Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

readdbc

✓ from pyreaddbc import readdbc

✗ import readdbc

readdbc is a module inside pyreaddbc package, not a top-level package.

read_dbc_to_dbf

✓ from pyreaddbc.readdbc import read_dbc_to_dbf

✗ from pyreaddbc import read_dbc_to_dbf

Function is inside the readdbc module, not directly under pyreaddbc package.

Convert a DBC file to DBF format. Input and output are file paths.

from pyreaddbc.readdbc import read_dbc_to_dbf read_dbc_to_dbf('input.dbc', 'output.dbf') print('Conversion complete')

Debug

Known issues

breakingIn version 1.2.0, the function 'read_dbc' was removed. Use 'read_dbc_to_dbf' instead.

fix

Replace 'read_dbc' with 'read_dbc_to_dbf'.

affects: >=1.2.0

gotchaThe returned object from 'read_dbc_to_dbf' is not a pandas DataFrame; it's a file path string (the output DBF file path).

fix

Use the returned path to read the DBF file with another library (e.g., dbfread or pandas).

affects: all

deprecatedPython 3.8 is no longer supported; Python >=3.9 required.

fix

Upgrade Python to 3.9 or higher.

affects: >=1.0.0
