We are happy to announce the release of HDFql 2.1.0!
This version includes (please check the release notes for further details):
- Added support for direct chunk writing/reading into/from datasets (to greatly increase performance) – thanks to Mark (University of Chicago, USA), Xiaoqiang (Paul Scherrer Institute, Switzerland), Ulrik (Diamond Light Source, UK), Tobias (Imperial College London, UK), and Stefan (Fermilab, USA) for their feedback
- Added wrapper for Python version 3.7.x
- Added capability to open an HDF5 file, define, manipulate, query, and introspect objects (i.e. groups, datasets, attributes, (soft) links, or external links) and, afterwards, close the file in one go (in all relevant operations – e.g. “CREATE DATASET”, “INSERT”, and “SELECT”)
- Updated reference manual
