Python 3 interface to encode and decode GRIB and BUFR files via the ECMWF ecCodes library.
Features:
reads and writes GRIB 1 and 2 files,
reads and writes BUFR 3 and 4 files,
supports all modern versions of Python 3.7, 3.6, 3.5 and PyPy3,
works on most Linux distributions and MacOS, the ecCodes C-library is the only system dependency,
PyPI package can be installed without compiling, at the cost of being twice as slow as the original ecCodes module,
an optional compile step makes the code as fast as the original module but it needs a recent version of ecCodes >= 2.15.0.
Limitations:
Microsoft Windows support is untested.
Installation
The package is installed from PyPI with:
$ pip install eccodes-python
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 v2.15.0. Your system is ready.
Usage
Refer to the ecCodes documentation pages for usage.
Experimental features
Fast bindings
To test the much faster CFFI API level, out-of-line mode you need the ecCodes header files. Then you need to clone the repo in the same folder as your ecCodes source tree, make a pip development install and custom compile the binary bindings:
$ git clone https://github.com/ecmwf/eccodes-python $ cd eccodes-python $ pip install -e . $ python builder.py
To revert back to ABI level, in-line more just remove the compiled bindings:
$ rm gribapi/_bindings.*
