which requires HDF5 and
netcdf-4 are
installed, and that the nc-config utility is in your PATH. This
can be install with
sudo apt-get install libhdf5-serial-dev netcdf-bin libnetcdf-dev
in ubuntu
Install
pip install boutdata
or in a Conda environment:
conda install -c conda-forge boutdata
Examples
Reading data from dump files:
from boutdata import collect
ni = collect("Ni")
When boutdata is installed as a package (e.g. with pip or conda), a command-line program is provided as an interface to squashoutput:
$ bout-squashoutput
bout-squashoutput provides tab-completion of arguments if argcomplete is installed and activated (see https://kislyuk.github.io/argcomplete/).
