Quick start

Installing the package

The software is written in Julia language which must be installed on your computer. Julia can be downloaded by using the link Download Julia .

We recommend the VisualStudioCode as an

Install the package by typing:

]
add PenmanMonteithHourly

]
add https://github.com/AquaPore/PenmanMonteithTimeStep.jl.git

Then to use the package:

using PenmanMonteithHourly

Running the model with an example

Step 1

The following climate input csv data file can be downloaded, and a path will be automatically created.

# create a "data/input" directory in the current directory
Testdir = @__DIR__

# The path can be modified
Inputdir = joinpath(Testdir, "DATA/INPUT/Timoleague")
isdir(Inputdir) || mkpath(Inputdir)

Outputdir = joinpath(Testdir, "DATA/OUTPUT/Timoleague")
isdir(Outputdir) || mkpath(Outputdir)

Csv_path = joinpath(Inputdir, "Timoleague_Climate_Minute.csv")
Csv_url = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AquaPore/PenmanMonteithTimeStep.jl/refs/heads/master/test/Data/INPUT/Timoleague/Timoleague_Climate_Minute.csv"
download(Csv_url, Csv_path)

Step 2

The following example input toml file can be downloaded:

Testdir = @__DIR__

# The path can be modified
Inputdir = joinpath(Testdir, "DATA/INPUT/Timoleague")
isdir(Inputdir) || mkpath(Inputdir)

Outputdir = joinpath(Testdir, "DATA/OUTPUT/Timoleague")
isdir(Outputdir) || mkpath(Outputdir)

Toml_path = joinpath(Inputdir, "Timoleague_PetOption.toml")
Toml_url = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AquaPore/PenmanMonteithTimeStep.jl/refs/heads/master/test/Data/INPUT/Timoleague/Timoleague_PetOption.toml"
download(Toml_url, Toml_path)

Step 3

Run the code, as an option you could modify the [path] of the toml file Timoleague_PetOption.toml

using  PenmanMonteithTimeStep
Testdir = @__DIR__

# The path can be modified
Path_Toml = joinpath(Testdir, "DATA/INPUT/Timoleague/Timoleague_PetOption.toml")

DayHour, DayHour_Reduced, Pet_Obs, Pet_Obs_Reduced, Pet_Sim, Pet_Sim_Reduced = PenmanMonteithTimeStep.PENMAN_MONTEITH_HOURLY_RUN(;Path_Toml);
