zea datapaths

Summary

zea.datapaths resolves where your data lives, via users.yaml. It was on 45% coverage, and writing tests for it turned up a handful of bugs, all on the paths you only hit when setting up a new machine, which is where a new user starts. So this ended up being a cleanup of the whole module rather than just tests.

Test coverage

tests/test_user_settings.py becomes tests/test_datapaths.py to match the module, and now covers it fully — statements and branches. That's the last box but one in #42.

The bugs it surfaced: create_new_user() crashed instead of falling back to ./users.yaml as documented, the "no users.yaml found" recovery could never actually succeed, and a known user on a new machine got a second top-level YAML entry that silently shadowed their other machines.

Fewer warnings

Every call printed warnings about things that aren't problems. output is genuinely optional, so it no longer invents <data_root>/output when unset.

Paths are inherited

A section only has to say what it changes:

alice:
  data_root: /mnt/data/alice
  output: /mnt/data/alice/output
  laptop:
    system: darwin        # inherits both paths above

Previously the laptop section replaced its parent, so those paths were dropped and resolution fell back to the OS default. Same one level up: a user listed without their own data_root didn't inherit the shared one.

users.yaml has a spec

Like configs and data files, users.yaml is now validated against a schema (zea/internal/config/users.py), written in the same dataclass style as the config spec — so all three of our file formats have one. A typo like loacl: under data_root used to be ignored and silently fall back to a default; now it's reported, naming the file.

While comparing the two, data.local turned out to reject null even though set_data_paths supports it, and data.user was documented as "path overrides" when it actually holds the resolved paths. Both fixed.

Setup is a CLI subcommand

zea datapaths, alongside process / app / data / convert, instead of python -m zea.datapaths (which still works):

$ zea datapaths
zea: Setting up a profile for alice on laptop.
  ? Path to your data directory (Tab completes): ~/data
  ? Path for zea output (optional, Enter to skip, Tab completes):

    'alice':
      laptop:
        system: darwin
        data_root: /Users/alice/data

  ? Add this to ./users.yaml? (Y/n):
zea: Added your profile to ./users.yaml

Paths tab-complete, and it asks for the output too, so the optional field is reachable without hand-editing YAML. Prompts use zea's logger and colours rather than ad-hoc prints, and it no longer warns about the missing profile it's in the middle of creating. Run it again on a configured machine and it just prints what it resolved, showing not set for anything left out.

Trying it

$ mkdir -p /tmp/scratch/data && cd /tmp/scratch
$ zea datapaths
$ python -c "from zea import set_data_paths; print(set_data_paths())"

The last line should print the paths and nothing else — no warnings.

Note for reviewers

The inheritance change alters path resolution for existing users.yaml files. Every config that resolved before resolves identically; what changes is that configs which used to fall back to the OS default now find the paths they had configured. Schema validation is also strict: a stray scalar key anywhere in a users.yaml is now an error rather than ignored.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added the zea datapaths command for creating and inspecting data-path profiles.
    • Supports local, remote, relative, absolute, and Hugging Face dataset paths.
    • Added layered configuration for shared, user, and machine-specific settings.

  • Improvements

    • Enhanced validation for user configuration and data-loading settings.
    • Clarified local/remote path behavior in configuration and CLI documentation.
    • Expanded notebook examples for configuring and resolving data paths.

zea.datapaths had a few latent bugs that only showed up on paths that are
hard to reach from a test:

- `create_new_user()` crashed on `open(None)` instead of falling back to
  `./users.yaml` as its docstring promises. This also broke
  `setup(create_user=True)` with the default `user_config=None`.
- `_load_users_yaml` called `create_new_user()` without a path, so the
  "no users.yaml found" recovery always failed with "Could not create user
  profile" and never offered to create one. It now passes the requested
  file, and only prompts when stdin is a terminal, so CI, notebooks and
  scripts keep falling back to the defaults silently.
- `_warning_type_was_thrown` required *all* recorded warnings to be of the
  given type, contradicting its docstring. With more than one warning type
  in flight (the common case for a fresh users.yaml) every check returned
  False and no profile was ever offered.
- `UnknownHostnameWarning` was never raised, so the branch of
  `create_new_user` that adds a missing hostname was dead code and a known
  user on a new machine got a duplicate top-level entry appended instead.
  `set_data_paths` now distinguishes an unknown user from a known user on
  an unknown machine.
- The unknown-data_root warning indexed `DEFAULT_DATA_ROOT[system]`
  directly, raising KeyError on an OS without a default entry.
- The local/remote update branch assumed a user/hostname nested layout and
  raised KeyError for a userless, machineless users.yaml.
- `_to_write_yaml_file` checked for comments before checking the file
  exists, making its own existence check unreachable.
- `format_data_path` now accepts Path/HFPath input and documents its
  contract; `set_data_paths` is annotated as returning `Config`.

tests/test_user_settings.py is renamed to tests/test_datapaths.py to match
the module and extended from 5 to 77 tests, taking statement and branch
coverage of zea/datapaths.py from 46% to 100%.

