An implementation of pystac's StacIO for reading static STACs stored in Azure Blob Storage. See the pystac docs for more info.

Either:

• pip install az-blob-stacio
• uv add az-blob-stacio

Set the global default StacIO to BlobStacIO:

import os

from az_blob_stacio import BlobStacIO

BlobStacIO.conn_str = os.environ["AZURE_STORAGE_CONNECTION_STRING"]

pystac.StacIO.set_default(BlobStacIO)

catalog = pystac.Catalog.from_file("https://myaccount.blob.core.windows.net/mycontainer/catalog.json")

Or use a context manager to temporarily set BlobStacIO as the default StacIO and reset to DefaultStacIO upon exiting the context:

import os

from az_blob_stacio import BlobStacIO, custom_stacio

BlobStacIO.conn_str = os.environ["AZURE_STORAGE_CONNECTION_STRING"]

with custom_stacio(BlobStacIO):
    catalog = pystac.Catalog.from_file("https://myaccount.blob.core.windows.net/mycontainer/catalog.json")

Overwrite behavior is configurable by setting BlobStacIO.overwrite (defaults to True).

Azure Blob Storage credentials can be provided by setting either of the following class variables:

• BlobStacIO.conn_str: a connection string for the Azure storage account. Checks for AZURE_STORAGE_CONNECTION_STRING in your environment by default.

• BlobStacIO.credential: a credential that provides access to the storage account hosting the static STAC.

  from azure.core.credentials import AzureSasCredential
  
  BlobStacIO.credential = AzureSasCredential("my-sas-token")
