How to download a ms-building id stac?

[aborruso]

Hi,
first of all thank you for this project.

As I have writter here, I would like to download a ms-building id stack.
And I have tried to do it running:

stac-client search https://planetarycomputer.microsoft.com/api/stac/v1 -c ms-buildings --bbox 46.40 24.52 47.110 25.165 --max-items 1 | stac-asset download

But I have this error:

stac_asset.errors.DownloadError: error when downloading asset 'data' with href 'abfs://footprints/delta/2023-04-25/ml-buildings.parquet/RegionName=KingdomofSaudiArabia/quadkey=123022211': cannot read a file with the filesystem client if it has a url scheme: abfs://footprints/delta/2023-04-25/ml-buildings.parquet/RegionName=KingdomofSaudiArabia/quadkey=123022211

Is there a way to download it?

It looks like the abfs:// scheme is not supported yet. As shown here, the PlanetaryComputerClient is a subclass of HttpClient and can therefore only download assets with http-based HREFs.

Correction: stac-asset tries to use the FilesystemClient because it is the default choice if the href does not match the options listed here. What I said above is still true for the PlanetaryComputerClient, but it's not actually getting used here.

Yup, thanks for the report. There's (at least) two things going on here:

• We should error when we encounter unexpected protocols, instead of naïvely using HttpClient
• We should add support for abfs protocols, following some of the document hints from https://planetarycomputer.microsoft.com/docs/quickstarts/stac-geoparquet/ (e.g. table:storage_options)
