DDSAPI-Client

Python Client to access and download data from CMCC Data Delivery System (DDS)

Requirements

Python 3.11 or greater is required

Installation

The base client is lightweight (HTTP only). The libraries needed to open the retrieved datasets (xarray, zarr, netCDF4, …) are optional — install them only if you need to work with the downloaded data.

conda

From the cmcc-dds channel:

$ conda install -c cmcc-dds ddsapi

To also open the downloaded datasets, add the data stack (from conda-forge):

$ conda install -c conda-forge xarray zarr netcdf4 h5netcdf dask cf-xarray

pip

$ pip install ddsapi

To also open the downloaded datasets, install the optional data extra:

$ pip install 'ddsapi[data]'

Configuration

To use the tool a file $HOME/.ddsapirc must be created as following

url: https://ddshub.cmcc.it/api/v2
key: <api-key>
