CADS API Python client

The ApiClient needs the url to the API root and a valid API key to access protected resources. You can also set the CADS_API_URL and CADS_API_KEY environment variables.

It is possible (but not recommended) to use the API key of one of the test users, 00000000-0000-4000-a000-000000000000. This is used in anonymous tests and it is designed to be the least performant option to access the system.

Draft Python API:

>>> import os
>>> cads_api_key = os.getenv("CADS_API_KEY", "00000000-0000-4000-a000-000000000000")

>>> import cads_api_client
>>> client = cads_api_client.ApiClient(cads_api_key)
>>> collection = client.collection("reanalysis-era5-pressure-levels")
>>> collection.end_datetime()
datetime.datetime(2022, 7, 20, 23, 0)
>>> remote = client.retrieve(
...     collection_id="reanalysis-era5-pressure-levels",
...     product_type="reanalysis",
...     variable="temperature",
...     year="2022",
...     month="01",
...     day="01",
...     level="1000",
...     time="00:00",
...     target="tmp1-era5.grib",
... )  # blocks
>>> remote = collection.submit(
...     variable="temperature",
...     product_type="reanalysis",
...     year="2021",
...     month="01",
...     day="02",
...     time="00:00",
...     level="1000",
... )  # doesn't block
>>> remote.request_uid
'...'
>>> remote.status
'...'
>>> remote.download("tmp2-era5.grib")  # blocks
'tmp2-era5.grib'

Workflow for developers/contributors

For best experience create a new conda environment (e.g. DEVELOP) with Python 3.11:

conda create -n DEVELOP -c conda-forge python=3.11
conda activate DEVELOP

Before pushing to GitHub, run the following commands:

  1. Update conda environment: make conda-env-update
  2. Install this package: pip install -e .
  3. Sync with the latest template (optional): make template-update
  4. Run quality assurance checks: make qa
  5. Run tests: make unit-tests
  6. Run the static type checker: make type-check
  7. Build the documentation (see Sphinx tutorial): make docs-build
