load_asn

jwst.associations.load_asn.load_asn(serialized, fmt=None, first=True, validate=True, registry=<class 'jwst.associations.registry.AssociationRegistry'>, **kwargs)[source]

Load an Association from a file or object.

Parameters:

serializedobject: The serialized form of the association.
fmtstr or None: The format to force. If None, try all available.

Deprecated since version 2.1: Only JSON format is supported now.
firstbool: A serialization potentially matches many rules. Only return the first successful load.
validatebool: Validate against the class’s defined schema, if any.
registryAssociationRegistry or None: The association registry to use. If None, no registry is used. Can be passed just a registry class instead of instance.
**kwargs: Other arguments to pass to the load methods defined in the KeyValueRegistry.

Returns:

Association: The loaded association.

Raises:

jwst.associations.exceptions.AssociationNotValidError: Cannot create or validate the association.

Notes

While the serialized object must be in JSON format, the input can be either a string or a file object containing the string.

If no registry is specified, the default load() method is used.
