Installing the xcube-cci plugin

Installation into a new environment with conda

xcube-cci and all necessary dependencies (including xcube itself) are available on conda-forge, and can be installed using the conda package manager. The conda package manager itself can be obtained in the miniconda distribution. Once conda is installed, xcube-cci can be installed like this:

$ conda create --name xcube-cci-environment --channel conda-forge xcube-cci
$ conda activate xcube-cci-environment

The name of the environment may be freely chosen.

Installation into an existing environment with conda

xcube-cci can also be installed into an existing conda environment. With an existing conda environment activated, execute this command:

$ conda install --channel conda-forge xcube-cci

xcube and any other necessary dependencies will be installed or updated if they are not already installed in a compatible version.

Installation into an existing environment from the repository

If you want to install xcube-cci directly from the git repository (for example in order to use an unreleased version or to modify the code), you can do so as follows:

$ git clone https://github.com/esa-cci/xcube-cci.git
$ cd xcube-cci
$ conda env create
$ conda activate xcube-cci
$ pip install --no-deps -e .

Testing

You can run the unit tests for xcube-cci by executing

$ pytest

in the xcube-cci repository. Note that, in order to successfully run the tests using the current repository version of xcube-cci, you may also need to install the repository version of xcube rather than its latest conda-forge release.

To create a test coverage report, you can use

coverage run --include='xcube_cci/**' --module pytest
coverage html

This will write a coverage report to htmlcov/index.html.

Use

Jupyter notebooks demonstrating the use of the xcube-cds plugin can be found in the examples/notebooks/ subdirectory of the repository.

Releasing

To release xcube-cci, please follow the steps outlined in the xcube Developer Guide.
