Exclude Test Data from Packaging
As was raised in #468 , it would be good to exclude the data files from packaging, which would cut down the space by ~68 mb. If users are interested in using it, they can clone the repo, and access it from there.
Can ARM provide storage directory for our data that we can pull for testing?
For this, we'll have to see how the ADC folks can store this. Py-ART stores it at a webpage, which then can be downloaded using pooch. @mgrover1 Have you spoke to at all to Giri with regards to this before I reach out?
If we have the location, I can always change the code over.
We can move ahead with this!
@mgrover1 Where is the data going to be stored? Trying to think of how or where to pull it from
ARM is going through some FTP security changes. I wonder if we had a second GitHub repo of just data files we could avoid any future problems? Also, would be self contained all in GitHub vs. spread across different entities.
@mgrover1 made good progress on getting the repo up for the data. I added the rest of the test files in a PR to the repo, once that's done and v2 goes through (so there isn't conflicts and overlap) I can change the testing calls to use the arm_data repo for the testing.
@zssherman @AdamTheisen - I cut the first release(s) of arm-test-data, and it is installable via pypi! Waiting on feedback on the conda-forge recipe, but that should be good to go by tomrrow.
@mgrover1 Awesome sounds good!
