[docs]class UnifiedReadWrite: """Base class for the worker object used in unified read() or write() methods. This lightweight object is created for each `read()` or `write()` call via ``read`` / ``write`` descriptors on the data object class. The key driver is to allow complete format-specific documentation of available method options via a ``help()`` method, e.g. ``Table.read.help('fits')``. Subclasses must define a ``__call__`` method which is what actually gets called when the data object ``read()`` or ``write()`` method is called. For the canonical example see the `~astropy.table.Table` class implementation (in particular the ``connect.py`` module there). Parameters ---------- instance : object Descriptor calling instance or None if no instance cls : type Descriptor calling class (either owner class or instance class) method_name : str Method name, e.g. 'read' or 'write' registry : ``_UnifiedIORegistryBase`` or None, optional The IO registry.

[docs]class UnifiedReadWriteMethod(property): """Descriptor class for creating read() and write() methods in unified I/O. The canonical example is in the ``Table`` class, where the ``connect.py`` module creates subclasses of the ``UnifiedReadWrite`` class. These have custom ``__call__`` methods that do the setup work related to calling the registry read() or write() functions.
