CatalogMatchTask¶
- class lsst.analysis.tools.tasks.CatalogMatchTask(*, config: PipelineTaskConfig | None = None, log: logging.Logger | LsstLogAdapter | None = None, initInputs: dict[str, Any] | None = None, **kwargs: Any)¶
Bases:
PipelineTask
The base task for matching catalogs. Figures out which columns it needs to grab for the downstream tasks and then matches the two tables together and returns the matched and joined table including the extra columns.

Empty (clear) the metadata for this Task and all sub-Tasks.
Get metadata for all tasks.
Get the task name as a hierarchical name including parent task names.
getName
()Get the name of the task.
Get a dictionary of all tasks as a shallow copy.
makeField
(doc)Make a
lsst.pex.config.ConfigurableField
for this task.makeSubtask
(name, **keyArgs)Create a subtask as a new instance as the
name
attribute of this task.prepColumns
(bands)Get all the columns needed for downstream tasks.
run
(*, targetCatalog, refCatalog, bands)Takes the two catalogs and returns the matched one.
runQuantum
(butlerQC, inputRefs, outputRefs)Implemented in the inherited tasks
timer
(name[, logLevel])Context manager to log performance data for an arbitrary block of code.

Methods Documentation
- getFullMetadata() TaskMetadata ¶
Get metadata for all tasks.
- Returns:
- metadata
TaskMetadata
The keys are the full task name. Values are metadata for the top-level task and all subtasks, sub-subtasks, etc.
- metadata
Notes
The returned metadata includes timing information (if
@timer.timeMethod
is used) and any metadata set by the task. The name of each item consists of the full task name with.
replaced by:
, followed by.
and the name of the item, e.g.:topLevelTaskName:subtaskName:subsubtaskName.itemName
using
:
in the full task name disambiguates the rare situation that a task has a subtask and a metadata item with the same name.
- getFullName() str ¶
Get the task name as a hierarchical name including parent task names.
- Returns:
- fullName
str
The full name consists of the name of the parent task and each subtask separated by periods. For example:
The full name of top-level task “top” is simply “top”.
The full name of subtask “sub” of top-level task “top” is “top.sub”.
The full name of subtask “sub2” of subtask “sub” of top-level task “top” is “top.sub.sub2”.
- fullName
- getName() str ¶
Get the name of the task.
- Returns:
- taskName
str
Name of the task.
- taskName
See also
getFullName
Get the full name of the task.
- getTaskDict() dict[str, weakref.ReferenceType[lsst.pipe.base.task.Task]] ¶
Get a dictionary of all tasks as a shallow copy.
- Returns:
- taskDict
dict
Dictionary containing full task name: task object for the top-level task and all subtasks, sub-subtasks, etc.
- taskDict
- classmethod makeField(doc: str) ConfigurableField ¶
Make a
lsst.pex.config.ConfigurableField
for this task.- Parameters:
- doc
str
Help text for the field.
- doc
- Returns:
- configurableField
lsst.pex.config.ConfigurableField
A
ConfigurableField
for this task.
- configurableField
Examples
Provides a convenient way to specify this task is a subtask of another task.
Here is an example of use:
class OtherTaskConfig(lsst.pex.config.Config): aSubtask = ATaskClass.makeField("brief description of task")
- makeSubtask(name: str, **keyArgs: Any) None ¶
Create a subtask as a new instance as the
name
attribute of this task.- Parameters:
- name
str
Brief name of the subtask.
- **keyArgs
Extra keyword arguments used to construct the task. The following arguments are automatically provided and cannot be overridden:
config
.parentTask
.
- name
Notes
The subtask must be defined by
Task.config.name
, an instance ofConfigurableField
orRegistryField
.
- prepColumns(bands)¶
Get all the columns needed for downstream tasks. Both those from the selectors and those specified in the config options.
- run(*, targetCatalog, refCatalog, bands)¶
Takes the two catalogs and returns the matched one.
- Parameters:
- `targetCatalog`astropy.table.Table
The catalog to be matched
- `refCatalog`astropy.table.Table
The catalog to be matched to
- `bands`list
A list of bands to apply the selectors in
- Returns:
- `matchedCatalog`astropy.table.Table
Notes
Performs an RA/Dec match that returns the closest match within the match radius which defaults to 1.0 arcsecond. Applies the suffix, _target, to the catalog being matched and _ref to the reference catalog being matched to.
- runQuantum(butlerQC, inputRefs, outputRefs)¶
Implemented in the inherited tasks
