Is it possible to automatically take every key from bufr_dump as an argument for columns in bufr_read? #37

Is it possible to automate the opening of a bufr file without setting the specific columns? So instead of explicitly setting the "columns" argument, pdbufr would read all of the contents with each key in bufr_dump as a pandas column?

Thanks for any feedback!

Hi @ShaneMill1, Thank you for your query. Unfortunately, this is not possible in pdbufr, but we agree it would be a useful feature. We have a lot of high priority work at the moment and we plan to look into this in the second half of the year.

Kind regards, Sandor
