Before you continue

You will need python 3 (possibly version 3.5 or newer) and also a version of git that is not ancient (everything newer than 2.10 should be good) to install the esm_tools. That means that on the supported machines, you could for example use the following settings:

ollie.awi.de:

$> module load git
$> module load python3

mistral.awi.de:

$> module load git
$> module load anaconda3

glogin.hlrn.de / blogin.hlrn.de:

$> module load git
$> module load anaconda3

juwels.fz-juelich.de:

$> module load git
$> module load Python-3.6.8

Note that some machines might raise an error conflict netcdf_c when loading anaconda3. In that case you will need to swap netcdf_c with anaconda3:

$> module swap netcdf_c anaconda3

Installing

To use the new version of the esm-tools, now rewritten in Python, clone this repository:

$> git clone https://github.com/esm-tools/esm_tools.git

Then, run the install.sh:

$> ./install.sh

You should now have the command line tools esm_master and esm_runscripts, which replace the old version.

You may have to add the installation path to your PATH variable:

$> export PATH=~/.local/bin:$PATH
