`numpy.lib._datasource:Repository.exists`

source: build-install/usr/lib/python3.14/site-packages/numpy/lib/_datasource.py :616

Signature

def exists ( self , path )

Summary

Test if path exists prepending Repository base URL to path.

Extended Summary

Test if path exists as (and in this order):

a local file.
a remote URL that has been downloaded and stored locally in the DataSource directory.
a remote URL that has not been downloaded, but is valid and accessible.

Parameters

path : str or pathlib.Path: Can be a local file or a remote URL. This may, but does not have to, include the baseurl with which the Repository was initialized.

Returns

out : bool: True if path exists.

Notes

When path is an URL, exists will return True if it's either stored locally in the DataSource directory, or is a valid remote URL. DataSource does not discriminate between the two, the file is accessible if it exists in either location.
