Version 3.0.0

v3.0.0

2024-09-11

The configuration file schema for earthdata-varinfo is significantly updated
in this release. For more information, see the release notes for schema v1.0.0
in config/CHANGELOG.md.

Added:

• Groups within a NetCDF-4 or DMR file are now assigned to the VarInfo*.groups
  dictionary, allowing for their metadata attributes to be accessed after parsing
  an input file.

Changed:

• CFConfig.get_cf_attributes has been renamed CFConfig.get_metadata_overrides,
  as there are now only overrides to be returned from this method. Calls to
  CFConfig.get_metadata_overrides now must specify a variable path. All
  overrides from a configuration file for a given collection are now retrievable
  from the newly public CFConfig.metadata_overrides class attribute.
• Metadata overrides retrieved for a matching file path are ordered such that
  the most specific applicable override to the variable takes precedence. For
  example, when requesting the value of the "units" metadata attribute for
  variable "/nested/variable", an applicability rule that exactly matches this
  variable path will take precedence over rules matching to either the group,
  or all variables in the file.
• Handling of nested Applicability_Groups has been removed from the CFConfig
  class, as the configuration file no longer nests these items in overrides.

Removed:

• CFConfig._cf_supplements has been deprecated in favour of specifying all
  in-file metadata changes via a MetadataOverrides item (formerly
  CFOverrides) instead.
