arviz-base#

ArviZ base features and converters.

Important

This package is still in a very early development stage. Testing and feedback are extremely welcome, but for general applications, the main ArviZ Python library should be used.

Installation#

It currently can only be installed with pip:

pip install arviz-base

pip install arviz-base @ git+https://github.com/arviz-devs/arviz-base

Note that arviz-base is a minimal package, which only depends on xarray (and xarray-datatree which will at some point be merged into xarray), NumPy and typing-extensions.

Everything else (netcdf, zarr, dask…) are optional dependencies. This allows installing only those that are needed, e.g. if you only plan to use zarr, there is no need to install netcdf.

For convenience, some bundles are available to be installed with:

pip install "arviz-base[<option>]"

pip install "arviz-base[<option>] @ git+https://github.com/arviz-devs/arviz-base"

where <option> can be one of:

  • netcdf

  • h5netcdf

  • zarr

  • test (for developers)

  • doc (for developers)

You can install multiple bundles of optional dependencies separating them with commas. Thus, to install all user facing optional dependencies you should use xarray-einstats[einops,numba]
