Convert [ADIF](https://adif.org/) ADI content (ham radio QSO logs) to dictionary and vice versa

The required/resulting dictionary format for ADI is

    {
        'HEADER': 
            {Header param: Value,
             'USERDEFS': [list of user definitions]},
        'RECORDS': [list of records]
    }

For ADI the header or each record is/must be a dictionary in the format
    
    {
        ADIF parameter name: Text value,
    }

For ADI a user definition is a dictionary of
    
    {
        'dtype': one char representing the type,
        'userdef': the field definition text
    }

The library also supports ADX import/export as compatible as possible to the ADI part. 
Though it will differ in handling application and user definitions.
It relys on the [ADX schemas](https://adif.org/314/ADIF_314.htm#ADX_Schemas) from adif.org.
For the ADX import there is no validation by default to be able to read fast.

Installation
------------
The package is available via [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/PyADIF-File/)

    pip install pyadif-file

Usage
-----

For reading and writing files you can use adi.load or adi.dump.
There is a corresponding variant for handling string: adi.loads and adi.dumps.

Here is an example for reading an ADI file:

    from adif_file import adi

    adi_doc = adi.load('qsos.adi')
    for rec in adi_doc['RECORDS']:
        if "CALL" in rec:
            print(f'QSO on {rec["QSO_DATE"]} at {rec["TIME_ON"]} with {rec["CALL"]}')

### Exporting ADI

If an empty header is provided, the fields are generated with suiting defaults.
Missing header fields are inserted.

Empty record fields and empty records are not exported at all.

*_INTL fields are not exported (see ADIF specification).
If non ASCII characters are used the API raises an Exception.
