Simple, extendable framework for loading generic products from disk.

Contact

For any questions please reach out to Zach Atkins (email: [email protected], github: @zatkins2).

Dependencies

Currently:

  • from simonsobs: pixell
    • mnms is required if you are using sofind for any functionality related to mnms products.

All other dependencies (e.g. numpy etc.) are required by packages listed here, especially by pixell.

Installation

Clone this repo and install it via pip:

$ pip install path/to/sofind

or

$ pip install -e path/to/sofind

to see changes to source code automatically updated in your environment.

Quick Setup

Users only need to set one environment variable, SOFIND_SYSTEM, corresponding to the name of the cluster they are working on. Supported systems are listed in sofind/systems.py (e.g. della, perlmutter).

Usage

All you need in your code is the following (e.g. for the act_dr6v4 data model):

from sofind import DataModel

# use the from_config method to specify the data model at runtime
dm = DataModel.from_config('act_dr6v4')

# a qid is an identifier tag for a dataset, like a detector array
my_qid = 'pa4a'

# have fun
my_default_map_filename = dm.get_map_fn(my_qid, **more_kwargs)
my_el_split_map = dm.read_map(my_qid, subproduct='el_split', el_split='el1')

Users should only ever interface with the high-level DataModel class. This class inherits from all implemented sofind products! Available qids for a particular data model or product are available either by following the qids_config entry in the data model config itself (referring to a particular file in sofind/qids) or should be documented for the product (see, e.g., the sofind/products/maps README file).

If you would like to add a system to sofind

There are two simple steps:

  1. Add the system name to sofind/systems.py
  2. For a given product .yaml file, add the location of the product on-disk on that system under the system_paths block. Of course, this does not add that product to that system in that location; that must happen outside sofind.

If you would like to contribute a product to sofind

There are four steps:

  1. Create a new product folder in the sofind/products directory. Add to this folder a python module named __init__.py.

    • There is a minimum prescription your subclass implementation must follow. To make it easy, a template of this implementation (for a product called HotDog) can be copied from sofind/products/hotdogs/__init__.py. You should not delete the template class declaration or __init__ method (but you may add to them), and you must modify the sofind.products.products.Product methods decorated with @productmethod. Note the template has more detail on how to implement your product class. You can also look at e.g. sofind.products.maps.Map for inspiration.
    • Anything beyond this minimal perscription can be added if your product has more complicated features!
  2. Make sure your product is imported directly by the sofind.products package. For instance, if your module was named hotdogs and your particular class named HotDog, then add this line to sofind.products.__init__.py:

    from .hotdogs import HotDog
  3. Add a config (or multiple configs if you have multiple product versions, or subproducts, etc.) to sofind/products/{module_name}. Following the hotdog example, there is a config file hotdog_example.yaml in sofind/products/hotdogs.

    • This must be a .yaml file.
    • You must have a system_paths block. This will have entries for a subset of the available clusters in sofind/systems.py. Each entry will point to a path giving the directory on that system in which the product files are located.
    • You must have an allowed_qids_configs block. If your subproduct is agnostic to qids, this can be all; otherwise, it must list the individual qids_config files (in sofind/qids) that this subproduct may work with.
    • You must have an allowed_qids block. If your product methods use a qid to provide keywords to filename templates, then the permissible qid(s) for that product must be listed here. May also be all or left blank if no qid(s) work with your subproduct. For instance, a call to HotDog.read_hotdog will raise an error if hotdog_example.yaml is used to configure the calling DataModel instance and the supplied qid is not one of pa4a, pa5a, or pa6a.
    • You must have an allowed_qids_extra_kwargs block. If your template filename requires additional keywords for a given qid than are present in any allowed_qids_configs files (see sofind/qids), those keywords would need to be added here. For instance, the act_dr6_default_qids.yaml file only contains array, freq, patch, and daynight keywords. The num_splits keyword required for the hotdog_file_template is thus added for each permissible qid directly in hotdog_example.yaml, e.g.:
      allowed_qids_extra_kwargs:
          pa6a:
              num_splits: 8
      The allowed_qids_extra_kwargs block may be empty if there are no extra keywords to add for any of the allowed_qids.
    • This should contain any information to help get filenames for your product or load them from disk, such as a template filename. For instance, given a set of keyword arguments array='pa6', freq='f090', num_splits=8, condiment='mustard', the hotdog_file_template string in hotdog_example.yaml would format to pa6_f090_8way_mustard.txt (the actual formatting would occur in your HotDog class's get_hotdog_fn method).
  4. Clearly document product implementations and product configs. For example, see the docstrings in the Map class (sofind/products/maps/__init__.py) as well as the maps readme (sofind/products/maps/README.md).

Please commit and push your contribution to a new branch and open a PR on github! If you are updating an old config, please include it under a new file altogether so that historical products may still be loaded at runtime.

If you would like to contribute a data model to sofind

There are one (maybe two) steps:

  1. Create a new data model config in sofind/datamodels.
    • This config must have a block for each product this data model will load. Note, it is not necessary to have a block for every product in sofind, only those that will be functional in this data model. The same goes for subproducts of a product -- include only those that will be functional in this data model. To add a subproduct, include an entry under the associated product block like:
      prod:
          subprod_config: config.yaml
      where prod and subprod are the names of the product and subproduct that may be called by the DataModel.
    • This config file must also have an entry for a qids_config (at the top-level), indicating one of the qid config files under sofind/qids.
  2. Only if one of the included qid config files are not sufficient for your needs, you'll need to add another one with your qids.

Please commit and push your contribution to a new branch and open a PR on github! If you are updating an old config, please include it under a new file altogether so that historical products may still be loaded at runtime.
