nexusformat API has also been updated to v0.4.6, with a number of minor bug fixes.

<div class="">NeXpy</div>
<div class="">---------
<div class="">NeXpy provides a high-level Python interface to HDF5 files, particularly those stored as NeXus data, within a simple GUI. It is designed to provide an intuitive interactive toolbox allowing users both to access, visualize, and manipulate existing
NeXus files, and to create new NeXus-conforming data structures without expert knowledge of the file format. The underlying Python API for reading and writing NeXus files is provided by the nexusformat package, which utilizes h5py. <br class="">
