use of xarray #8

Open aymeric-spiga opened 6 years ago

aymeric-spiga commented 6 years ago

planetoplot could use xarray, which would make a lot more versatile and less complicated library

rpennel commented 6 years ago

Indeed, xarray is quite powerful and does right out of the box lots of things we always try to put in a homemade library.

I realized that a bit too late! When I'll have a bit of time, I'll try and use xarray and see what can be done

https://github.com/pydata/xarray is a beast. I can do almost everything I was able to do with the homemade arguably DIY planetoplot, with all the additional power I have not explored yet, and all the professional coding and support and docs. Many thanks @rpennel for the comment! The only thing I needed in addition to xarray was simple CLI access (see https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/2034) but I made a short program that does the job https://github.com/aymeric-spiga/xarray-cli

many thanks too to @jvatantollone who got me wondering about alternate solutions with his opendap question #9

Adding geoviews in the mix could be useful http://geoviews.org/gallery/bokeh/xarray_image.html#bokeh-gallery-xarray-image
