load(group_id, read_only=True)[source]

Load an HDF5 group from an HDF5 file.

Note that users can access the HDF5 file object to which the HDF5 group of interest belongs via group.file, where group is the HDF5 group of interest. To close the HDF5 file, users can run the command group.file.close(), however by doing so, any other HDF5 objects belonging to that file will become unusable.

Parameters:

read_onlybool, optional

If read_only is set to True, then the HDF5 group of interest cannot be modified after loading it. Otherwise, if read_only is set to False, then the HDF5 group of interest can be modified after loading it.

Returns:
grouph5py.Group

The HDF5 group of interest.
