MAINT: remove deprecated kp tag: ''

[aburrell]

Description

GFZ changed their database, and the old format of files are not available any longer. The new dataset is of higher quality, and so we will remove support for the old dataset in version 0.2.0+ of pysatSpaceWeather.

Are there plans for a near term fix to support the extra resolution provided by this format update?

[aburrell]

The fixes are in on the 'develop' branch. @hococoder, can you confirm that these are the extent of the changes needed? If that fixes all the current problems I can get a bugfix release out.

[hococoder]

@aburrell yay! I copied over the new code in the affected part of the file, and it seems to work (It is at least definitely not crashing anymore). So it looks like it did parse correctly. Thanks for the quick turnaround - please let me know when an official bug fix release is out.

@aburrell just a heads up - instead of just updating the affected code, i upgraded to 0.0.8 and now am having major issues downloading kp data. Is this a known potential issue? I will try to get a issue filed once I get to a stopping point with what I am working on

[aburrell]

Did you update your historic tag from ‘’ to ‘def’? There should have been warnings telling you what was going on, but sometimes settings don’t let you see all of them. The GFZ database was also updated, and the new tags point to the new database and new files, which are different from the old historic files with the ‘’ tag.

I didn't see any warnings, and this wasn't for historic, but recent data. I'll file an issue when I can since this sounds like something unique

I can also say that the '' deprecation warning does not appear to be working in the develop branch.

import datetime as dt
import pysat
import pysatSpaceWeather
date = dt.datetime(2020, 1, 1)
kp = pysat.Instrument(inst_module=pysatSpaceWeather.instruments.sw_kp)
kp.download(date)
kp.load(date=date)

Only returns the warning about MetaHeader
