threedi-scenario-downloader

The threedi-scenario-downloader package includes functions in order to automate most used download actions on the 3Di results.

Example methods are:

• Download raw results.
• Download logging.
• Download maximum waterdepth (non-temporal raster).
• Download waterdepth (temporal raster, supply timestamp for snapshot).
• Find all scenarios model slug or scenario name.

Examples

Start importing the package:

>>> from threedi_scenario_downloader import downloader as dl

Set the API key for authentication to the Lizard API (you can get an API key here: <your portal>.lizard.net/management/#/personal_api_keys):

>>> dl.set_api_key("INSERT YOUR API KEY HERE")

Find scenarios based on a model slug (unique model identifier) or scenario name. Returns last 10 matching results unless told otherwise:

>>> scenarios = dl.find_scenarios_by_model_slug("enter your model_uuid", limit=10)

or:

>>> scenarios = dl.find_scenarios_by_name("my_first_scenario", limit=100)

or if you have too many similarly-named scenarios, do a case-sensitive exact search:

>>> scenarios = dl.find_scenarios_by_exact_name("my_first_scenario", limit=100)

Do you want to download the raw 3Di-results (.nc and .h5 files) of a specific scenario? Use the following methods:

>>> dl.download_raw_results("scenario_uuid")
>>> dl.download_grid_administration("scenario_uuid")

or:

>>> dl.download_raw_results("scenario_uuid",pathname="save_under_different_name.nc")
>>> dl.download_grid_administration("scenario_uuid",pathname="save_under_different_name.h5")

Downloading (temporal) rasters of specific scenarios can be done using the following methods:

>>> dl.download_maximum_waterdepth_raster("scenario_uuid",projection="EPSG:28992",resolution=10)
#download the full extent of the maximum waterdepth of the given scenario_uuid with a 10 meter resolution in the RD New/Amersfoort projection (EPSG:28992)

>>> dl.download_waterdepth_raster("scenario_uuid",projection="EPSG:28992",resolution=10,time="2019-01-01T02:00")
#download the full extend of the waterdepth at the supplied timestamp given scenario_uuid, on 10 meter resolution in the RD New/Amersfoort projection (EPSG:28992)

The raster download methods creates a task for the API. Depending on the size and resolution it takes some time for the raster to be prepared. These methods will keep on checking if the raster is ready to be downloaded. When a raster is ready to be downloaded a message in the Lizard portal is created as well. If you want to delete these messages (due to bulk downloading for example), use the following method:

>>> dl.clear_inbox()

Installation

We can be installed with:

$ pip install threedi-scenario-downloader

Development installation of this project itself

We're installed with regular pip and virtualenv. Create a virtualenv and call pip:

$ python3 -m venv venv
$ venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt

In order to get nicely formatted python files without having to spend manual work on it, run the following commands periodically:

$ venv/bin/ruff check threedi_scenario_downloader --fix
$ venv/bin/ruff format threedi_scenario_downloader

The first one also reports syntax-like errors that you'll have to fix.

Run the tests regularly. This also checks reports coverage:

$ venv/bin/pytest

Before running the tests, create a file (in this directory) called test_api_key.txt and add a lizard api key. Just the key, on one line. The tests will complain otherwise. In the github action, this .txt file is filled with the TEST_API_KEY github secret.

Contact Reinout when you need a new release, there's no automatic upload to pypi yet so he has to upload it.

If you need a new dependency (like requests), add it in setup.py in install_requires. Afterwards, run install again to actuall install your dependency:

$ venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
