Thank you, I was able to get it to work but only if I imported datetime
within the loop, otherwise I ended up with the
AttributeError: type object 'datetime.datetime' has no attribute 'datetime'
and if I added 'import datetime' at the top of my script it had an error
where I loop through combining each month
" stop_month = datetime(2011, 03, 01)
TypeError: 'module' object is not callable"
It seems very messy with importing datetime everywhere but I am not sure
what the problem is. Below is the code I am using that works:
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from numpy import ma as MA
from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap
from datetime import datetime
import os
from StringIO import StringIO
from osgeo import gdal, gdalnumeric, ogr, osr
import glob
from datetime import date, timedelta
import matplotlib.dates as mdates
import time
rainmax=[]
rainmin=[]
rainmean=[]
yearmonthlist=[]
yearmonth_int=[]
OutputFolder=r"E:/test_out/"
GLOBTEMPLATE = r"e:/Rainfall/rainfall-{year}/r{year}{month:02}??.txt"
def accumulate_month(year, month):
files = glob.glob(GLOBTEMPLATE.format(year=year, month=month))
monthlyrain=[]
for ifile in files:
f=np.genfromtxt(ifile,skip_header=6)
monthlyrain.append(f)
import datetime
yearmonth=datetime.datetime(year,month,1)
yearmonthlist.append(yearmonth)
yearmonthint=str(year)+str(month)
from datetime import date, datetime
d=datetime.strptime(yearmonthint, '%Y%m')
date_string=d.strftime('%Y%m')
yearmonthint=int(date_string)
yearmonth_int.append(yearmonthint)
r_max, r_mean, r_min=MA.max(monthlyrain), MA.mean(monthlyrain),
MA.min(monthlyrain)
rainmax.append(r_max)
rainmean.append(r_mean)
rainmin.append(r_min)
###loop through months and years
stop_month = datetime(2011, 12, 31)
month = datetime(2011, 01, 01)
while month < stop_month:
accumulate_month(month.year, month.month)
month += timedelta(days=32)
month = month.replace(day=01)
### Plot timeseries of max data
x=yearmonthlist
y=rainmax
x2=yearmonth_int
print x, y, x2
fig, ax=plt.subplots(1)
z=np.polyfit(x2,y,1)
p=np.poly1d(z)
plt.plot(x,y)
plt.plot(x,p(x2),'r--') #add trendline to plot
print "y=%.6fx+(%.6f)"%(z[0],z[1])
fig.autofmt_xdate()
ax.fmt_xdata=mdates.DateFormatter('%Y%m')
ax.xaxis.set_major_formatter(mdates.DateFormatter('%Y%m'))
plt.xlabel("year-month")
plt.ylabel("Precipitation (mm)")
plt.title("Max monthly precipition")
plt.savefig(OutputFolder+"MaxMonthlyPrecip.png")
plt.show()
