FilterDefinitionCollection

class lsst.obs.base.FilterDefinitionCollection(*filters)

Bases: collections.abc.Sequence, typing.Generic

An order-preserving collection of multiple FilterDefinition.

Parameters:
filters : Sequence

The filters in this collection.

Methods Summary

count(value)
defineFilters() Define all the filters to lsst.afw.image.Filter.
findAll(name) Return the FilterDefinitions that match a particular name.
index(value, [start, [stop]]) Raises ValueError if the value is not present.
reset() Reset the afw Filter definitions and clear the defined singleton.

Methods Documentation

count(value) → integer -- return number of occurrences of value
defineFilters() → None

Define all the filters to lsst.afw.image.Filter.

Filter objects are singletons, so we protect against filters being defined multiple times.

Raises:
RuntimeError

Raised if any other FilterDefinitionCollection has already called defineFilters.

findAll(name: str) → Set[lsst.obs.base.filters.FilterDefinition]

Return the FilterDefinitions that match a particular name.

This method makes no attempt to prioritize, e.g., band names over physical filter names; any definition that makes any reference to the name is returned.

Parameters:
name : str

The name to search for. May be any band, physical, or alias name.

Returns:
matches : set [FilterDefinition]

All FilterDefinitions containing name as one of their filter names.

index(value[, start[, stop]]) → integer -- return first index of value.

Raises ValueError if the value is not present.

Supporting start and stop arguments is optional, but recommended.

classmethod reset() → None

Reset the afw Filter definitions and clear the defined singleton. Use this in unittests that define different filters.
