Installation
This package can be installed via pip from pypi.org. The minimum supported python version is 3.10.
You can install the gldas package and all required dependencies via
pip install gldasOptional dependencies
To read grib versions of GLDAS Noah, please install pygrib first:
pip install pygribOn windows it might be necessary to use conda:
conda install -c conda-forge pygribSupported Products
At the moment this package supports GLDAS Noah data version 1 in grib format (reading, time series creation) and GLDAS Noah data version 2.0 and version 2.1 in netCDF format (download, reading, time series creation) with a spatial sampling of 0.25 degrees. It should be easy to extend the package to support other GLDAS based products. This will be done as need arises.
Contribute
We are happy if you want to contribute. Please raise an issue explaining what is missing or if you find a bug. We will also gladly accept pull requests against our master branch for new features or bug fixes.
Development setup
For Development we also recommend a conda environment. You can create one including test dependencies and debugger by running conda create -n gldas python=3.12, then activate it and call pip install -e .[testing] to install the package and all required and test dependencies. Now everything should be in place to run tests and develop new features.
Guidelines
If you want to contribute please follow these steps:
Fork the gldas repository to your account
Clone the repository, make sure you use git clone --recursive to also get the test data repository.
make a new feature branch from the gldas master branch
Add your feature
Please include tests for your contributions in one of the test directories. We use py.test so a simple function called test_my_feature is enough
submit a pull request to our master branch
