astropy.io.misc.fnpickle(object, fileorname, protocol=None, append=False)[source]#

Deprecated since version 6.0: Use pickle from standard library, if you must

Pickle an object to a specified file.

Parameters:

object: The python object to pickle.
fileornamestr or file-like object: The filename or file into which the object should be pickled. If a file object, it should have been opened in binary mode.
protocolint or None: Pickle protocol to use - see the pickle module for details on these options. If None, the most recent protocol will be used.
appendbool: If True, the object is appended to the end of the file, otherwise the file will be overwritten (if a file object is given instead of a file name, this has no effect).
