Description

Loops over time windows of defined size and creates a list of CDS requests.

Usage

Make.Request(
  QueryTimeWindows,
  QueryDataSet,
  QueryType,
  QueryVariable,
  QueryTimes,
  QueryExtent,
  QueryFormat,
  Dir = getwd(),
  verbose = TRUE,
  API_User,
  API_Key,
  TimeOut = 36000,
  FIterStart = 1
)

Arguments

QueryTimeWindows	List. List of date ranges created by Make.RequestWindows.
QueryDataSet	Character. Dataset specified by user.
QueryType	Character. Dataset type specified by user.
QueryVariable	Character. CDS internal variable name.
QueryTimes	Character. Layers of data in the raw data set
QueryExtent	Character. Extent object created by Check.Ext(Extent)[c(4,1,3,2)]
QueryFormat	Character. File format queried by user
Dir	Directory pointer. Where to store CDS request outcomes.
verbose	Logical. Whether to print/message function progress in console or not.
API_User	Character. CDS API User
API_Key	Character. CDS API Key
TimeOut	Numeric. Legacy, ignored when querying data from new CDS (https://cds-beta.climate.copernicus.eu/; this happens when the package version of ecmwfr is >= 2.0.0). The timeout for each download in seconds. Default 36000 seconds (10 hours).
FIterStart	Numeric. Meant for consistent file numbering in multi-chunk requesting.
