Methods Documentation

emptyMetadata() → None

Empty (clear) the metadata for this Task and all sub-Tasks.

getFullMetadata() → lsst.pipe.base._task_metadata.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.

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”.
getName() → str

Get the name of the task.

Returns:
taskName : str

Name of the task.

getFullName
getSelectSources(exposure, sigma=None, doSmooth=True, idFactory=None)

Get sources to use for Psf-matching.

This method runs detection and measurement on an exposure. The returned set of sources will be used as candidates for Psf-matching.

Parameters:
exposure : lsst.afw.image.Exposure

Exposure on which to run detection/measurement

sigma : float, optional

PSF sigma, in pixels, used for smoothing the image for detection. If None, the PSF width will be used.

doSmooth : bool

Whether or not to smooth the Exposure with Psf before detection

idFactory : lsst.afw.table.IdFactory

Factory for the generation of Source ids

Returns:
selectSources :

source catalog containing candidates for the Psf-matching

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.

makeCandidateList(templateExposure, scienceExposure, kernelSize, candidateList=None, preconvolved=False)

Make a list of acceptable KernelCandidates.

Accept or generate a list of candidate sources for Psf-matching, and examine the Mask planes in both of the images for indications of bad pixels

Parameters:
templateExposure : lsst.afw.image.Exposure

Exposure that will be convolved

scienceExposure : lsst.afw.image.Exposure

Exposure that will be matched-to

kernelSize : float

Dimensions of the Psf-matching Kernel, used to grow detection footprints

candidateList : list, optional

List of Sources to examine. Elements must be of type afw.table.Source or a type that wraps a Source and has a getSource() method, such as meas.algorithms.PsfCandidateF.

preconvolved : bool, optional

Was the science exposure already convolved with its PSF?

Returns:
candidateList : list of dict

A list of dicts having a “source” and “footprint” field for the Sources deemed to be appropriate for Psf matching.

Raises:
RuntimeError

If candidateList is empty or contains incompatible types.

classmethod makeField(doc: str) → lsst.pex.config.configurableField.ConfigurableField

Make a lsst.pex.config.ConfigurableField for this task.

Parameters:
doc : str

Help text for the field.

Returns:
configurableField : lsst.pex.config.ConfigurableField

A ConfigurableField for this task.

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")
makeKernelBasisList(targetFwhmPix=None, referenceFwhmPix=None, basisDegGauss=None, basisSigmaGauss=None, metadata=None)
