nc-convert

Convert netCDF files to other formats

Usage

pip install "ncconvert[cli]"
ncconvert to_csv data/*.nc --output-dir output_data/ --verbose

Formats other than csv are also supported. To see more information about supported formats, run

ncconvert --help

A python API is also available for each format, e.g.:

import xarray as xr
from ncconvert import to_csv

ds = xr.open_dataset("netcdf-file.nc")

to_csv(ds, "output_folder/filename.csv")

Developing

Create a python environment using at least python 3.8, then install the requirements:

pip install ".[dev,cli]"

Run make coverage to generate a report of test coverage.

Releasing the package is as simple as creating a tagged release in GitHub. Make sure to create a new tag using vX.Y.Z format, where X is the major version, Y is the minor version, and Z is the micro version. Set the release title to X.Y.Z.
