Collections
Collections support is unstable and may change
This is an experimental feature and that the API may likely change until the feature stabilizes.
Not every data set stands on its own. Maybe you want to document a set of data products as a collection.
Collections allow you to define a new types of applications, analysis, visualization, and interaction modes. These collections behave like single data products do normally, but also have their own unique properties and namespace.
Handling collections is the fundamental goal of the Workbench project. We want to enable comparison, ensemble, and uncertainty analysis and visualization.
Using Collections
Step 1: Tell Workbench to read in your collection
Add the following to the info.json
file in the directory containing the collection:
"collection": "true"
Step 2: Add new Workbench collection content to your applications
More on this in the near future.
