geetools.Asset.Asset

class geetools.Asset.Asset(*args)

An Asset management class mimicking the pathlib.Path class behaviour.

Initialize the Asset class.

Note

An asset cannot be an absolute path like in a normal filesystem and thus any trailing “/” will be removed.

property name

Return the asset name.

Examples

asset = ee.Asset("projects/ee-geetools/assets/folder/image")
asset.name

property owner

Return the asset owner (project name).

This method is only parsing the asset path and is not checking asset existence.

Examples

asset = ee.Asset("projects/ee-geetools/assets/folder/image")
asset.owner

property parent

Return the direct parent directory.

It can go further up than the root folder if the asset is not absolute.

Examples

asset = ee.Asset("projects/ee-geetools/assets/folder/image")
asset.parent

property parents

Return the parent directories from the root folder.

Examples

asset = ee.Asset("projects/ee-geetools/assets/folder/image")
asset.parents

property parts

Return the asset parts of the path.

We will show all the parts from the root to the asset name. Remember that projects/user/assets is not part of the asset name but is part of the path.

Examples

asset = ee.Asset("projects/ee-geetools/assets/folder/image")
asset.parts

property st_size

Return the byte size of the file.

Examples

asset = ee.Asset("projects/ee-geetools/assets/folder/image")
asset.st_size

property type: str

Return the asset type.

Examples

asset = ee.Asset("projects/ee-geetools/assets/folder/image")
asset.type

Return type:

str
