def interpret_bit_flags(bit_flags, flip_bits=None, flag_name_map=None):
    """
    Converts input bit flags to a single integer value (bit mask) or `None`.

    When input is a list of flags (either a Python list of integer flags or a
    string of comma-, ``'|'``-, or ``'+'``-separated list of flags),
    the returned bit mask is obtained by summing input flags.

    .. note::
        In order to flip the bits of the returned bit mask,
        for input of `str` type, prepend '~' to the input string. '~' must
        be prepended to the *entire string* and not to each bit flag! For
        input that is already a bit mask or a Python list of bit flags, set
        ``flip_bits`` for `True` in order to flip the bits of the returned
        bit mask.

    Parameters
    ----------
    bit_flags : int, str, list, None
        An integer bit mask or flag, `None`, a string of comma-, ``'|'``- or
        ``'+'``-separated list of integer bit flags or mnemonic flag names,
        or a Python list of integer bit flags. If ``bit_flags`` is a `str`
        and if it is prepended with '~', then the output bit mask will have
        its bits flipped (compared to simple sum of input flags).
        For input ``bit_flags`` that is already a bit mask or a Python list
        of bit flags, bit-flipping can be controlled through ``flip_bits``
        parameter.

        .. note::
            When ``bit_flags`` is a list of flag names, the ``flag_name_map``
            parameter must be provided.

        .. note::
            Only one flag separator is supported at a time. ``bit_flags``
            string should not mix ``','``, ``'+'``, and ``'|'`` separators.

    flip_bits : bool, None
        Indicates whether or not to flip the bits of the returned bit mask
        obtained from input bit flags. This parameter must be set to `None`
        when input ``bit_flags`` is either `None` or a Python list of flags.

    flag_name_map : BitFlagNameMap
         A `BitFlagNameMap` object that provides mapping from mnemonic
         bit flag names to integer bit values in order to translate mnemonic
         flags to numeric values when ``bit_flags`` that are comma- or
         '+'-separated list of menmonic bit flag names.

    Returns
    -------
    bitmask : int or None
        Returns an integer bit mask formed from the input bit value or `None`
        if input ``bit_flags`` parameter is `None` or an empty string.
        If input string value was prepended with '~' (or ``flip_bits`` was set
        to `True`), then returned value will have its bits flipped
        (inverse mask).

    Converts an array of bit fields to a boolean (or integer) mask array
    according to a bit mask constructed from the supplied bit flags (see
    ``ignore_flags`` parameter).

    This function is particularly useful to convert data quality arrays to
    boolean masks with selective filtering of DQ flags.

    Parameters
    ----------
    bitfield : ndarray
        An array of bit flags. By default, values different from zero are
        interpreted as "bad" values and values equal to zero are considered
        as "good" values. However, see ``ignore_flags`` parameter on how to
        selectively ignore some bits in the ``bitfield`` array data.

    ignore_flags : int, str, list, None (default = 0)
        An integer bit mask, `None`, a Python list of bit flags, a comma-,
        or ``'|'``-separated, ``'+'``-separated string list of integer
        bit flags or mnemonic flag names that indicate what bits in the input
        ``bitfield`` should be *ignored* (i.e., zeroed), or `None`.

        .. note::
            When ``bit_flags`` is a list of flag names, the ``flag_name_map``
            parameter must be provided.

        | Setting ``ignore_flags`` to `None` effectively will make
          `bitfield_to_boolean_mask` interpret all ``bitfield`` elements
          as "good" regardless of their value.

        | When ``ignore_flags`` argument is an integer bit mask, it will be
          combined using bitwise-NOT and bitwise-AND with each element of the
          input ``bitfield`` array (``~ignore_flags & bitfield``). If the
          resultant bitfield element is non-zero, that element will be
          interpreted as a "bad" in the output boolean mask and it will be
          interpreted as "good" otherwise. ``flip_bits`` parameter may be used
          to flip the bits (``bitwise-NOT``) of the bit mask thus effectively
          changing the meaning of the ``ignore_flags`` parameter from "ignore"
          to "use only" these flags.

        .. note::

            Setting ``ignore_flags`` to 0 effectively will assume that all
            non-zero elements in the input ``bitfield`` array are to be
            interpreted as "bad".

        | When ``ignore_flags`` argument is a Python list of integer bit
          flags, these flags are added together to create an integer bit mask.
          Each item in the list must be a flag, i.e., an integer that is an
          integer power of 2. In order to flip the bits of the resultant
          bit mask, use ``flip_bits`` parameter.

        | Alternatively, ``ignore_flags`` may be a string of comma- or
          ``'+'``(or ``'|'``)-separated list of integer bit flags that should
          be added (bitwise OR) together to create an integer bit mask.
          For example, both ``'4,8'``, ``'4|8'``, and ``'4+8'`` are equivalent
          and indicate that bit flags 4 and 8 in the input ``bitfield``
          array should be ignored when generating boolean mask.

