Allow generating variables wanted from a list of h5 paths #504
Description
I'm trying to subset ATL03 granules for a list of variables that I have as a list of H5 paths
['gt1l/heights/delta_time',
'gt1l/heights/dist_ph_across',
'gt1l/heights/dist_ph_along',
'gt1l/heights/h_ph',
'gt1l/heights/lat_ph',
'gt1l/heights/lon_ph',
'gt1l/heights/pce_mframe_cnt',
'gt1l/heights/ph_id_channel',
'gt1l/heights/ph_id_pulse',
'gt1l/heights/quality_ph',
'gt1l/heights/signal_conf_ph',
'gt1l/geolocation/delta_time',
'gt1l/geolocation/ph_index_beg',
'gt1l/geolocation/podppd_flag',
'gt1l/geolocation/segment_dist_x',
'gt1l/geolocation/segment_id',
'gt1l/geolocation/segment_length',
'gt1l/geolocation/segment_ph_cnt',
'gt1l/geolocation/sigma_across',
'gt1l/geolocation/sigma_along',
'gt1l/geolocation/sigma_h',
'gt1l/geolocation/surf_type',
'gt1l/geolocation/velocity_sc']
However, I can not find an option in Query.order_vars.append to do this. I would expect to be able to do something like;
region_a.order_vars.append(var_list=['gt1l/heights/delta_time', 'gt1l/heights/dist_ph_across', 'gt1l/heights/dist_ph_along',...])
Am I missing something?
I've tried
region_a.order_vars.append(region_a.order_vars.parse_var_list(variable_list))
But this creates a long list of variables that I did not specify.
