Hi,
I'm not aware of any reason those two modules should interfere--provided
they're using the same libhdf5. Can you provide the full traceback and text
of the error? Otherwise we're just shooting in the dark here.
I can say that the following code works without error for me on macOS 10.15
and Python 3.8, all from conda-forge:
from netCDF4 import Dataset
import h5py
import numpy as np
nc = Dataset('test.nc', 'w')
nc.createDimension('x', 10)
nc.createDimension('y', 20)
var = nc.createVariable('test', np.float64, ('x', 'y'))
var[:] = np.arange(200.).reshape(10, 20)
nc.close()
Does this code fail for you?
