ASDF schemas for transforms
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, but typically as a transitive dependency. Install directly only if you are building ASDF-based tools or need explicit control over schema validation for transform tags. For most users, install an implementation package like asdf-astropy instead, which will pull this in automatically.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying

What it is and what it does
asdf-transform-schemas is a schema package that defines validation rules for transform tags within the ASDF (Advanced Scientific Data Format) file format. It does not provide user-facing APIs but instead serves as a dependency for ASDF implementation packages like asdf-astropy, which bundle it to enable proper validation of transform metadata in scientific data files.
The package is maintained as part of the ASDF ecosystem and is actively developed. It requires Python 3.9 or later and depends on asdf-standard. Most users should not install it directly; instead, they install implementation packages that include it as a transitive dependency. The package has low install friction and no known security vulnerabilities.
Use it for
- Validating ASDF files that contain transform tags when using asdf-astropy or other ASDF implementation packages.
- Ensuring transform metadata in scientific data files conforms to the ASDF standard schema.
- Supporting coordinate transformation workflows in astronomy and scientific computing via ASDF format compliance.

dill extends Python's pickle module to serialize and deserialize a much wider range of Python objects, including functions, lambdas, classes, and interpreter sessions, to byte streams for storage or network transmission.
Multiprocess is an enhanced fork of Python's standard multiprocessing library that uses dill for better serialization, allowing you to spawn processes with a threading-like API and share complex objects between them.
Install it if you use multiprocessing and encounter pickle serialization limits with lambdas or complex objects.
