Ensure that all datasets referenced by a values list exist — h5_ensure_datasets_from

Creates missing groups and datasets for all names(values). Datasets are created with dtype/dims inferred from the corresponding value. No values are written here.

Usage

h5_ensure_datasets_from_values(
  h5,
  values,
  ts_cols = c("time", "value"),
  ts_layout = c("2xN", "Nx2"),
  ts_dtype = "double",
  strict = TRUE
)

Arguments

h5: Open hdf5r::H5File (mode "a" or "r+").
values: Named list; names are dataset paths (leading // allowed).
ts_cols: Character(2). Column names for TS (default time/value).
ts_layout: One of "2xN" or "Nx2". For RAINDROP typically "2xN" in HDF5.
ts_dtype: Either an H5T object or a string ("double","integer","logical","float").
strict: Stop if creation fails.

Value

Invisibly, the character vector of created dataset paths.
