Can't run tutorial on Windows

[edoyango]

Because of #81 and the current need to have healpy and reproject installed to import pyearthtools.pipeline, I can't run the tutorial on Windows since healpy doesn't build on Windows (yet).

Oh good to know. That code is only relevant to specific datasets and specific models, so it "should" be optional and as far as I know is un-necessary for the tutorials and much of the functionality. I will prioritise making the build not install them by default. Do you think it would be worth making a specific windows variant installation, or do you think there will only be a few of these kinds of problems and I can just make a general fix for them in each case?

Good question! I haven't run all the tutorials on windows yet so can't say for sure whether a windows variant is needed.

Would it be easier for you if I make this a "running tutorial windows issue" and add problems/suggestions to it as I identify them?

It's easier for me to have more finer-grained issues so I can turn each one around quickly with a tight scope. If you'd like to make a tracking issue that's fine, but please do keep raising issues per problem as well even if you do that.

I have created a pull request to resolve this issue. It passes the tests in an environment without healpy or reproject installed. I am not sure whether to merge it now and ask you to re-test from develop, or whether you are comfortable pulling the branch from my fork and testing it pre-merge. I'll wait a few days, and if I don't hear back, I'll go ahead and merge the pull request.

Hi @tennlee I've tested your fork and it looks good now - the default packages doesn't install with healpy. And the remapping variant installs it correctly. Happy to say this ones resolved once your branch is merged!
