The simplest way to manage h5 data using Pytables is to follow the following steps:

  1. Import the necessary libraries:
import tables as tb
import numpy as np
  1. Create a new h5 file with a specific name and location using tb.open_file(). You can also specify mode="w" to create a new file or mode="a" to open an existing file.
h5file = tb.open_file('fileName.h5', mode='w')
  1. Create a group to store datasets using h5file.create_group().
group = h5file.create_group('/', 'data', 'Data group')
  1. Create a new dataset using h5file.create_earray(). In this example, we are creating a 1-dimensional dataset named mydata.
mydata = h5file.create_earray(group, 'mydata', tb.Float32Atom(), shape=(0,))
  1. Append data to the dataset using mydata.append(). In this example, we are appending an array of 10 values to mydata.
data = np.random.rand(10)
mydata.append(data)
  1. Close the h5 file using h5file.close().
h5file.close()
