netcdf_reader/

lib.rs

//! Pure-Rust NetCDF file reader.
//!
//! Supports:
//! - **CDF-1** (classic): `CDF\x01` magic
//! - **CDF-2** (64-bit offset): `CDF\x02` magic
//! - **CDF-5** (64-bit data): `CDF\x05` magic
//! - **NetCDF-4** (HDF5-backed): `\x89HDF\r\n\x1a\n` magic (requires `netcdf4` feature)
//!
//! # Example
//!
//! ```no_run
//! use netcdf_reader::NcFile;
//!
//! let file = NcFile::open("example.nc").unwrap();
//! println!("format: {:?}", file.format());
//! for var in file.variables().unwrap() {
//!     println!("  variable: {} shape={:?}", var.name(), var.shape());
//! }
//! ```
