lib.parameter.ParamName

class lib.parameter.ParamName(*names)

Bases: lib.utils.BaseClass

Class representing a parameter name.

tuple

Tuple of string, typically (section, name), e.g. ('galaxy_bias','b1').

Type

tuple

Initialize ParamName.

Parameters

names (tuple, list, string, Parameter, ParamName) –

Can be:

• tuple or list of strings, e.g. ('galaxy_bias','b1')

• string with sections separated by a dot, e.g. 'galaxy_bias.b1'

• Parameter instance, in which case its name attribute is copied.

• ParamName instance, which is copied.

Methods

add_suffix	Add suffix to parameter name, i.e. append ‘_suffix’.
copy	Return shallow copy of self.
deepcopy
from_state	Instantiate and initalize class with state dictionary.
is_mpi_broadcast
is_mpi_gathered
is_mpi_root
is_mpi_scattered
load	Load class in numpy binary format from disk.
load_auto	If different formats are possible, this method should between them based on file name extension.
log_critical
log_debug
log_error
log_info
log_warning
save	Save class to disk.
save_auto	If different formats are possible, this method should between them based on file name extension.

Attributes

logger
mpiattrs	MPI attributes
mpicomm
mpiroot
mpistate
sep

add_suffix(suffix)

Add suffix to parameter name, i.e. append ‘_suffix’.

copy()

Return shallow copy of self.

classmethod from_state(state, mpiroot=0, mpicomm=None)

Instantiate and initalize class with state dictionary.

classmethod load(filename, mpiroot=0, mpicomm=None)

Load class in numpy binary format from disk. If the loaded state contains __class__ and that exists in cls._registry, return instance of cls._registry[__class__] (instead of cls).

load_auto(*args, **kwargs)

If different formats are possible, this method should between them based on file name extension.

property mpiattrs

MPI attributes

save(filename)

Save class to disk.

save_auto(*args, **kwargs)

If different formats are possible, this method should between them based on file name extension.
