registering zarr files

Open gdkrmr opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

I want to register Zarr files. The issue is that Zarr files are not files but directories that contain certain JSON. Is it possible to to this in FileIO.jl? https://github.com/JuliaDataCubes/YAXArrays.jl/issues/131

I don't think FileIO supports directory because it internally uses open(...) do io here and there. Do we have a well-defined read behavior for a directory, I'm not sure?

Perhaps a good approach is to add Zarr driver in DataSets.jl
