pyeccodes is a highly experimental new package. Do not install it. Please uninstall it and try again.

Thanks for the feedback. I ended up not using cfgrib, as it didn’t work for me.

This is an ongoing issue for me. If I have the binary dependencies installed via sudo apt-get install libeccodes0 , then after pip install cfgrib, I can import cfgrib and work with it. This works for python3.6 on Ubuntu 18.x.

However, if I try to package that and deploy it in a serverless (AWS Lambda) environment, I cannot import cfgrib and instead get an error: No module named 'pyeccodes'. If I include that module as part of the deployment package, then I end up with the same module pyeccodes.compat has no attribute... error.

Does anyone have a better understanding of these dependencies? Is it not possible to package cfgrib for use in a serverless environment?

@alexamici perhaps you have an idea? Is there some way to eliminate or resolve the dependency on pyeccodes?
