lsst.pipe.tasks

lsst.pipe.tasks provides many of the Task classes that drive the LSST Science Pipelines. The command-line tasks listed here are useful data processing entry points for most users. You can also assemble your own pipelines by combining individual tasks through their Python APIs.

lsst.pipe.tasks does not provide all the tasks and command-line tasks in the LSST Science Pipelines. For a complete list of all available tasks, see Task index and for an introduction to processing data see Getting started with the LSST Science Pipelines.
