Read multiple files using regular expression

This example shows how to read several SPC files which are located inside a folder.

Out:

The SPC files will be search in: /home/docs/checkouts/readthedocs.org/user_builds/specio/checkouts/latest/examples/reader/data/*.spc

# Get the path to the data relatively to this example

spc_filenames = os.path.join(DATA_PATH, 'data', '*.spc')

# Read the data
spectra = specread(spc_filenames)

# Plot the first spectra
plt.plot(spectra.wavelength,
         spectra.amplitudes.T)

# We get the axis information by using the meta data of the first file read.
plt.xlabel(spectra.meta[0]['xlabel'])
plt.ylabel(spectra.meta[0]['ylabel'])
plt.show()
