Engine.ephemeral

creates an in-memory engine backed by a temp workspace

Python
Engine.ephemeral() -> Engine

Returns Engine — an in-memory engine backed by a temp workspace

Example#

Python
from lsdtools import Engine

engine = Engine.ephemeral()
engine.run(pipeline).raise_on_error()

Notes#

Nothing is persisted — the workspace is a throwaway temp directory, so this is the explicit, readable form for tests and one-off scripts. Equivalent to Engine() with no workspace argument. Call save(path) if you later want to keep the work.
