This products allows for dynamically building filepaths to SDSS data products hosted on the Science Archive Server (SAS). Filepaths
are dynamically constructed given a minimal name and set of keywords to be substituted via a string templating system. Data products
can also be downloaded programmatically using an Access
class which provides streaming downloads via rysnc
or curl
depending on your OS. See the full documentation at http://sdss-access.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
