Very soon I will merge to master another batch of changes to Butler (I’m waiting for a final sanity check from Jenkins). It includes a little bit of proof-of-concept/example code in the form of test cases. It also includes infrastructure work.
The new unit tests are reposInButler.py
and repoFindByDate.py
. There will be more discussion of these, probably in a RFD related to DM-4168 “Data repository selection based on version”.
Changes that are noteworthy or may cause issues with existing code include:
-
registries.py
(PosixRegistry
,SqliteRegistry
) and fsScanner.py are moved fromdaf_butlerUtils
todaf_persistence
. - reordered include statements in
lsst/daf/persistence/__init__.py
for better dependency management - moves reading & writing from and to the filesystem from Butler and Access to PosixStorage
- note that there are “wet paint” classes where definition & API are work-in-progress and should not be used directly by butler users. In relevant classes & functions there are notes in docstrings indicating this. These include:
access.py
posixStorage.py
regestries.py
If you run into confusing issues please feel free to contact me.
