store — Interface to remote data storage

Warning

The store module is under construction. Its purpose is to provide a simple interface for accessing large data files, stored remotly. Currently it uses GitHub release area, which is a bit of a hack.

grand.store.get(name: str, tag: str = '101') → bytes

Get a BLOB from the store.

For example, the following retrieves an SRTMGL1 topography tile from the store, as a bytes object.

>>> data = store.get('N39E090.SRTMGL1.hgt')

class grand.store.InvalidBLOB

Wrapper for store errors.
