netCDF4 via h5py

Project description

https://travis-ci.org/shoyer/h5netcdf.svg?branch=master https://badge.fury.io/py/h5netcdf.svg

A Python interface for the netCDF4 file-format that reads and writes HDF5 files API directly via h5py, without relying on the Unidata netCDF library.

This is an experimental project. It currently passes basic tests for reading and writing netCDF4 files with Python, but it has not been tested for compatibility with other netCDF4 interfaces.

Install:

Ensure you have h5py installed (I recommend using conda). Then: pip install h5netcdf

Docs:

TODO, but the API should be almost entirely consistent with netCDF4-python.
