WRF Python compatibility on MAC IOS with M1 #199

I'm having trouble using WRF Python on IOS with M1. There's a solution?

erogluorhan commented 1 year ago

Great feedback, thanks! On a different software tool with similar developments needs with WRF-Python, we are working on this. I am hoping we can get a solution soon there, which could hopefully be applicable immediately here. Stay tuned!

Some of the problems seems also to be tied to "basemap" which is failing on conda for the M1 chip.

kafitzgerald commented 4 months ago

Just noting that this has gotten substantially easier now that basemap is available on conda-forge for this platform.

There's now a build in the WRF-Python CI testing for M1, but not yet a release on conda-forge. I'll wait to close this until that's the case.

This conda environment file should get you an environment where you can relatively easily build wrf-python though.
