eccodes 1.0.0

System dependencies

The Python module depends on the ECMWF ecCodes library that must be installed on the system and accessible as a shared library.

On a MacOS with HomeBrew use:

$ brew install eccodes

Or if you manage binary packages with Conda use:

$ conda install -c conda-forge eccodes

As an alternative you may install the official source distribution by following the instructions at https://software.ecmwf.int/wiki/display/ECC/ecCodes+installation

You may run a simple selfcheck command to ensure that your system is set up correctly:

$ python -m eccodes selfcheck
Found: ecCodes v2.19.0.
Your system is ready.

Usage

Refer to the ecCodes documentation pages for usage.
