Changes to Dataset class #106
Comments
Writing to netCDF4 is going to be a challenge because the user needs to install the netCDF4 C library to their systems. The java api to write netCDF4 is dependent on this requirement. See here : We can write to netCDF3 just fine, and is what the above pull request does. |
@rahulpalamuttam how about making the installation of the NetCDF-4 C Library a dependency of SciSpark (to be noted in the README.md file to install), and provide the support? |
@kwhitehall @BrianWilson1 @pzimdars This brings up a more important point. With respect to the PR - I think users would much rather prefer having to just build SciSpark and run, without installing C libraries manually. What I can do is having a switch to toggle between writing netcdf3 and netcdf4. For the netcdf4 case users must have the C library installed. This would require updating travis ci to have additional installation procedures so our builds pass. |
I'm having a tough time getting Java to see the netcdf4 library installed. Are there any members of our team who have done this successfully and used the java api to write netcdf4? |
Rename Dataset class to SciDataset.
Add method so sciDataset object can write itself to a netCDF4 file.
