Hi all, I'm trying to store some data into pytables. Most of these are strings, their length varies in two values. I can of course create a class with StringCol elements sized at the maximum value, to accommodate both. I was thinking, instead, to create two separate tables and insert values in this or that, depending on the string length. In case of two values it's easy to implement two classes, unfortunately in real data these two values vary too (i.e. in my data can be 27 and 39, in other 16 and 24...), so I would like to have a template class, which I can instantiate with proper values depending on what I found. Problem is that I don't think I can safely override __init__() method for tables.IsDescription... In the end, two classes like
class MyEntry_long(tables.IsDescription):
stream = tables.StringCol(39)
class MyEntry_short(tables.IsDescription):
stream = tables.StringCol(26)
class MyEntry(tables.IsDescription):
def __init__(self, par = 39):
stream = tables.StringCol(par)
In other words, can I instantiate my entries passing parameters? maybe this is
already possible in a more clean way :-)
Thanks
