2022-01-03 PyAerocom meeting

[avaldebe]

Follow up from last meeting

Dec 6 #566, Dec 13 #567

New PRs

#540 Clean up entry points, sentinel scripts, should this be on PyPI? Need config file from ESA, Jan will check availability (opens new issue). Files are heavily nested in groups (4-5 levels deep) which xarray only supports if the group name is known (through e.g. netCDF4)

New Issues

None, but we need deadlines for the last ones from the different projects

typer CLI interface

Typer: https://typer.tiangolo.com/
CAMS2_83_reader: Almost no time spent on understanding the docs, easy to use and code, tested in "production" by Charlie
https://github.com/metno/pyaerocom/tree/cams2-83/pyaerocom/scripts/CAMS2_83

Iris stuff

Github activity is high, iris 3.2, proj issues, API incompatibilities might cause problems for us. Cartopy needs recent proj. On centos nodes use module load fou-kl/proj fou-kl/geos to try the newest versions of cartopy dependencies. Python3.10 is available on centos under module load fou-kl/python

For next meeting

• Alvaro will contact Michael S. and Michael G. ask for project deadlines
• Alvaro will start a new PR to get the CI tests working on Python 3.10
• Alvaro will host meeting to describe packaging, interest from Krister and Daniel and Charlie