        .. note::

            ``'None'``, ``'INDEF'``, and empty (or all white space) strings
            are special values of string ``ignore_flags`` that are
            interpreted as `None`.

        .. note::

            Each item in the list must be a flag, i.e., an integer that is an
            integer power of 2. In addition, for convenience, an arbitrary
            **single** integer is allowed and it will be interpreted as an
            integer bit mask. For example, instead of ``'4,8'`` one could
            simply provide string ``'12'``.

        .. note::
            Only one flag separator is supported at a time. ``ignore_flags``
            string should not mix ``','``, ``'+'``, and ``'|'`` separators.

        .. note::

            When ``ignore_flags`` is a `str` and when it is prepended with
            '~', then the meaning of ``ignore_flags`` parameters will be
            reversed: now it will be interpreted as a list of bit flags to be
            *used* (or *not ignored*) when deciding which elements of the
            input ``bitfield`` array are "bad". Following this convention,
            an ``ignore_flags`` string value of ``'~0'`` would be equivalent
            to setting ``ignore_flags=None``.

        .. warning::

            Because prepending '~' to a string ``ignore_flags`` is equivalent
            to setting ``flip_bits`` to `True`, ``flip_bits`` cannot be used
            with string ``ignore_flags`` and it must be set to `None`.

    flip_bits : bool, None (default = None)
        Specifies whether or not to invert the bits of the bit mask either
        supplied directly through ``ignore_flags`` parameter or built from the
        bit flags passed through ``ignore_flags`` (only when bit flags are
        passed as Python lists of integer bit flags). Occasionally, it may be
        useful to *consider only specific bit flags* in the ``bitfield``
        array when creating a boolean mask as opposed to *ignoring* specific
        bit flags as ``ignore_flags`` behaves by default. This can be achieved
        by inverting/flipping the bits of the bit mask created from
        ``ignore_flags`` flags which effectively changes the meaning of the
        ``ignore_flags`` parameter from "ignore" to "use only" these flags.
        Setting ``flip_bits`` to `None` means that no bit flipping will be
        performed. Bit flipping for string lists of bit flags must be
        specified by prepending '~' to string bit flag lists
        (see documentation for ``ignore_flags`` for more details).

        .. warning::
            This parameter can be set to either `True` or `False` **ONLY** when
            ``ignore_flags`` is either an integer bit mask or a Python
            list of integer bit flags. When ``ignore_flags`` is either
            `None` or a string list of flags, ``flip_bits`` **MUST** be set
            to `None`.

    good_mask_value : int, bool (default = False)
        This parameter is used to derive the values that will be assigned to
        the elements in the output boolean mask array that correspond to the
        "good" bit fields (that are 0 after zeroing bits specified by
        ``ignore_flags``) in the input ``bitfield`` array. When
        ``good_mask_value`` is non-zero or ``numpy.True_`` then values in the
        output boolean mask array corresponding to "good" bit fields in
        ``bitfield`` will be ``numpy.True_`` (if ``dtype`` is ``numpy.bool_``)
        or 1 (if ``dtype`` is of numerical type) and values of corresponding
        to "bad" flags will be ``numpy.False_`` (or 0). When
        ``good_mask_value`` is zero or ``numpy.False_`` then the values
        in the output boolean mask array corresponding to "good" bit fields
        in ``bitfield`` will be ``numpy.False_`` (if ``dtype`` is
        ``numpy.bool_``) or 0 (if ``dtype`` is of numerical type) and values
        of corresponding to "bad" flags will be ``numpy.True_`` (or 1).

    dtype : data-type (default = ``numpy.bool_``)
        The desired data-type for the output binary mask array.

    flag_name_map : BitFlagNameMap
         A `BitFlagNameMap` object that provides mapping from mnemonic
         bit flag names to integer bit values in order to translate mnemonic
         flags to numeric values when ``bit_flags`` that are comma- or
         '+'-separated list of menmonic bit flag names.

    Returns
    -------
    mask : ndarray
        Returns an array of the same dimensionality as the input ``bitfield``
        array whose elements can have two possible values,
        e.g., ``numpy.True_`` or ``numpy.False_`` (or 1 or 0 for integer
        ``dtype``) according to values of to the input ``bitfield`` elements,
        ``ignore_flags`` parameter, and the ``good_mask_value`` parameter.
