podaacpy drive API

class drive.Drive(file, username, password, webdav_url='https://podaac-tools.jpl.nasa.gov/drive/files')
download_granules(granule_collection=None, path='')

Granule download service downloads a granule collection from PO.DAAC Drive to the users’ local machine at the given path. Note, as of https://github.com/nasa/podaacpy/issues/131 we now maintain the PO.DAAC Drive directory structure. This is to say, if the Drive URL was https://podaac-tools.jpl.nasa.gov/drive/files/allData/ghrsst/data/GDS2/L2P/AVHRR19_L/NAVO/v1/2019/088/20190329001403-NAVO-L2P_GHRSST-SST1m-AVHRR19_L-v02.0-fv01.0.nc then a directory structure would be created as follows allData/ghrsst/data/GDS2/L2P/AVHRR19_L/NAVO/v1/2019/088/20190329001403-NAVO-L2P_GHRSST-SST1m-AVHRR19_L-v02.0-fv01.0.nc
