Adding `cftime` dependency for EDR #1609

Closed sjordan29 closed 2 months ago

sjordan29 commented 3 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When I try to build for the EDR provider with xarray datasets with cftime times, they fail to build (or, using the graceful failure feature added recently, are excluded from the build). I'd like to add cftime as a dependency so I can included these datasets in our pygeoapi instance.

An example when I try to build with a dataset that has cftimes:

Failed to decode variable 'time': unable to decode time units 'days since 1961-01-01' with "calendar 'julian'". Try opening your dataset with decode_times=False or installing cftime if it is not installed.

Describe the solution you'd like I believe all we'd need to do is add cftime to the provider requirements.

Thanks @sjordan29. I would support adding cftime to requirements-provider.txt. Please feel free to issue a PR.
