Install compare_esgf as a script #17

compare_esgf should be available by default when you install arccssive

pip install --user arccsive
CMIP5_DB=...
compare_esgf -v thetao -e historicalMisc -t Omon

Are there other scripts that need to be easily accessed?

all the scripts in examples are more of a way to use the module functionality, said so compare_ESGF.py is still undergoing quite a few changes. In fact the version I'm currently working on it's fairly different from what Damien is using, but I was waiting to see if we could speed up the json objects retrieval from the ESGF db before making it more public. Apparently the new pyesgf has an option that can speed this up, the other option is to access this directly from NCI db, which I'm trying to organise with Claire T. Finally I can't reproduced Damien error even using the new pyesgf, so I suspect is using an older version of the script

Just got an answer from Claire that NCI doesn't currently have a local copy of the remote "shards" , they planning to eventually but it's not a priority, so for the moment this is not a viable option
