Upgrading from Version 1#
Upgrading from version 1 requires a full export of your data objects, and reimporting them after upgrading the software.
First export your databases and methods into Brightway packages:
from bw2data import *
from bw2data.io import BW2Package
for index, name in enumerate(databases):
BW2Package.export_obj(Database(name), "db-{}".format(index), "upgrade")
for index, name in enumerate(methods):
BW2Package.export_obj(Method(name), "lcia-{}".format(index), "upgrade")
# Add in any other objects you want to export here
# Might have to remove parenthese around print statement
print("Your exported objects are here:", config.request_dir("upgrade"))
Upgrade your software following the installation guide.
Each data directory would now be a new project. You can import the objects you exported earlier like this:
from brightway2 import *
import os
preferences['allow incomplete imports'] = True
filepath = "path that was printed earlier in section 1"
projects.current = "name of this project"
for filename in sorted(os.listdir(filepath)):
print(filename)
BW2Package.import_file(os.path.join(filepath, filename))
You will need to do this for each data directory you want to upgrade.
Upgrading from Version 2#
Note
<project_name>
is the name of the project you want to upgrade. You can find the name of your project by running bw2data.projects.current
.
from bw2data import *
bw2data.projects.set_current('<project_name>')
bw2data.projects.migrate_project_25()
