obs_base v22.0 (2021-04-01)¶

New Feature¶

Enhance raw data ingest such that there is no longer a need for a special subclass when ingesting DECam data. The metadata translator can now find additional headers itself. [DM-29166]
Add progress reporting to raw ingest, visit definition, and 2to3 conversion.
Change raw data ingest to support remote object stores. [DM-25965]
Raw data ingest now supports external metadata sidecar files or JSON per-directory index files. Creating these sidecar files in advance (using astrometadata write-index or astrometadata write-sidecar) can significantly improve ingest performance. This is especially useful if a particular test data set is commonly re-ingested. [DM-27476]
Raw data ingest has been modified to provide a callback feature when files fail to be ingested or are successfully ingested. This allows reporting tools to make detailed reports when doing bulk ingest. [DM-29071]
2to3 conversion has been significantly improved. [DM-27147]

When reading exposures the formatter now checks that the filter label in the DataId is consistent with the filter label read from the file. [DM-28583]
