GRIB API Python bindings
In order to enable the Python bindings in the build,
use the --enable-python configure flag.
./configure --enable-python
This will enable the build of the Python bindings with
NumPy support enabled. Python needs to be in the path
and, of course, the NumPy package installed.
To build the Python bindings without NumPy support, use
the --disable-numpy configure flag. This will result in
Python array objects being used for data handling.
On 'make install', the Python bindings will be installed under
'${GRIBAPI_install_dir}/lib/pythonX.X/site-packages/grib_api',
where X.X is the version of python used to build the bindings.
Add this folder to your PYTHONPATH and you are ready to go.
