rust-netcdf

Medium-level NetCDF bindings for Rust

Status

Supported:

• Variables
• Normal Dimensions
• Attributes
• Subgroups
• Open/Append/Create modes
• Reading from memory (read only for now)
• Unlimited dimensions

Not (yet) supported:

• user defined types
• string variables

All variable data is read into a 1-dimensional buffer, with the resulting layout with the last variable varying the fastest. The data can also be read into an ndarray.

Building

rust-netcdf depends on libnetcdf. The Travis build runs on Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial and installs libnetcdf via apt, which results in netcdf v.4.4.0. rust-netcdf is not widely tested on other versions of netcdf.

You can build the library and run the tests via Docker like this:

docker build . -t rust-netcdf docker run -it --rm rust-netcdf

Documentation

Some examples of usage can be found in the tests/lib.rs file. The documentation can also be found using cargo doc.
