spell out kwargs, we try to get rid of this way of hiding them so we should not introduce more of these.

hmm, ok. That's a lot of duplicated text, which I don't love, but fine

yes, but if it's public API, one would need useful docstrings, too. dumping kwarg out there is not exactly useful. OTOH, if it's an option of not getting slightly overlapping public API then certainly I would be in favour of not duplicating.

get_image_list is more of an internal-pointing method. It is technically usable, and useful, to users, but get_image_table is more useful and I prefer to point people there. I'd actually lean toward making _get_image_list private before duplicating its docstring and keyword arguments. Let me know which you prefer

is this really necessary?
Also, try to avoid overwriting variables to help future debugging, the second response could be response_row, or whatever makes sense.

no, this was for debugging, I'll remove it

the _last_response addition has historically been very useful in debugging other tools, so I prefer to keep it, but I agree about the variable renaming

yeap, keeping _last_response is fine, I really just meant to spot _penultimate_response ;) and the rename.

fair enough, I could drop that. But when else do you get to use penultimate in the real world?!

I think I commented this before in another module: I think methods like this should not be class methods, definitely not public ones, but instead private functions.

yeah, I agree - happy to make this, and get_image_list, both private

you can't make get_image_list private, at least not without a deprecation period.

The last failure I see here is in cadc, not wfau - is this real? |
Opened #2811 for it. It looks consistent in CI, but I cannot yet reproduce it locally. |
This refactor also adds a new method to retrieve the very useful metadata tables rather than just scrape them for download URLs.
