Unable to save object arrays #691

Description

Issue

I am unable to save variable length arrays to disk. I also cannot save JSON or Pickle object arrays to disk. Simple examples are given below.

Sorry if I missed something obvious in the documents. I cannot find an example of object arrays being saved to disk, so this could be entirely a syntax issue. Thanks for your time.

Example 1:

z = zarr.empty(4, dtype=object, object_codec=numcodecs.VLenArray(int))
print(z)
print(z.filters)
z[0] = np.array([1, 3, 5])
z[1] = np.array([4])
z[2] = np.array([7, 9, 14])
zarr.save("test1.zarr",z)

Example 2:

z = zarr.empty(5, dtype=object, object_codec=numcodecs.JSON())
print(z)
print(z.filters)
z[0] = 42
z[1] = 'foo'
z[2] = ['bar', 'baz', 'qux']
z[3] = {'a': 1, 'b': 2.2}
zarr.save("test2.zarr",z)

Problem description

Saving object arrays (as defined in the tutorial) results in the "ValueError: missing object_codec for object array" error.

The error occurs in the following line:

~/miniconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/zarr/storage.py in _init_array_metadata(store, shape, chunks, dtype, compressor, fill_value, order, overwrite, path, chunk_store, filters, object_codec)
386 if not filters:
387 # there are no filters so we can be sure there is no object codec
--> 388 raise ValueError('missing object_codec for object array')
389 else:
390 # one of the filters may be an object codec, issue a warning rather

As far as I can tell, the filters and codecs are defined in both cases.
Is it possible to save the arrays defined above to disk?

Version and installation information

zarr.version: 2.4.0
numcodecs.version:0.7.2
python version : Python 3.8.5
OS: linux
both pip and conda installations were tested

                      Unable to save object arrays #691

                      Issue

                      I am unable to save variable length arrays to disk. I also cannot save JSON or Pickle object arrays to disk. Simple examples are given below.

                      Sorry if I missed something obvious in the documents. I cannot find an example of object arrays being saved to disk, so this could be entirely a syntax issue. Thanks for your time.

                      Example 1:

                      z = zarr.empty(4, dtype=object, object_codec=numcodecs.VLenArray(int))
                      print(z)
                      print(z.filters)
                      z[0] = np.array([1, 3, 5])
                      z[1] = np.array([4])
                      z[2] = np.array([7, 9, 14])
                      zarr.save("test1.zarr",z)
                      

                      Example 2:

                      z = zarr.empty(5, dtype=object, object_codec=numcodecs.JSON())
                      print(z)
                      print(z.filters)
                      z[0] = 42
                      z[1] = 'foo'
                      z[2] = ['bar', 'baz', 'qux']
                      z[3] = {'a': 1, 'b': 2.2}
                      zarr.save("test2.zarr",z)
                      

                      Problem description

                      Saving object arrays (as defined in the tutorial) results in the "ValueError: missing object_codec for object array" error.

                      The error occurs in the following line:

                      ~/miniconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/zarr/storage.py in _init_array_metadata(store, shape, chunks, dtype, compressor, fill_value, order, overwrite, path, chunk_store, filters, object_codec)
                      386 if not filters:
                      387 # there are no filters so we can be sure there is no object codec
                      --> 388 raise ValueError('missing object_codec for object array')

                      390 # one of the filters may be an object codec, issue a warning rather
                      

                      As far as I can tell, the filters and codecs are defined in both cases.
                      Is it possible to save the arrays defined above to disk?
