I would like to announce the first alpha release of esgf-pyclient: A python interface to the ESGF Search API.

Although still in development the library is already useful for finding ESGF data, including download URLs, OPeNDAP URLs, filenames, sizes and checksums.

- Download fromhttp://pypi.python.org/pypi/esgf-pyclient
- See the documentation at http://esgf-pyclient.readthedocs.org
- Follow development at http://github.com/stephenpascoe/esgf-pyclient

For a quick start try:

$ pip install esgf-pyclient
$ python
>>> from pyesgf.search import SearchConnection
>>> conn = SearchConnection('http://pcmdi9.llnl.gov/esg-search/search', distrib=True)
>>> ctx = conn.new_context(project='CMIP5', query='humidity', experiment_family='RCP')
>>> ctx.hit_count
1927
>>> ctx.search()[0].dataset_id
u'cmip5.output1.NASA-GISS.GISS-E2-R.rcp45.day.atmos.day.r6i1p1.v20120516|esgdata1.nccs.nasa.gov'

Find further examples in the documentation.

Thanks,
Stephen.