The zea_local_data notebook gains a section on `format_data_path` and
relative dataset paths, documents the optional `output` key and the
precedence rules, and drops the stale "Could not create user profile"
warning from its recorded output.

claude added 2 commits August 18, 2026 09:17
Adds zea/internal/config/users.py: a UserProfileSpec in the same dataclass-Spec
style as the zea config schema (and the array Specs in zea.data.spec), plus a
validate_users_config() mirroring validate_config(). users.yaml is recursive —
the same system/data_root/output keys appear at the top level, under a username
and under a hostname — so the spec validates every other key as a nested
user/machine section with the same class.

Two differences from the config schema, both deliberate and documented:
- to_dict() does not fill in defaults. An absent data_root means "fall back to
  the level above", which set_data_paths distinguishes from an explicit null.
- ALLOW_EXTRA carries nested sections, so ConfigSpec.to_dict now expands specs
  stored as extra keys, and ConfigSpec.from_dict is typed with a TypeVar so a
  subclass gets its own type back.

set_data_paths validates whatever it is handed — dict or YAML file — before
resolving anything, naming the file in the error. Typos such as `loacl:` under
data_root were previously ignored, silently falling back to the OS default;
they are now reported. This makes the ad-hoc asserts in
_verify_user_config_and_get_paths redundant, so malformed users.yaml files now
raise ValueError rather than AssertionError.

Alignment fixes found while comparing the two:
- data.local was validated as a plain boolean, but set_data_paths documents and
  supports local=None (a data_root shared between local and remote), so a
  config could not express it. Now optional(boolean).
- The data.user description called it "user path overrides"; it actually holds
  the paths resolved from users.yaml, written by setup(). Reworded to say so
  and to warn against setting it by hand, since machine-specific absolute paths
  do not travel with a config. Config comments regenerated.

Review findings from the PR, both confirmed against the code first:
- A hostname section present but carrying no data_root was classified as an
  unknown *user*, so create_new_user appended a second top-level block for the
  same user; PyYAML keeps the last duplicate, shadowing their other machines.
  Classification now keys off username_found alone, and the hostname branch
  updates the existing entry in place.
- create_new_user re-read users.yaml through _try, which returns None on
  failure; confirming the prompt then wrote `null` over the whole file. It now
  reads before prompting and bails out with a warning, and _to_write_yaml_file
  refuses anything that is not a mapping.

Tests: 84 in test_datapaths.py and 16 new users-schema cases in
test_config_validation.py. zea/datapaths.py and zea/internal/config/users.py
are both at 100% statement and branch coverage.
NAS is in-house shorthand, not something a public library should assume its
readers use. Reworded the four places it appeared: the data.local parameter
description (which regenerates the comment in the six shipped configs), the
set_data_paths and create_new_user docstrings, and the parameter table in the
config docs. The local/remote wording already used everywhere else is the
general term.

326-364: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Merge parent sections before resolving hostname paths.

A hostname section replaces the username and root sections at Lines 328-333. If the hostname sets only system, set_data_paths discards a configured user-level or root-level data_root and output.

Merge the declared profile fields in root, username, then hostname precedence order. Use the merged section for path resolution. Keep username_found separate for warning classification. Add a test where the hostname sets only system and inherits data_root and output.

Comment thread zea/internal/config/users.py
A users.yaml section replaced its parent instead of overlaying it, so a section
that set only some keys silently lost the rest:

    alice:
      data_root: /mnt/data/alice
      output: /mnt/out/alice
      laptop:
        system: linux          # -> data_root and output both discarded

Resolution fell back to the OS default rather than alice's paths. The same
happened one level up: a user listed in users.yaml without their own data_root
did not inherit the shared, userless one, despite set_data_paths' docstring
saying user entries "take precedence over" it -- precedence implies a fallback,
not a replacement. It also contradicted the users.yaml schema docs, which say an
unset key means "fall back to the level above".

