Pygrib Module
-
Hi there,
Is there any way possible to get the Pygrib module (https://code.google.com/p/pygrib/) working in Pythonista?
Or if possible, can I make a feature request to have it added to Pythonista?
Being able to use Pygrib would open up a lot of possibilities to create cool weather forecasting type scripts.Thanks,

Pygrib appears to be written in C, which means that there is no way to install it under Pythonista, because Apple doesn't allow on-device compiling of code. The only way to use it would be to have it added to Pythonista's built-in modules, though to be honest I'm not sure how the chances would be, considering that it is a very specific library that would only be of interest to a few people.

Thanks for the response.
Ok, that makes sense.Perhaps the Nio module (https://www.pyngl.ucar.edu/Nio.shtml) could be added into the built-in modules as it supports a number of file types.
I do agree that it would only be of interest for very few people, but I guess it does not hurt to ask.Thanks again.
