Downloading ROD files

This how-to shows how to download single or multiple files from the Raman Open Database.

Download of individual ROD files

If you have installed pynxtools-raman you can add a new command to download .rod files. For example, you can download a rod file with the ID 1000679 via:

download_rod_file 1000679

Download of multiple ROD files

Adjust the file download_rods_script.shto the range of download you want. Default start is 1 and default end is 3. Please, do not trigger unnecessary multiple amounts of downloads.

Take a look here, to get valid .rod IDs. The list of .rod IDs can be accessed here.

chmod +x download_rods_script.sh

and execute the script

./src/download_rod_files/download_rods_script.sh
