Initial Request
----------------------------------------------------------------
Good afternoon,
I'm a little confused of how METViewer works. On the install METViewer page (http://www.dtcenter.org/met/metviewer/doc/install.html), I can see the required libraries but none of the software to install METViewer software. Does METViewer only exist as a website (http://www.dtcenter.org/met/metviewer/metviewer1.jsp)?
Thanks!
Marcus

Hello Marcus,
METViewer can be set up as stand alone or as a web service. The
METViewer
code is currently located in an internal Subversion repository which
requires permission to access. In the near future, we will be
migrating
the code to a GitHub repository, making it more accessible. We have
also
investigated putting METviewer in a Docker container, but that is not
yet
available to the general public. METViewer is installed on some NOAA
hosts. One of the MET engineers who is more familiar with METviewer
can
identify which NOAA hosts have METviewer installed. Most of the MET
team
is out of the office this week. If you are interested in either
setting up
METviewer locally, or finding an existing install that you can access
(with
your data of interest)-someone can assist you next week. I am not
aware of
any MET users who have set up a stand-alone METviewer in their local
environment because it typically requires sys admin privileges to set
up
the data base and web services.
Feel free to contact us if you have any further questions.
Regards,
Minna

Hi Marcus,
I spoke with the developer for METviewer, and the source code for the
Docker container of METviewer is available on the GitHub repository
at:
https://github.com/NCAR/container-dtc-metviewer
It appears that this is a public GitHub repository, so you should be
able
to clone the repository and install the code after you've successfully
installed Docker on a Mac or Windows host.
The README.docker.txt file in the repository has instructions on how
to set
up your container. We cannot assist you with any issues with Docker
installation, but if you have any questions about METviewer, we'd be
happy
to assist you.
Regards,
Minna

Minna,
Thank you so much for investigating METViewer installation. I really
appreciate it. I've read the README.docker.txt file and just so I'm
100% clear, METViewer is intended to be installed on a local machine,
correct?
Marcus
