Signature

   def     open (    self    ,    path    ,    mode    =  r   ,    encoding    =  None   ,    newline    =  None     )

Open and return file-like object prepending Repository base URL.

If path is an URL, it will be downloaded, stored in the DataSource directory and opened from there.

path : str or pathlib.Path: Local file path or URL to open. This may, but does not have to, include the baseurl with which the Repository was initialized.
mode : {'r', 'w', 'a'}, optional: Mode to open path. Mode 'r' for reading, 'w' for writing, 'a' to append. Available modes depend on the type of object specified by path. Default is 'r'.
encoding : {None, str}, optional: Open text file with given encoding. The default encoding will be what open uses.
newline : {None, str}, optional: Newline to use when reading text file.
