install cdo with eccodes, hdf5, netcdf4

installcdo.sh

#!/bin/bash

#   This installs CDO with ecCodes, netCDF and HDF5 support. Uses standard locations, with binaries landing in /usr/local/bin
#   Forked from https://gist.github.com/mainvoid007/e5f1c82f50eb0459a55dfc4a0953a08e
#   Updated to latest versions
#   The only “breaking” change for JasPer is the maintainer switched from make to cmake for its build

for linux there are some alternatives:

• conda: cdo is available in the conda-forge channel in the latest release (pre-built)
• spack: conda replacement, but everything is built from source

Thanks a lot for this gist. Without it, it would have taken me ages to install CDO correctly.

You’re welcome @pjpetersik!
