    Subclasses may define the following methods:

    map_{datasetType}(self, dataId, write)
        Map a dataset id for the given dataset type into a ButlerLocation.
        If write=True, this mapping is for an output dataset.

    query_{datasetType}(self, key, format, dataId)
        Return the possible values for the format fields that would produce
        datasets at the granularity of key in combination with the provided
        partial dataId.

    std_{datasetType}(self, item)
        Standardize an object of the given data set type.

    Methods that must be overridden:

    keys(self)
        Return a list of the keys that can be used in data ids.
