Abstract

This resource provides code examples for working directly with HydroShare S3 buckets (also referred to as HydroShare cloud storage buckets or simply HydroShare buckets) to access and manage resource files, without the need to download them locally first. Working directly with S3 buckets can offer better performance.

This resource includes the following notebooks:
1- hydroshare_s3_bucket_access_examples.ipynb: Examples for working directly with HydroShare S3 buckets to access and manage resource files.
2- hs_bucket_access_gdal_example.ipynb: Examples for reading raster and shapefile directly from HydroShare S3 buckets using gdal.
3- hs_bucket_access_non_gdal_example.ipynb: Examples of using h5netcdf and xarray for reading netcdf files, rioxarray for reading raster files, and pandas for reading CSV files, all directly from HydroShare S3 buckets.

Using HydroShare Buckets to Access Resource Files

This resource includes the following files:

  • hydroshare_s3_bucket_access_examples.ipynb: Examples for working directly with HydroShare S3 buckets to access and manage resource files, without the need to download them locally first.
  • hs_bucket_access_gdal_example.ipynb: Examples for reading raster and shapefile directly from HydroShare S3 buckets using gdal, without the need to download them locally first.
  • python-modules-direct-read-from-bucket/hs_bucket_access_non_gdal_example.ipynb: Examples of using 1- h5netcdf and xarray for reading netcdf files, 2- rioxarray to read raster files, and 3- pandas to read CSV files, all directly from HydroShare S3 buckets, without the need to download them locally first.
  • user_account.py: A utility for reading cached HydroShare account information in any JupyterHub instance accessible by HydroShare. The example notebooks use this utility so that users do not have to enter their hydroshare account information manually to access hydroshare buckets.
  • conda_env: A folder containing the CondaEnvironmentSetup.ipynb notebook with instructions and scripts for setting up a custom Conda environment.
  • README.md: Explains the contents of this resource.

To use this resource in HydroShare, select Open With on one of the available application servers to launch the corresponding JupyterHub environment. Then, open the desired Jupyter Notebook and follow the instructions.
