Append option for hsload #120

Closed jreadey closed 2 years ago

jreadey commented 2 years ago

Currently hsload will overwrite any existing domain in the target path. A useful feature would be an append flag (-a, or --append) that would keep the existing content but add any objects from the source file to the target domain (preserving previous objects).

Already implemented!

Append options have been enhanced. Basically there are three types of append modes in hsload -a: 1) Path of new object doesn't conflict with target file, new object will be added to target 2) A dataset path exists in both source and target but will be extended with the new data, additional dimension may be created 3) For datasets using dimension scales, the --extend can be used to extend the dimension along the indicated dimension

1) was supported previously. 2) and 3) are added in the 0.12.0 release.
