usage: h5repack [OPTIONS] file1 file2 file1 Input HDF5 File file2 Output HDF5 File OPTIONS -h, --help Print a usage message and exit -v, --verbose Verbose mode, print object information -V, --version Print version number and exit -n, --native Use a native HDF5 type when repacking -L, --latest Use latest version of file format -c L1, --compact=L1 Maximum number of links in header messages -d L2, --indexed=L2 Minimum number of links in the indexed format -s S[:F], --ssize=S[:F] Shared object header message minimum size -m M, --minimum=M Do not apply the filter to datasets smaller than M -e E, --file=E Name of file E with the -f and -l options -u U, --ublock=U Name of file U with user block data to be added -b B, --block=B Size of user block to be added -M A, --metadata_block_size=A Metadata block size for H5Pset_meta_block_size -t T, --threshold=T Threshold value for H5Pset_alignment -a A, --alignment=A Alignment value for H5Pset_alignment -q Q, --sort_by=Q Sort groups and attributes by index Q -z Z, --sort_order=Z Sort groups and attributes by order Z -f FILT, --filter=FILT Filter type -l LAYT, --layout=LAYT Layout type M - is an integer greater than 1, size of dataset in bytes (default is 0) E - is a filename. S - is an integer U - is a filename. T - is an integer A - is an integer greater than zero Q - is the sort index type for the input file. It can be "name" or "creation_order" (default) Z - is the sort order type for the input file. It can be "descending" or "ascending" (default) B - is the user block size, any value that is 512 or greater and is a power of 2 (1024 default) F - is the shared object header message type, any of . If F is not specified, S applies to all messages --enable-error-stack Prints messages from the HDF5 error stack as they occur. FILT - is a string with the format: := is a comma separated list of object names, meaning apply compression only to those objects. If no names are specified, the filter is applied to all objects can be: GZIP, to apply the HDF5 GZIP filter (GZIP compression) SZIP, to apply the HDF5 SZIP filter (SZIP compression) SHUF, to apply the HDF5 shuffle filter FLET, to apply the HDF5 checksum filter NBIT, to apply the HDF5 NBIT filter (NBIT compression) SOFF, to apply the HDF5 Scale/Offset filter UD, to apply a user defined filter NONE, to remove all filters is optional filter parameter information GZIP= from 1-9 SZIP= pixels per block is a even number in 2-32 and coding method is either EC or NN SHUF (no parameter) FLET (no parameter) NBIT (no parameter) SOFF= scale_factor is an integer and scale_type is either IN or DS UD= required values for filter_number,filter_flag,cd_value_count,value_1 optional values for value_2 to value_N NONE (no parameter) LAYT - is a string with the format: := is a comma separated list of object names, meaning that layout information is supplied for those objects. If no names are specified, the layout type is applied to all objects can be: CHUNK, to apply chunking layout COMPA, to apply compact layout CONTI, to apply contiguous layout is optional layout information CHUNK=DIM[xDIM...xDIM], the chunk size of each dimension COMPA (no parameter) CONTI (no parameter) Examples of use: 1) h5repack -v -f GZIP=1 file1 file2 GZIP compression with level 1 to all objects 2) h5repack -v -f dset1:SZIP=8,NN file1 file2 SZIP compression with 8 pixels per block and NN coding method to object dset1 3) h5repack -v -l dset1,dset2:CHUNK=20x10 -f dset3,dset4,dset5:NONE file1 file2 Chunked layout, with a layout size of 20x10, to objects dset1 and dset2 and remove filters to objects dset3, dset4, dset5 4) h5repack -L -c 10 -s 20:dtype file1 file2 Using latest file format with maximum compact group size of 10 and and minimum shared datatype size of 20 5) h5repack -f SHUF -f GZIP=1 file1 file2 Add both filters SHUF and GZIP in this order to all datasets 6) h5repack -f UD=307,0,1,9 file1 file2 Add bzip2 filter to all datasets
