This is a sample template meant to be used for workflows centered around notebooks
This template is meant to give you the basic setup of an "analysis" repository, focused on storing notebooks or other pieces of scientific code/documentation. This repository is not meant to be a "one size fits all" repository, but rather, a starting point from which the user can build upon.
- Software license
- Detailed readme
- Update the environment.yml file in include the required libraries/packages
- Your analysis code/notebooks!
There are a variety of software licenses to choose from. The default for this repository is the MIT License which is short and to the point. If you are interested in learning more about which license is best for you, check out this resource to help you determine which is best for your specific needs, or consult UCAR Legal
Once you copy over this template and choose your license, you should populate your README file. This file serves as a landing page for your repository and should provide the following:
- Title of the project
- Introduction and overview of what the analysis covers
- How to contribute
- How to reproduce the conda environment
An example of this is given below
# Climate-Analysis
This is a repository meant to show how to do climate analysis.
## Contributing
Clone this repository to your account, then create your own branch to work in
"git checkout -b <nameofyourbranch>"
## Reproducing the environment
"conda env create -f envs/environment.yml"
"conda activate environment_name"
Once your repository is built and you have added your analysis, you may want to mint a DOI for your project, so you can share your work with the community AND receive credit for doing so.
Directions on how to mint a DOI for your project can be found on the NCAR Software Citation Documentation
