.il> .. Documentations stolen from comments in file. **Source code:** :source:`Lib/wave.py` -------------- The :mod:`wave` module provides a convenient interface to the WAV sound format. It does not support compression/decompression, but it does support mono/stereo. The :mod:`wave` module defines the following function and exception: .. function:: open(file[, mode]) If *file* is a string, open the file by that name, otherwise treat it as a seekable file-like object. *mode* can be any of ``'r'``, ``'rb'`` Read only mode. ``'w'``, ``'wb'`` Write only mode. Note that it does not allow read/write WAV files. A *mode* of ``'r'`` or ``'rb'`` returns a :class:`Wave_read` object, while a *mode* of ``'w'`` or ``'wb'`` returns a :class:`Wave_write` object. If *mode* is omitted and a file-like object is passed as *file*, ``file.mode`` is used as the default value for *mode* (the ``'b'`` flag is still added if necessary). If you pass in a file-like object, the wave object will not close it when its :meth:`close` method is called; it is the caller's responsibility to close the file object. .. function:: openfp(file, mode) A synonym for :func:`.open`, maintained for backwards compatibility. .. exception:: Error An error raised when something is impossible because it violates the WAV specification or hits an implementation deficiency. .. _wave-read-objects: Wave_read Objects ----------------- Wave_read objects, as returned by :func:`.open`, have the following methods: .. method:: Wave_read.close() Close the stream if it was opened by :mod:`wave`, and make the instance unusable. This is called automatically on object collection. .. method:: Wave_read.getnchannels() Returns number of audio channels (``1`` for mono, ``2`` for stereo). .. method:: Wave_read.getsampwidth() Returns sample width in bytes. .. method:: Wave_read.getframerate() Returns sampling frequency. .. method:: Wave_read.getnframes() Returns number of audio frames. .. method:: Wave_read.getcomptype() Returns compression type (``'NONE'`` is the only supported type). .. method:: Wave_read.getcompname() Human-readable version of :meth:`getcomptype`. Usually ``'not compressed'`` parallels ``'NONE'``. .. method:: Wave_read.getparams() Returns a tuple ``(nchannels, sampwidth, framerate, nframes, comptype, compname)``, equivalent to output of the :meth:`get\*` methods. .. method:: Wave_read.readframes(n) Reads and returns at most *n* frames of audio, as a string of bytes. .. method:: Wave_read.rewind() Rewind the file pointer to the beginning of the audio stream. The following two methods are defined for compatibility with the :mod:`aifc` module, and don't do anything interesting. .. method:: Wave_read.getmarkers() Returns ``None``. .. method:: Wave_read.getmark(id) Raise an error. The following two methods define a term "position" which is compatible between them, and is otherwise implementation dependent. .. method:: Wave_read.setpos(pos) Set the file pointer to the specified position. .. method:: Wave_read.tell() Return current file pointer position. .. _wave-write-objects: Wave_write Objects ------------------ Wave_write objects, as returned by :func:`.open`, have the following methods: .. method:: Wave_write.close() Make sure *nframes* is correct, and close the file if it was opened by :mod:`wave`. This method is called upon object collection. .. method:: Wave_write.setnchannels(n) Set the number of channels. .. method:: Wave_write.setsampwidth(n) Set the sample width to *n* bytes. .. method:: Wave_write.setframerate(n) Set the frame rate to *n*. .. method:: Wave_write.setnframes(n) Set the number of frames to *n*. This will be changed later if more frames are written. .. method:: Wave_write.setcomptype(type, name) Set the compression type and description. At the moment, only compression type ``NONE`` is supported, meaning no compression. .. method:: Wave_write.setparams(tuple) The *tuple* should be ``(nchannels, sampwidth, framerate, nframes, comptype, compname)``, with values valid for the :meth:`set\*` methods. Sets all parameters. .. method:: Wave_write.tell() Return current position in the file, with the same disclaimer for the :meth:`Wave_read.tell` and :meth:`Wave_read.setpos` methods. .. method:: Wave_write.writeframesraw(data) Write audio frames, without correcting *nframes*. .. method:: Wave_write.writeframes(data) Write audio frames and make sure *nframes* is correct. Note that it is invalid to set any parameters after calling :meth:`writeframes` or :meth:`writeframesraw`, and any attempt to do so will raise :exc:`wave.Error`.
