datreant.data: convenient data storage and retrieval for Treants

This datreant submodule adds a convenience interface for numpy and pandas data storage and retrieval using HDF5 within a Treant’s directory structure. It provides the data limb for Treants, Trees, Bundles, and Views from datreant.core.

Warning

This module is experimental. It is not API stable, and has many rough edges and limitations. It is, however, usable.

Getting datreant.data

See the installation instructions for installation details. The package itself is pure Python, but it is dependent on HDF5 libraries and the Python interfaces to these.
