dapclient 1.0.5

dapclient - Quick Guide
dapclient is a client-only fork of the venerable pydap. It implements the
Opendap/DODS protocol. You can use dapclient to access scientific data on the
internet without having to download it; instead, you work with special array
and iterable objects that download data on-the-fly as necessary, saving
bandwidth and time.

Why fork pydap?

Simplify the codebase by remove the server side code
Update the code to use modern python 3.8+
Up-to-date pypi and conda packages

This version has no additional features, and it only has a few tests. My
immediate goal is to have pip and conda packages to support my tsgettoolbox
package. I will add tests and features as time (and pull requests!) allow.

Quickstart
You can install the latest version using
[pip](http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip) or conda.

$ pip install dapclient

Also maintained on the conda-forge channel [conda channel](https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/dapclient):
$ conda install -c conda-forge dapclient
This will install dapclient together with all the required
dependencies. You can now open any remotely served dataset, and dapclient
will download the accessed data on-the-fly as needed:
>>> from dapclient.client import open_url
>>> dataset = open_url('http://test.opendap.org/dap/data/nc/coads_climatology.nc')
>>> var = dataset['SST']
>>> var.shape
(12, 90, 180)
>>> var.dtype
dtype('>f4')
>>> data = var[0,10:14,10:14] # this will download data from the server
>>> data
<GridType with array 'SST' and maps 'TIME', 'COADSY', 'COADSX'>
>>> print(data.data)
