ANN: First public release of cfgrib a GRIB driver for xarray based on ecCodes

Show all headers | View raw

On behalf of ECMWF I'm pleased to announce the first public release of
`cfgrib`, a Python interface to map GRIB files to the NetCDF Common Data
Model following the CF Conventions using ECMWF ecCodes for decoding.
Included in the package is a GRIB driver for xarray.

    https://pypi.org/project/cfgrib/0.8.4

Please note that the development stage of this project is **Alpha**.

Features:

- provisional GRIB driver for xarray,
- support all modern versions of Python 3.7, 3.6, 3.5 and 2.7, plus PyPy
and PyPy3,
- read the data lazily and efficiently in terms of both memory usage and
disk access,
- map a GRIB 1 or 2 file to a set of N-dimensional variables following the
NetCDF Common Data Model,
- add CF Conventions attributes to known coordinate and data variables,
- no write support (yet).

The main repository is hosted on GitHub, testing, bug report and
contributions are highly welcomed and appreciated. Every little help
counts, so do not hesitate!

Cheers,
