Make test data server configurable

Open ytremolet opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

The server http://download.ecmwf.org is hardcoded in several places in ecbuild_get_test_data.cmake It would be better if the server name be made configurable so we can use a server closer to us, add test data, etc...

This should now be addressed in the develop branch

Define ECBUILD_DOWNLOAD_BASE_URL as the base for URL construction.

I have a question.. How do we manage a bundle where test-data may possibly be distributed over multiple test-data servers? We would have to modify the variable "ECBUILD_DOWNLOAD_BASE_URL" for each subproject.

I think ECBUILD_DOWNLOAD_BASE_URL should be a default and each project should set its own variable _DOWNLOAD_BASE_URL
