ANN: First beta release of `cfgrib` a GRIB driver for xarray based on ecCodes

[Alessandro Amici]

I'm pleased to announce the first beta release of ECMWF `cfgrib`, a
Python interface to map GRIB files to the NetCDF Common Data Model
following the CF Conventions using ECMWF ecCodes for decoding.
Included in the package is a GRIB driver for xarray.

https://pypi.org/project/cfgrib/0.9.0

Features with development status **Beta**:
 - read-only GRIB driver for xarray,
 - support reading most GRIB 1 and 2 files,
 - support all modern versions of Python 3.7, 3.6, 3.5 and 2.7, plus
PyPy and PyPy3,
 - support most Linux distributions and MacOS,
 - only system dependency is the ecCodes C-library (not the
Python2-only module),
 - no install time build (binds with CFFI ABI mode),
 - read the data lazily and efficiently in terms of both memory usage
and disk access.

The main repository is hosted on GitHub, testing, bug report and
contributions are highly welcomed and appreciated.

[Alessandro Amici]

On behalf of ECMWF I'm pleased to announce the first public release of
`cfgrib`, a Python interface to map GRIB files to the NetCDF Common Data
Model following the CF Conventions using ECMWF ecCodes for decoding.
Included in the package is a GRIB driver for xarray.

https://pypi.org/project/cfgrib/0.8.4

Please note that the development stage of this project is **Alpha**.

Features:

- provisional GRIB driver for xarray,
- support all modern versions of Python 3.7, 3.6, 3.5 and 2.7, plus PyPy
and PyPy3,
- read the data lazily and efficiently in terms of both memory usage and
disk access,
- map a GRIB 1 or 2 file to a set of N-dimensional variables following the
NetCDF Common Data Model,
- add CF Conventions attributes to known coordinate and data variables,
- no write support (yet).

The main repository is hosted on GitHub, testing, bug report and
contributions are highly welcomed and appreciated. Every little help
counts, so do not hesitate!

ANN: pytest-nodev v0.9.3 - Test-driven code search

[Alessandro Amici]

I am pleased to announce the release of the new beta release of
pytest-nodev (was pytest-wish) a test-driven code search plugin for pytest:

https://pytest-nodev.readthedocs.org

Changes:
- renamed the package to pytest-nodev from pytest-wish (sorry!)
- refuse to run potentially dangerous `--wish-from-all` by default and...
- ... document how to run inside a container to safely enable all the
features
- simpler command line usage
- more documentation and references to the academic research on the
test-driven code search subject

Development effort is directed to fixing bugs and writing better
documentation before the 1.0 release. Help is welcomed and appreciated:

https://github.com/nodev-io/pytest-nodev

User questions are best directed to
http://stackoverflow.com/search?q=pytest-nodev and general questions can be
sent to pytest-...@python.org.

Thanks,
Alessandro
