_metadata
Description
The _metadata.py file defines the structures and logic for handling metadata associated with cached items in the omnipath-metabo package. It provides classes and helper functions to manage, store, and retrieve metadata fields, ensuring that each cache entry can be enriched with flexible, structured, and queryable information. This enables advanced search, filtering, and organization of cached data based on user-defined or system-generated metadata.
Main Components
