Make a catalog of matches from a sequence of matches.
The catalog contains three fields:
- first: the ID of the first source record in each match
- second: the ID of the second source record in each match
- distance: the distance of each match
Parameters
----------
matches :
Sequence of matches, typically of type SimpleMatch,
ReferenceMatch or SourceMatch. Each element must support:
`.first.getId()`->int, `.second.getId()->int` and
`.distance->float`.
Returns
-------
result :
The catalog of matches.
Notes
-----
This pure python implementation exists as a historical artifact
related to SWIG limitations. It might be practical to wrap the
overloaded C++ functions with pybind11, but there didn't seem much
point.
