read hdf5 file over http stream

[chaoqun]

hey,

I have many hdf5 files, and put them behind a web server for remote access. ever hdf5 file like this:

http://xxxx.com/xx/foobar.hdf5

is there any pythonic way to read the hdf5 file over http stream? an ugly way is like this: use python http client to get the file, put the file on the disk, use h5py read local file.

thanks

You could expose the file with an OPeNDAP service.  I think http(s) in itself will only allow you to use your ‘ugly’ method as the file is not read sequentially.
