Bladed Results Viewer

Standalone results viewer providing enhanced functionality.

Bladed Results API v2

The Bladed Results API is an easy, fast, and robust way to access Bladed results using Python. It provides features for:

• Discovering Bladed runs
• Finding variables in runs
• Getting data from variables
• Reporting run and variable metadata
• Writing user-defined output groups

The Results API is a standalone tool which complements the Project and Batch APIs. The Results API does not require a Bladed license for its use.

What's new in Results API 2.1

• Cross-version support
  • Scripts can now work with results from any past or future Bladed version. If a variable or group is not found, the API automatically checks for renamed alternatives.
  • This behaviour can be disabled using ResultsApi.SearchSettings.retry_using_alternative_name = False.
• Updated tooling
  • Upgraded to NumPy 2.
  • Added support for Python 3.13 and 3.14.
• Faster performance
  • Significant speed-up when reading ASCII result files.
  • Various other performance and stability improvements across the API.
• Improved debugging
  • Metadata values previously accessed via get_ functions are now available as properties, which are automatically evaluated in the IDE.
  • Existing scripts using the old get_ function names will need to be updated to use the new properties. For example, variable.get_name() has been replaced with variable.name.

What's new in Results API 2.0

• Reading data is faster compared to Results API v1
• No need to install any additional packages (e.g. pythonnet)
• Language-neutral naming conventions, implicit typing, docstrings and error messages offer Python programmers a more natural experience, regardless of the user’s choice of IDE

Installation

The Results API can be installed using pip:
pip install --upgrade dnv-bladed-results

The pip package is only currently supported on Windows, and is compatible with Python 3.9 to 3.14.
