This change adds information on how to set up a local environment to use EUREC4A data in own code. I.e.:

  • to install all dependencies for getting the data (pip install eurec4a[data])
  • to set up a local IPFS node for reasonable performance

I've also upgrade the IPFS / Kubo version used in the CI, as the more recent versions are quicker in finding CIDs and thus the notebook execution doesn't time out.

Thanks for updating the intro to give newbies a better start with the data and more info on IPFS!

Looks good! I think at some point we should actually mention somewhere the very basic usage of the intake catalog itself. So far we focus very much on the code presented in the book, but I guess for a lot of people accessing the data referenced in the catalog is still not totally clear.