_resolve_profile now overlays root, username and hostname in that order, per
key, so a section only has to state what it changes. Every previously resolvable
config resolves identically; what changes is that configs which used to fall
back to the OS default (with a warning) now find the paths they had configured.
Since the resolved profile is a fresh dict holding only declared fields, the
unknown-key filtering in _verify_user_config_and_get_paths is gone, and the
caller's config is no longer mutated during resolution.

Also from review:

- create_new_user replaced the whole hostname mapping when filling in a missing
  data_root, dropping a sibling `output`. It now merges into what is there. This
  became reachable via the previous commit's warning fix, so it is a regression
  that commit introduced.
- The users.yaml schema docs claimed an explicit `null` was distinguished from an
  unset key; to_dict drops both. Preserving explicit nulls would mean carrying a
  value that overrides the inheritance above, which is not what a null means
  here, so the documentation is corrected rather than the behaviour.
- `local: null` needs *every* applicable path to be a plain string, not just
  data_root -- output counts too. Reworded in the parameter description (and the
  regenerated config comments), and the null case is now documented in the
  config reference table, which listed only true and false.

Tests: 88 in test_datapaths.py, covering inheritance from the user and shared
levels, per-key resolution, explicit nulls, and the preserved sibling key.
zea/datapaths.py and zea/internal/config/users.py remain at 100% statement and
branch coverage.

655-662: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Update the section that owns data_root.

_resolve_config_section() returns the deepest applicable section even when data_root was inherited. If the shared section contains data_root.local and a user section only contains output, adding data_root.remote here creates a user-level mapping with only remote. Later local resolution no longer inherits the shared local value and falls back.

Locate the section that supplied data_root, then merge the new location into that mapping. Add coverage for an inherited local path followed by an interactive remote update.

Resolve configured output during data_root fallback.

When data_root is absent but output is configured, this branch always returns <default_data_root>/output. This discards a valid root-, user-, or hostname-level output value and can write generated output to the wrong directory.

Resolve output with the selected fallback data_root. Add a test with a configured output and no configured data_root.

Proposed fix
-        data_root = default_data_root
-        output = _default_output_path(data_root)
+        fallback_profile = {**config, "data_root": default_data_root}

test covering configured output with no configured data_root, verifying the
configured output is returned.

Comment thread tests/test_datapaths.py Outdated

Three problems from review, each reproduced first.

A configured `output` was discarded whenever the `data_root` had to fall back to
the OS default. `{alice: {output: /mnt/out/alice}}` resolved output to
`/mnt/z/data/output` rather than `/mnt/out/alice`, so generated output landed
somewhere the user never asked for. Only the data_root is missing in that case,
so the profile is now resolved the usual way with the fallback root substituted,
which also means a local/remote `output` mapping is honoured there. A side
effect worth noting: a `system` key that does not match the machine now raises in
this branch too, where it was previously only checked when a data_root existed.

Updating an inherited data_root wrote to the wrong section. With a shared
`data_root: {local: ...}` and a user section holding only `output`,
create_new_user added `remote` to the *user* section, producing a
`{remote: ...}` mapping that overrides the shared one wholesale — so the `local`
path silently stopped resolving. `_resolve_config_section` takes an `owns`
argument and returns the section that actually supplies the key, so the new
location joins the existing mapping instead of shadowing it.

Both resolution helpers now share one `_config_levels` walk rather than
open-coding the root/username/hostname descent twice.

The tests hard-coded `system: linux` in three places, which fails on macOS and
Windows since set_data_paths asserts the configured system matches the machine.
They use `platform.system().lower()` now; verified by running the suite with
platform.system patched to Darwin. The remaining literal "linux" values are in
tests of _fallback_to_default_data_root and _build_user_profile_string, neither
of which compares against the running platform.

zea/datapaths.py and zea/internal/config/users.py stay at 100% statement and
branch coverage, 92 tests in test_datapaths.py.
Reported from real use: three warnings on every call, for things that are not
problems.

`output` is genuinely optional, so it no longer invents `<data_root>/output`
when unset -- which was a directory nobody had created, so it then warned that
it did not exist. It stays None instead, and nothing consumes it in the
codebase. Path checking is now limited to paths the users.yaml actually sets: an
unset field is a normal way to work, and a data_root we fell back to ourselves
was already announced by the warning that announced the fallback. Loading a
users.yaml whose configured path is missing still warns, which is the case worth
hearing about.

