Installation

conda/pip

PyGlider depends on dask and netcdf4, both of which can be tricky to install using pip, hence we recommend these be installed with conda. To install PyGlider, create an environment, and do

conda create -n gliderwork
conda activate gliderwork
conda install -c conda-forge pyglider

pixi

If you prefer pixi to conda, you can install PyGlider with

pixi init
pixi add pyglider

Editable installation

If you want to be able to edit the files in pyglider/pyglider then install the dependencies as above. Fork of PyGlider on github, and then clone it locally:

git clone https://github.com/yourname/pyglider.git

Navigate to the new pyglider directory and then do pip install -e .. That will re-install pyglider with links to the local directory, so you can edit the library files. If you do so, consider making a pull-request with your changes!

pixi editable installation:

Edit your pixi.toml file to include the following:

pypi-dependencies:
    pyglider = { path = ".", editable = true }

Note that the repo has a pyproject.toml with optional pixi tooling that should work just with just

pixi install

if you execute from the repo root.
