MetPy Cookbook

nightly-build Binder DOI

This Cookbook is the oversized recipe book for all your MetPy needs. We provide a gallery of real workflows centered around meteorological data, and the building blocks you need to recreate those workflows or cook up brand new ones yourself. Create the maps and analyses you've seen from class and professional institutions alike!

Running the Notebooks

You can either run the notebook using Binder or on your local machine.

Running on Binder

The simplest way to interact with a Jupyter Notebook is through Binder, which enables the execution of a Jupyter Book in the cloud. The details of how this works are not important for now. All you need to know is how to launch a Pythia Cookbooks chapter via Binder. Simply navigate your mouse to the top right corner of the book chapter you are viewing and click on the rocket ship icon, (see figure below), and be sure to select “launch Binder”. After a moment you should be presented with a notebook that you can interact with. I.e. you’ll be able to execute and even change the example programs. You’ll see that the code cells have no output at first, until you execute them by pressing {kbd}Shift+{kbd}Enter. Complete details on how to interact with a live Jupyter notebook are described in Getting Started with Jupyter.

Running on Your Own Machine

If you are interested in running this material locally on your computer, you will need to follow this workflow:

  1. Clone the https://github.com/ProjectPythia/metpy-cookbook repository:

     git clone https://github.com/ProjectPythia/metpy-cookbook.git
  2. Move into the metpy-cookbook directory

    cd metpy-cookbook
  3. Create and activate your conda environment from the environment.yml file

    conda env create -f environment.yml
    conda activate metpy-cookbook
  4. Move into the notebooks directory and start up Jupyter Lab

    cd notebooks/
    jupyter lab