In practice this takes `set_data_paths()` with a data_root and no output from
two warnings to none, and a first run on a fresh machine from four messages to
one.

The interactive setup is now `zea datapaths`, alongside process/app/data/convert
rather than a `python -m` invocation. `python -m zea.datapaths` still works. It
also asks for the output path now, where Enter skips it, so the optional field
is reachable without hand-editing YAML. The prompts use zea's logger and colours
instead of ad-hoc prints and emoji, and the tool no longer warns about the
missing profile it is in the middle of creating -- it says what it is doing
instead. Re-running it on a configured machine just prints the resolved paths,
showing `not set` for anything left out.

Docs, the users.yaml notebook and the "no users.yaml found" message point at
`zea datapaths` now.

104 tests in test_datapaths.py, zea/datapaths.py back at 100% statement and
branch coverage.
Offering `/mnt/z/data` as the default for "where is your data" was a guess
nobody's machine is likely to match, and pressing Enter accepted it silently.
The data root is now required: an empty answer is asked again. There is no
default worth offering, since where the data lives is the one thing only the
person running the tool knows. DEFAULT_LINUX_DATA_ROOT was only used for that
prompt and is gone; DEFAULT_DATA_ROOT still holds the per-OS fallbacks used when
resolving.

Path prompts now tab-complete. readline does filename completion itself when no
completer function is installed, so `_path_completion` only binds Tab and puts
any previously installed completer back afterwards -- otherwise calling this
from a REPL would cost that REPL its own completion. macOS often links libedit,
which spells the binding differently, so both are handled, and platforms without
readline (Windows) fall through to a plain prompt. The hint only mentions Tab
where readline is actually importable.

Verified by driving the prompt through a pty: typing `./ultra` and Tab completes
to `./ultrasound_data/`.
Codecov flagged three uncovered lines from the new subcommand: DataPathsArgs.run
and the dispatch branch in __main__. Both are exercised now by a test that goes
through main(), which also pins the thing that is easy to regress -- setting up
data paths has no use for a compute device, so none is initialised.

Also sorts the datapaths test imports, which had drifted.
The notebook showed an example users.yaml with placeholder paths and then ran
against whatever the reader actually had, which on a fresh machine meant it
resolved to the OS default and printed two "path does not exist" warnings right
under the text telling you how to avoid exactly that.

It now writes a users.yaml pointing at a folder it creates next to the notebook,
so the rest of the run is quiet and a reader sees the real thing rather than a
warning about a path nobody made. An existing users.yaml is detected and used
untouched: someone with a real profile can run the notebook without it being
overwritten.

The example content no longer claims an omitted `output` falls back to
`data_root/output` -- it has not since output became optional; it is simply
unset.

Those files are part of what the notebook demonstrates, so they stay in the
notebook rather than moving into test-only setup. tests/test_notebooks.py grows
an autouse fixture that removes them afterwards, skipping anything that was
already there so a developer's own users.yaml survives a test run.

Verified: a clean run produces no data-path warnings at all, and a run with a
pre-existing users.yaml leaves it byte-identical, with no stray folder left
behind either way.

Update the field that raised UnknownLocalRemoteWarning.

_verify_user_config_and_get_paths() checks both data_root and output, and output supports local/remote mappings. If output lacks the selected mode, this branch still prompts for data_root and can replace a shared string data_root with a one-mode mapping. Carry the missing field through resolution, acquire its value, and update that field at its owning section.

Do not hide cleanup failures.

shutil.rmtree(..., ignore_errors=True) can leave zea-data in the checkout while the fixture reports success. Let cleanup failures surface, or verify that the path no longer exists after removal.

- an explicit `data_root: null` means inherit, so `_resolve_config_section`
  no longer treats the section spelling it out as the one owning the key
- `output` can be a local/remote mapping too; the warning now carries the field
  it was raised for, so the setup prompt fills in that field instead of always
  writing `data_root`, and a missing local/remote `output` is left unset rather
  than pointed at the default data root
- `_path_completion` hands back the completer delimiters as well as the completer
- refresh the local-data notebook outputs from a single clean run; the committed
  ones mixed two machines and showed warnings the notebook no longer produces
- let a failed notebook-artifact cleanup surface instead of being swallowed
