grass.experimental package¶
Experimental code, all can change

class
grass.experimental.
MapsetSession
(name, *, create=False, overwrite=False, ensure=False, env=None)[source]¶ Bases:
object
Session in another mapset in the same location
By default, it assumes that the mapset exists and raises ValueError otherwise. Use create to create a new mapset and add overwrite to delete an existing one of the same name (with all the data in it) before the new one is created. To use an existing mapset if it exist and create it if it doesn’t exist, use ensure.
Note that ensure will not create a new mapset if the current is invalid. Invalid mapset may mean corrupt data, so it is not clear what to do. Using create with overwrite will work on an invalid mapset because the existing mapset is always deleted with overwrite enabled.
Standard use of the object is to use it as a context manager, i.e., create it using the
with
statement. Then use its env property to pass the environment variables for the session to subprocesses:>>> with MapsetSession(name, ensure=True) as session: ... run_command("r.surf.fractal", output="surface", env=session.env)
This session expects an existing GRASS runtime environment.
The name argument is positional-only.
New in version 8.4.
Starts the session and creates the mapset if requested
-
property
active
¶ True if session is active (i.e., not finished)
-
property
env
¶ Mapping object with environment variables
This is suitable for subprocess which should run this mapset.
-
finish
()[source]¶ Finish the session.
If not used as a context manager, call explicitly to clean and close the mapset and finish the session. No GRASS modules can be called afterwards with the environment obtained from this object.

TemporaryMapsetSession
(*, location=None, env=None)[source]¶ Bases:

Use create to create a new mapset and add overwrite to delete an existing one of the same name (with all the data in it) before the new one is created.

create_temporary_mapset
(path, location=None) → grass.grassdb.manage.MapsetPath[source]¶ Create temporary mapset
The user of this function is responsible for deleting the contents of the temporary directory and the directory itself when done with it.
-
grass.experimental.
require_create_ensure_mapset
(path, location=None, mapset=None, *, create=False, overwrite=False, ensure=False)[source]¶ Checks that mapsets exists or creates it in a specified location
By default, it checks that the mapset exists and raises a ValueError otherwise. If create is True and the mapset does not exists, it creates it. If it exists and overwrite is True, it deletes the existing mapset (with all the data in it). If ensure is True, existing mapset is used as is and when there is none, a new mapset is created.
Where the mapset is specified by a full path or by location name and path to the directory where the location is.
The path argument is positional-only. Location and mapset are recommend to be used as positional.
