        Welcome to the scripting interfaces of [CDO](https://code.zmaw.de/projects/cdo/wiki)!
        This repository contains interfaces for [Ruby](http://www.ruby-lang.org) and [Python](https://www.python.org). If you are not sure, wether this is useful or not, please have a look at:
        [Why the .... should I use this???](https://code.zmaw.de/projects/cdo/wiki/Cdo%7Brbpy%7D#Why-the-)
        
        ## What's going on
        
        Currently this package is in a re-design phase. The target is a 2.0 release that will **not be compatible** with the exising release 1.5.x:
        * Write operator chains like methods chains with ```.``` as much as possible
        * hopefully reduce the number of ```kwargs``` keys
        * keep the Ruby and Python interface similar
        * possibly drop python-2.x support ... I am not sure when to do this best
        
        ## Installation
        
        Releases are distributed via [pypi](https://pypi.org/project/cdo) and [rubygems](https://rubygems.org/gems/cdo):
        
        *  Ruby
        ```
            gem install cdo (--user-install)
        ```
        *  Python
        ```
            pip install cdo (--user)
        ```
        
        ### Requirements
        
        Cdo.{rb,py} requires a working CDO binary and Ruby 2.x or Python 2.7/3.x
        
        Multi-dimensional arrays (numpy for python, narray for ruby) require addtional
        netcdf-io modules. These are [scipy](https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/io.html) or [python-netcdf4](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/netCDF4) for python and
        [ruby-netcdf](https://rubygems.org/gems/ruby-netcdf) for ruby. Because scipy has some difficulties with netcdf, I dropped the support of it with release 1.5.0.
        
        Thx to Alexander Winkler there is also an IO option for XArray.
        
        ## Usage
        
        You can find a lot of examples in the unit tests for both languages. Here are the direct links to the [ruby tests](https://github.com/Try2Code/cdo-bindings/blob/master/ruby/test/test_cdo.rb) and the [python tests](https://github.com/Try2Code/cdo-bindings/blob/master/python/test/test_cdo.py).
        
        The following describes the basic features for both languages
        
        ### Run operators
        
        Befor calling operators, you have to create an object first:
        
        ```ruby
            cdo = Cdo.new   #ruby
        ```
        ```python
            cdo = Cdo()     #python
        ```
        
        Please check the documentation for constructor paramaters. I try to have equal interfaces in both languages for all public methods.
        
        ### Choose CDO binary
        
        By default the cdo-bindings use the 'cdo' binary found in your $PATH variable. To change that, you can
        
        * load a module before calling your script(```module command``` or another package manager like ```conda``` or ```spack```)
        * use the CDO environment variable to set the path to be used
        * use the python/ruby method ```cdo.setCdo('/path/to/the/CDO/executable/you/want')```. By this technique you can create different objects for different CDO versions.
        
        ### Debugging
        
        For debugging purpose, both interfaces provide a "debug" attribute. If it is set to a boolian true, the complete commands and the return values will be printed during execution
        
        ```ruby
            cdo.debug = true    #ruby
        ```
        ```python
            cdo.debug = True    #python
        ```
        
        The default is false of cause.
        
        #### File information
        ```ruby
            cdo.infov(input: ifile)        #ruby
            cdo.showlevels(input: ifile)
        
        ```
        ```python
            cdo.infov(input=ifile)         #python
            cdo.showlevels(input=ifile)
        ```
        
        #### Operators with user defined regular output files
        ```ruby
            cdo.timmin(input: ifile ,output: ofile)       #ruby
        ```
        ```python
            cdo.timmin(input = ifile,output = ofile)      #python
        ```
        By default the return value of each call is the name of the output files (no matter if its a temporary file or not)
        
        #### Use temporary output files
        If the output key is left out, one or more (depending on the operator) temporary files are generated and used as return value(s). In a regular script or a regularly closed interactive session, these files are removed at the end automatically.
        
