open

The following code opens the existing MDS+ pulse file for shot=54178, run=0, from the 'west' database of user 'g2lfleur':

import imas
from imas import imasdef
#creates the Data Entry object 'data_entry' associated  fromto the pulse file with shot=54178, run=0, belonging to database 'pcss_tutorialwest' of user 'g2lfleur', using the MDS+ backend
data_entry = imas.DBEntry(imasdef.MDSPLUS_BACKEND, 'pcss_tutorialwest, 54178, 0, user_name=’g2lfleur’)
#opens the pulse file associated to the Data Entry object 'data_entry' previously created
data_entry.open() 

create

Creating a new Data Entry using the MDS+ backend consists in creating a new pulse file on disk.  Therefore, you need to have write permissions for the database specified in the create() command.

So, let's first create a new database belonging to the current user.

From a new shell, execute the following command:

module load IMAS

imasdb pcss_tutorial

Now, the following code will create a new MDS+ pulse file for shot=15000, run=1 in the 'pcss_tutorial' database of the current user:

import imas
import getpass
from imas import imasdef
#creates the Data Entry object 'data_entry.open' associated to the pulse file with shot=15000, run=1, belonging to database 'pcss_tutorial' of the current user, using the MDS+ backend
data_entry = imas.DBEntry(imasdef.MDSPLUS_BACKEND, 'pcss_tutorial, 15000, 1, user_name=getpass.getuser())
#creates the pulse file associated to the Data Entry object 'data_entry' previously created
data_entry.create()
