BUG

get_hdw_files() does not work on windows as the unzip command doesn't exist in the same way.

This was only picked up with someone extensively testing, and we haven't come across users having this issue for now.
If you do have this issue, you can navigate to the hdw repository (path/to/your/installation/.../pydarn/utils/hdw/) inside your installation of pyDARN and clone the git repository instead of using this method (git clone https://github.com/SuperDARN/hdw.git).

I will not be fixing this for the latest release (v4.1) as it's a very obscure method, but this issue exists to help anyone if they get this error and remind me next year to fix for the next release.

Priority

  • Minor - typo, incorrect naming, fails on specific uncommon situation
  • Major - misrepresentation of data, failure in a common situation
  • Urgent - failure in usage, large misrepresentation
