irods_netcdf

API plugins, microservices, and commands for accessing NetCDF data/metadata contained in iRODS data objects.

Building the NetCDF Plugin

Dependencies for building and running the plugin are as follows:

• irods-externals-cmake
• irods-externals-clang
• irods-externals-clang-runtime
• irods-externals-boost

Also make sure the development packages for OpenSSL, NetCDF, and HDF5, as well as iRODS itself, are installed on the build machine.

After cloning the irods_netcdf repository locally, perform these steps to build:

mkdir build ; cd build
cmake /path/to/netcdf_repository
make -j package

This will produce the following package files (in .rpm or .deb format):

1. irods-netcdf-server_modules
2. irods-netcdf-client_modules
3. irods-netcdf-icommands

Note:

Dependencies are set such that both the server_modules and icommands packages depend on client_modules. The remaining prerequisites, ie. the openssl and netcdf libraries, can be installed via yum or apt-get via the default repositories.

Installing from the Package Repository

The NetCDF plugin may be installed using the OS distribution's dependency-aware package tool:

{apt|yum|dnf} install irods-netcdf-*
