grib2io v2.2.0

What's Changed

• Fixed issue when opening GRIB2 files via the xarray backend by @TimothyCera-NOAA in #126
• Added support for MRMS GRIB2 files and custom MRMS GRIB2 tables File by @EricEngle-NOAA in #127
  • MRMS GRIB2 files are Gzipped. grib2io can now read Gzipped GRIB2 files, but this cannot be done using the xarray backend
• Cleanup of GRIB2 message indexing and allow for GRIB1 messages to be ignored by @EricEngle-NOAA in #129
  • Some ECMWF files contain both GRIB1 and GRIB2 messages
• Add support for PDT 4.32 by @EricEngle-NOAA in #130
• Properly mask output data when interpolating from smaller to larger domain by @EricEngle-NOAA in #133
• Improved docstrings and some type hints. by @TimothyCera-NOAA in #134
• Grib2Message class now contains properties lats and lons by @EricEngle-NOAA in #135
• Static library build support by @EricEngle-NOAA in #138
• Expose bitmap as public Grib2Message attribute by @EricEngle-NOAA in #140
• Added to_grib2() xarray accessor method for xarray.Dataset and xarray.DataArray objects by @TimothyCera-NOAA in #136
• Improved performance when opening files by removing the use of a 1MB buffer (leftover from grib2io v1.x) and by making grib2io.open attrs levels and variables properties by @EricEngle-NOAA in 2fd5219 and 626e28e
• Added NCEP GRIB2 table version number by @EricEngle-NOAA in 01e3f62

• Added properties min, max, mean, and median to the Grib2Message object by @EricEngle-NOAA in 24e4260
• Added ability to control the number of OpenMP threads used for interpolation @EricEngle-NOAA in b0d2245

Details about writing to GRIB2 from the Xarray Backend

grib2io v2.2.0 introduces the ability to write GRIB2 files from the xarray backend via .to_grib2() accessor methods for xarray.Dataset and xarray.DataArray objects. At this time, this will only work if xarray objects originated from the grib2io xarray backend. The .to_grib2() accessor method leverages xarray attributes 'GRIB2IO_section*' that are the numeric GRIB2 metadata sections. Future updates to the grib2io xarray backend will further build out this functionality.
