Methods Documentation

cache(mnemonics, starttime, endtime, cache_path)[source]

Cache results for the list of mnemonics.

Parameters:
mnemonicsiterable

List of mnemonics to retrieve.

starttimestr or astropy.time.Time

The, inclusive, start time to retrieve from.

endtimestr or astropy.time.Time

The, inclusive, end time to retrieve from.

cache_pathstr or Path-like

Path of the cache directory.

cache_as_local(mnemonics, starttime, endtime, cache_path)[source]

Cache results for the list of mnemonics, but in the EngdbLocal format.

The target format is native to what the EngdbDirect service provides.

Parameters:
mnemonicsiterable

List of mnemonics to retrieve.

starttimestr or astropy.time.Time

The, inclusive, start time to retrieve from.

endtimestr or astropy.time.Time

The, inclusive, end time to retrieve from.

cache_pathstr or Path-like

Path of the cache directory.

configure(base_url=None, token=None)[source]

Configure from parameters and environment.

Parameters:
base_urlstr

The base url for the engineering RESTful service. If not defined, the environmental variable ENG_BASE_URL is queried. Otherwise the default MAST website is used.

tokenstr or None

The MAST access token. If not defined, the environmental variable MAST_API_TOKEN is queried. A token is required. For more information, see ‘https://auth.mast.stsci.edu/

get_meta(*kwargs)[source]

Get the mnemonics meta info.

The MAST interface does not provide any meta.

get_values(mnemonic, starttime, endtime, time_format=None, include_obstime=False, include_bracket_values=False, zip_results=True)[source]

Retrieve all results for a mnemonic in the requested time range.

Parameters:
mnemonicstr

The engineering mnemonic to retrieve

starttimestr or astropy.time.Time

The, inclusive, start time to retrieve from.

endtimestr or astropy.time.Time

The, inclusive, end time to retrieve from.

time_formatstr

The format of the input time used if the input times are strings. If None, a guess is made.

include_obstimebool

If True, the return values will include observation time as astropy.time.Time. See zip_results for further details.

include_bracket_valuesbool

The DB service, by default, returns the bracketing values outside of the requested time. If True, include these values.

zip_resultsbool

If True and include_obstime is True, the return values will be a list of 2-tuples. If false, the return will be a single 2-tuple, where each element is a list.

Returns:
values[value, …] or [(obstime, value), …] or ([obstime,…], [value, …])

Returns the list of values. See include_obstime and zip for modifications.

set_session()[source]

Set up HTTP session.
