A package to get access to KM3NeT sample files for testing and development
purposes.

Installation and usage
----------------------

    pip install km3net-testdata

The file paths can be access in Python scripts using the ``data_path()`` function:

.. code-block:: python

    from km3net_testdata import data_path()

    filename = data_path("km3net_offline.root")

Notice the underscore in the Python package name (PyPI forces ``-`` but Python
package names are not allowed to use ``-``).

To use the module in e.g. shell scripts, the module can be called directly and
print the filepath:

.. code-block:: shell

   $ python -m km3net_testdata km3net_offline.root
   /full/path/to/km3net_offline.root
