Using Github Codespaces with h5pyd - John Readey on Call the Doctor
Description
In this episode of Call the Doctor, John Readey introduced GitHub Codespaces and demonstrates their use with the h5pyd repository. Codespaces allow running a repository in the cloud without local setup. The speaker sets up a Codespace for the h5pyd repository, demonstrating its integration with VS Code, terminal access, and execution of h5pyd commands like hsinfo and python test. They showcase practical examples such as reading and writing HDF5 files, leveraging the S3 interface for data access, and utilizing Jupyter notebooks for data analysis. The video highlights how Codespaces simplify environment setup and enable handling large datasets efficiently through HSDS integration.

Call the Doctor is a series of weekly, unscripted, live events! The HDF Group’s staff members will answer attendee questions and, for example, go over the previous week’s HDF Forum posts. The HDF Clinics are free sessions intended to help users tackle real-world HDF problems from a common cold to severe headaches and offer relief where that’s possible. As time permits, we will include how-tos, offer advice on tool usage, review your code samples, teach you survival in the documentation jungle, and discuss what’s new or just around the corner in the land of HDF.
