how to convert thermo raw files to .mat files for matlab in javascript

In order to convert Thermo .raw files to .mat files for use in MATLAB, we can use the "RawFileReader" module from the "thermo-raw-file" package. Here are the steps to do this using JavaScript:

1. Install the "thermo-raw-file" and "matlab" packages. You can do this by running the following commands in your terminal or command prompt:

index.tsx
npm install thermo-raw-file
npm install matlab

3 lines

2. Write a JavaScript file with the following code to convert the .raw file to a .mat file:

index.tsx
const RawFileReader = require('thermo-raw-file').default;
const mat4 = require('mat4');
const Matlab = require('matlab');
const fs = require('fs');

// Load the .raw file
const filePath = 'path/to/raw/file.raw';
const rawFileReader = new RawFileReader();
rawFileReader.read(filePath)
  .then(rawData => {

    // Convert the data to a .mat file and save it
    const matData = mat4.fromArray(rawData);
    const matFile = Matlab.serialize(matData);
    fs.writeFileSync('path/to/mat/file.mat', matFile);
  })
  .catch(error => {
    console.error(error);
  });

3. Replace the "path/to/raw/file.raw" and "path/to/mat/file.mat" strings with the actual paths to your .raw and desired .mat files, respectively.

4. Run the JavaScript file using Node.js by running the following command in your terminal or command prompt:

index.tsx
node path/to/javascript/file.js

This should convert your Thermo .raw file to a .mat file that can be used in MATLAB.
