A feature has been added to Butler that allows a single object to be accessed, by Butler.get
or Butler.put
, that contains one or more component dataset objects that have been read, or are written, separately from/to disk. Documentation about Composite Datasets can be found in the draft version of LDM-463
@jbosch provided the feature description and use cases for this feature. The use cases and some of the supporting design pseudocode can be found on confluence.
This feature is ‘done’ for the time being. Jim and I would like for people to use the feature and ask for help where needed and provide feedback. We will gather feature requests and work with schedulers to schedule any needed additional work.