        ```ruby
            tminFile = cdo.timmin(input: ifile)  #ruby
        ```
        ```python
            tminFile = cdo.timmin(input = ifile) #python
        ```
        However these tempfiles remain if the session/script is killed with SIGKILL or if the bindings are used via Jupyter notebooks. Those session are usually long lasting and the heavy usage of tempfiles can easily fill the system tempdir - your system will become unusable then.
        The bindings offer two ways to cope with that
        * Set another directory for storing tempfiles with a constructor option and remove anything left in there when you experienced a crash or something like this
        ```python
           cdo = Cdo(tempdir=tempPath)      #python
           cdo = Cdo.new(tempdir: tempPath) #ruby
        ```
        * remove all tempfiles created by this or former usage of the cdo-bindings belonging to your current Unix-user with (taking into account user-defined ```tempdir``` from above
        ```
           cdo.cleanTempDir() #python
           cdo.cleanTempDir   #ruby
        ```
        Alternatively you can use environment variables to set this. Python's and Ruby's ```tempfile``` libraries support the variables 'TMPDIR', 'TEMP' and 'TMP' in their current versions (python-3.8.2, ruby-2.7.0). This feature might be used by administrators to keep users from filling up system directories.
           
        #### Operators with parameter
        ```ruby
            cdo.remap([gridfile,weightfile],input:   ifile, output: ofile)   #ruby
        ```
        ```python
            cdo.remap([gridfile,weightfile],input => ifile, output => ofile) #python
        ```
        
        #### logging
        ```ruby
            cdo = Cdo.new(logging: true, logFile: 'cdo_commands.log') #ruby
        ```
        ```python
            cdo = Cdo(logging=True, logFile='cdo_commands.log')       #python
        ```
        
        #### Set global CDO options
        ```ruby
            cdo.copy(input:  ifile, output:  ofile,options:  "-f nc4")     #ruby
        ```
        ```python
            cdo.copy(input = ifile, output = ofile,options = "-f nc4")     #python
        ```
        
        #### Set environment variables
        ```ruby
            cdo.splitname(input: ifile.join(' '),
                          output: 'splitTag',
                          env: {'CDO_FILE_SUFFIX' => '.nc'}) #or
            cdo.env = {'CDO_FILE_SUFFIX' => '.nc'}
        ```
        ```python
            cdo.splitname(input = ' '.join(ifiles),
                          output =  'splitTag', 
                          env={"CDO_FILE_SUFFIX": ".nc"})   #or
            cdo.env = {'CDO_FILE_SUFFIX': '.nc'}
        ```
        
        #### Return multi-dimension arrrays
        ```ruby
            t = cdo.fldmin(:input => ifile,:returnArray => true).var('T').get  #rb, version <  1.2.0
            t = cdo.fldmin(:input => ifile,:returnCdf => true).var('T').get    #rb, version >= 1.2.0
            t = cdo.fldmin(:input => ifile,:returnArray => 'T')                #rb, version >= 1.2.0
        ```
        ```python
            t = cdo.fldmin(input = ifile,returnArray = True).variables['T'][:] #py, version <  1.2.0
            t = cdo.fldmin(input = ifile,returnCdf = True).variables['T'][:]   #py, version >= 1.2.0
            t = cdo.fldmin(input = ifile,returnArray = 'T')                    #py, version >= 1.2.0
        ```
        
        Other options are so-called _masked arrays_ (use ```returnMaArray```) for ruby and python and XArray/XDataset for python-only: use ```returnXArray``` or ```returnXDataset``` for that.
        
