kepler_fits_reader

astropy.timeseries.io.kepler_fits_reader(filename, unit_parse_strict='warn')

This serves as the FITS reader for KEPLER or TESS files within astropy-timeseries.

This function should generally not be called directly, and instead this time series reader should be accessed with the read() method:

>>> from astropy.timeseries import TimeSeries
>>> ts = TimeSeries.read('kplr33122.fits', format='kepler.fits')  

Parameters:

filenamestr or pathlib.Path

File to load.

unit_parse_strictstr, optional

Behaviour when encountering invalid column units in the FITS header. Default is “warn”, which will emit a UnitsWarning and create a UnrecognizedUnit. Values are the ones allowed by the parse_strict argument of Unit: raise, warn and silent.

Returns:

tsTimeSeries

Data converted into a TimeSeries.
