Discussion: how incremental addition/modification of elements and IO interact #186

Description

@LucaMarconato

This is to collect points to discuss in major redesign of how IO interacts with the capabilities of extending an object by adding/removing or modifying particular elements. In other words, we need to decide how the user can modify/extend a SpatialData object after its constructor is called, and how this relates with IO.

It evolves from previous discussions in this old issue #137 (and it's related PR #138).

I'll just dump all the points and reformat later on.

  • comments on add_image(), add_labels()
    • these functions are immediately writing to disk when called. We could decide removing these functions and let the user write to disk explicitly. But it would be cool to know what is to be written to disk, and what not.
    • the functions also check if the name of the image being added is already present in sdata.images or not, or if it is unique across all elements. This check is important, but currently it can be overridden by simply doing sdata.images['my_image'] = image. We should decide on one of the following:
      • we make .images private and we remove sdata.add_images('my_image', image). The user will not use sdata.images['my_image'] anymore, leaving only with the option to do sdata['my_image'] = image, which internally uses get_schema() to know what image is.
      • we replace .images with an accessor class for which we override __set_item__() and __get_item__(), and we make these __set_item__() call add_image() internally.

                              Discussion: how incremental addition/modification of elements and IO interact #186

                              Description

                              @LucaMarconato

                              This is to collect points to discuss in major redesign of how IO interacts with the capabilities of extending an object by adding/removing or modifying particular elements. In other words, we need to decide how the user can modify/extend a SpatialData object after its constructor is called, and how this relates with IO.

                              It evolves from previous discussions in this old issue #137 (and it's related PR #138).

                              I'll just dump all the points and reformat later on.
