Metview on conda
Metview is available on conda for both Linux and macOS. From a conda environment, the following command will install Metview without any need to compile from source:
conda install -c conda-forge metview
Once installed, Metview can be updated with this command:
conda update -c conda-forge metview
There is also a batch-only version of Metview on conda, called metview-batch. This does not include the graphical user interface and is therefore more lightweight and can be used in environments such as Binder. It does include the ability to produce graphical plots, and they must be generated as files (PNG, PDF, SVG, ...) or as inline plots in Jupyter notebooks.
conda install -c conda-forge metview-batch
Metview's Python bindings can then be installed like this:
conda install -c conda-forge metview-python
Community-built Binary Packages
The following link provides binary installations for many Linux platforms:
From Ubuntu 16.04, Metview is available from the standard repositories and can be installed like this:
sudo apt-get install metview

See the Change History for details of each release. See also the Installation Guide.
To build Metview and its ECMWF dependencies in one go, try The Metview Source Bundle.

I would love to try out MetVIew!
However installing it is not as simple as this guide describes. Both on Mac and Linux installing with the conda command fails.
Is there a more step by step instruction document that one can use?
Sandor Kertesz
Dear Riccardo Monfardini,
The latest Metview installation documentation is available on read the docs: https://metview.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html
If the installation does not work I suggest you report it via the ECMWF support portal: https://confluence.ecmwf.int/site/support including all the relevant details so that the developers can sort out your problem.
Riccardo Monfardini
Grazie mille Sandor. The readthedocs documentation helped.
Using homebrew and understanding that there is a two step installation process (Binaries first and python interface second) really helped.
Now I can start exploring the software, cheers!
