Xarray Radio Astronomy Data IO is still in development.
It is recommended to use the conda environment manager to create a clean, self-contained runtime where xradio and all its dependencies can be installed:
conda create --name xradio python=3.11 --no-default-packages
conda activate xradio
📝 On macOS it is required to pre-install
python-casacore
usingconda install -c conda-forge python-casacore
.
Making xradio available for download from conda-forge directly is pending, so until then the current recommendation is to sully that pristine environment by calling pip from within conda, like this:
pip install xradio