        *) If you use scipy >= 0.14 as netcdf backend, you have to use following code
        instead to avoid possible segmentation faults:
        ```python
            cdf = cdo.fldmin(input = ifile,returnCdf = True)
            temperatures = cdf.variables['T'][:]
        ```
        More examples can be found in test/cdo-examples.rb and [on the
        homepage](https://code.zmaw.de/projects/cdo/wiki/Cdo%7Brbpy%7D)
        
        ### Avoid re-processing
        
        If you do not want to re-compute files, you can set
        
        *  the instance attribute 'forceOutput' to false: this will effect all later
           call of that instance **or**
        *  the operator option 'forceOutput' to false: this will only effect this
           operator call of this instance
        
        For more information, please have a look at the unit tests.

        ## Changelog
        * **1.5.1(ruby-only)**:
          - fix some warnings with latest ruby release 2.7.x
        * **1.5.0(ruby)/1.5.3(python)** API change :
          - simplify the interface:
            - remove returnCdf from constructor, only use it with operator calls
            - remove methods setReturnArray/unsetReturnArray: I fear it's not used anyway, but 'returnArray' in each call
            - remove the optional dependency to scipy since it offers less functionality than netCDF4 and just blows up the code
            - new attributes: hasNetcdf, hasXArray for checking for the respective support
            - fix for cdo-1.9.6: allow non-zero return code for diff operators
          - the 1.5.2 relase for python is identical to 1.5.0 (was testing a new setup.py and version cannot be used twice in pipy)
          - 1.5.1 had building problems with pip based on python2
        * **1.4.0** API change :
          - the ```operators``` atribute is no longer a list, but a dict (python) or hash (ruby) holding the number of output streams as value
          - finally fix #16 (missing tempfile generation for more than one output streams)
          - fix #19 (thx @pgierz for the input)
        * **1.3.6**: 
          - bugfix for non-finding the CDO binary on some systems
          - fix hasCdo (py)
          - add hasCdo (rb)
        * **1.3.5**:
          - read/write support for XArray datasets - thx to @pinplex!
          - **drop ruby support for 1.9 and older**
          - **remove module interface from the ruby version**
        * **1.3.3**:
          - return arrays/lists of output files, which are created by split* operators
            suggestion from Karl-Hermann Wieners :ocean:
            **NOTE**: __this is done by simple globbing! Any other files with the appropriate name will be included in the list!__
          - use [six](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/six) for python2 and 3 compatibility (thanks to @jvegasbsc)
          - drop full support of CDO version older then 1.5.4: undocumented operators
            in these version will not be callable
          - new keyword for operators which write to stdout: autoSplit. When set, each
            line will be split with the given value of the keyword to avoid the need
            for manual splitting. Nested return arrays of (outer) size 1 are flattened.
            See #11, thx to @beatorizu
        * **1.3.2**
          - improvened stdout/stderr handling, thx to jvegasbsc
        * **1.3.1**
          - fix environment handling per call (ruby version)
        * **1.3.0**
          - require ruby-2.*
          - support for upcomming CDO release 1.7.1
          - improve loggin for ruby

          - Added class interface for ruby version 2.x, mainly for thread safety
        * **1.2.6**
          - bugfix for autocompletion in interactive usage [python-only]
        * **1.2.5**

          - optionally return None on error (suggestion from Alex Loew, python only)
        * **1.2.1**
          - new return option: Masked Arrays
            if the new keyword returnMaArray is given, its value is taken as variable
            name and a masked array wrt to its FillValues is returned
            contribution for python by Alex Loew
          - error handling: return stderr in case of non-zero return value + raise exception
            contribution for python from Estanislao Gonzalez
          - autocompletion and built-in documentation through help() for interactive use
            contribution from Estanislao Gonzalez [python]
          - Added help operator for displaying help interactively [ruby]
        * **1.2.0** API change:
          - Ruby now uses the same keys like the python interface, i.e. :input and :output
            instead of :in and :out
          - :returnArray will accept a variable name, for which the multidimesional
            array is returned
        * **1.1.0** API change:
          - new option :returnCdf : will return the netcdf file handle, which was formerly
            done via :returnArray
          - new options :force : if set to true the cdo call will be run even if the given
            output file is presen, default: false
