Welcome to Enstools-Encoding’s documentation! Documentation Status

Attention

This package is a building block of enstools-compression. The recommendation is to directly use enstools-compression. The only purpose of splitting the package was to provide a way of using compression filters with xarray without adding too much dependencies. It might be the main sound reason to use this package separately.

enstools-encoding is a minimal set of interfaces to convert a string compiling with a Compression Specification Format to the arguments that are actually needed to write files compressed with hdf5 filters from h5py, h5netcdf or xarray.

This package was extracted from enstools, and it’s a key piece of enstools-compression.

It has been developed within the framework of Waves to Weather [1].
