Comments
Yes, documentation is totally lacking here, but
Documentation should be added, but anyway we might need to do an update, as it might generally be necessry to provide additional information to a single URL/filename, e.g. specifying which variable names to be used in cases where several variables have the same standard_name (e.g. commonly for wind, which can be at several levels, e.g. surface, tropopause....) |

add_readers_from_file

add_readers_from_file
whenadd_readers_from_list
seems to be a drop in replacement with more built in capabilities? :)The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
