This guide describes how to install ecCodes with Python bindings in a conda environment (Note: Python here means Python 3; Python 2 is deprecated).

Step-by-step guide

1. If you do not already have a conda environment installed on your system, the simplest is to download a miniconda installer for your platform

   To install ecCodes, you should download the miniconda installer for a 64-bit operating system with Python 3

   
   

2. Once miniconda is installed, activate it and then install ecCodes using conda:

   conda install -c conda-forge eccodes

   This will install the ecCodes library and tools for you.

3. The final step is to install the ecCodes Python bindings using pip.  Still in your conda environment:

   pip3 install eccodes

   
   

Your ecCodes installation is now ready to use !
