Hello,

I'd like to point out also my python library/script called "rugutils". This one started off inspired by David's scidata (and pygraph), but has developed into a set of tools to look in a quick and hassle-free way at Carpet data. It's written in python 3.5

Hello Frank, Michael,

@Michael: both of what Frank or David describe should work. If you know
how to compile the VisIt reader yourselv, you can also try the copy of
CarpetHDF5 at https://bitbucket.org/rhaas80/carpethdf5 either the
"multifile" branch (which is the default one that has all features) or
the "for_VisIt" branch which has fewer features and is what I wanted at
one point propose for inclusion in VisIt. Both will let you
create .visit files listing your hdf5 files and VisIt will treat them a
a single database. You will have to create .visit files that look like
this:

!NBLOCKS 3
output-0000/rho.file_0.h5
output-0000/rho.file_1.h5
output-0000/rho.file_2.h5
output-0001/rho.file_0.h5
output-0001/rho.file_1.h5
output-0001/rho.file_2.h5

for a 3 process run and similar for runs with more processes. You can probably (I have not tested this) also list both rho and eps:

!NBLOCKS 3
output-0000/rho.file_0.h5
output-0000/rho.file_1.h5
output-0000/rho.file_2.h5
output-0000/eps.file_0.h5
output-0000/eps.file_1.h5
output-0000/eps.file_2.h5
output-0001/rho.file_0.h5
output-0001/rho.file_1.h5
output-0001/rho.file_2.h5
output-0001/eps.file_0.h5
output-0001/eps.file_1.h5
output-0001/eps.file_2.h5

possibly you have to set NBLOCKS to 6 (2*3) for this, though I have not tested
this either.

As far as I can tell this code change has not even made it into the ET
maintained copy of the reader:
https://svn.cactuscode.org/VizTools/CarpetHDF5/

where if this does not cause any other problems I think it would be
welcome as well.

Yours,
Roland
