mne.viz.compare_fiff¶

mne.viz.compare_fiff(fname_1, fname_2, fname_out=None, show=True, indent=' ', read_limit=inf, max_str=30, verbose=None)[source]¶

Compare the contents of two fiff files using diff and show_fiff.

Parameters

fname_1str: First file to compare.
fname_2str: Second file to compare.
fname_outstr | None: Filename to store the resulting diff. If None, a temporary file will be created.
showbool: If True, show the resulting diff in a new tab in a web browser.
indentstr: How to indent the lines.
read_limitint: Max number of bytes of data to read from a tag. Can be np.inf to always read all data (helps test read completion).
max_strint: Max number of characters of string representation to print for each tag’s data.
verbosebool, str, int, or None: If not None, override default verbose level (see mne.verbose() and Logging documentation for more). If used, it should be passed as a keyword-argument only.

Returns

fname_outstr: The filename used for storing the diff. Could be useful for when a temporary file is used.
