pyiron_base.jobs.job.base.recursive_load_from_hdf(project_hdf5: ProjectHDFio, item: str)[source]#

Load given item from HDF, but check also for DataContainer along the way.

If item exists as is in HDF, return it, otherwise break it up along every slash and try to load a DataContainer and then try to index with the remainder of the path, i.e.

>>> recursive_load_from_hdf(hdf, 'my/path/to/value')

is equivalent to one of (in this order)

>>> hdf['my/path/to'].to_object()['value']
>>> hdf['my/path'].to_object()['to/value']
>>> hdf['my'].to_object()['path/to/value']

in case

>>> hdf['/my/path/to/value']

doesn’t exist.

Parameters:

  • project_hdf5 (ProjectHDFio) – HDF file to access

  • item (str) – path to value, may contain /
