A simple CLI tool to edit an attribute in a NetCDF file.
pip install git+https://github.com/cloudruninc/edit-ncattr
edit-ncattr -h
usage: edit-ncattr [-h] ncfile attr value
Edit an attribute in a NetCDF file
positional arguments:
ncfile NetCDF file to edit
attr NetCDF attribute to edit
value Value for the attribute
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
Example:
edit-ncattr wrfinput_d01 SF_SURFACE_PHYSICS 1
This tools replaces a subset of functionality from NCO's ncatted.
You could reproduce the above example with ncatted like this:
ncatted -a SF_SURFACE_PHYSICS,global,m,i,1 wrfinput_d01
Thus, if you have access to NCO, use that instead.
