21st Feb 2025 - Building and Using Intake Datastores

COSIMA 2025 training program
7

Hi! I’m following the instructions in the pdf (intake-training/2025_02/building-intake-esm-datastore-slides-202502.pdf at main · ACCESS-NRI/intake-training · GitHub)

I’ve tried both, from terminal and from a jupyter notebook and I get the following error when trying to build the datastore:

ValueError: asset list provided is None. Please run `.get_assets()` first

This is how I’m building (using an ARE session and xp65):

expt_datastore = use_datastore(experiment_dir = '/g/data/ik11/outputs/mom6-panan/panant-005-zstar-ACCESSyr2/',
                               catalog_dir = '~/catalog',
                               builder = builders.Mom6Builder)

I’ve also tried the instructions in cosima recipes (cosima-recipes/Tutorials/Make_Your_Own_Intake_Datastore.ipynb at main · COSIMA/cosima-recipes · GitHub) and some Charles gave us a few months back (Making Intake Datastore for panantarctic - #16 by KZCurtin) and I get the same error
