obj2hdf
(hdf, obj, name=None, memo=None, noid=False, **kwargs)¶ Store an object instance in an HDF5 group.
A given object instance is (recursively) disassembled into pieces that are storable in HDF5. In general, any pickable object should be storable, but since the parser is not complete, it might not be possible (yet).
Warning
Currently, the parser does not track recursions. If an object contains recursive references all bets are off. Here be dragons...
Parameters: hdf : HDF5 group instance
HDF5 group instance. this could also be an HDF5 file instance.
obj : object instance
Object instance that shall be stored.
name : str or None
Name of the object. In case of a complex object that cannot be stored natively without disassembling them, this is going to be a new group, Otherwise the name of the dataset. If None, no new group is created.
memo : dict
Dictionary tracking stored objects to prevent recursions (analog to deepcopy).
noid : bool
If True, the to be processed object has no usable id. Set if storing objects that were created temporarily, e.g. during type conversions.
**kwargs
All additional arguments will be passed to
h5py.Group.create_dataset()
