Development

Setting up a development space

conda create --name nwpdl-dev python=3.9
conda activate nwpdl-dev
conda install numpy xarray pandas
conda install pytest
conda install -c conda-forge pyresample
conda install -c conda-forge netCDF4
conda deactivate nwpdl-dev
conda activate nwpdl-dev

To run the tests, simply run pytest in the base directory.

Development Mode

You can use development mode to make the current version of the code available to other packages. To proceed, enter the virtual environment of whatever program you're working on, navigate to the ./nwp_dl_utils root directory, remove the existing installation of nwp-dl-utils (if it exists), and install it in development mode, viz.

pip uninstall nwp-dl-utils
pip install --editable .

When done, remove, and reinstall the version from PyPI, viz.

pip uninstall nwl-dl-utils
pip install --ugrade nwp-dl-utils

This needs pip>=21.3, see here and here. You can upgrade Pip via pip install --upgrade pip.

Build and Distribute

Setup environment

conda create --name nwpdl-build python=3.9
conda activate nwpdl-build
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install --upgrade build
pip install --upgrade twine

Build and upload

python -m build
python -m twine upload --repository testpypi dist/* 

Drop --repository testpypi to upload to real PyPI.

Test build

conda create --name nwpdl-test python=3.9
conda activate nwpdl-test
pip install --index-url https://test.pypi.org/simple/ --no-deps nwp-dl-utils
