Convert hdf5 to netcdf4 in bash, R, python or NCL?

Question

Is there a quick and simple way to convert HDF5 files to netcdf(4) from the command line in bash? Alternatively a simple script that handle such a conversion automatically in R

Answer 1

NCL's ncl_convert2nc function is my go-to for this type of problem: https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Tools/ncl_convert2nc.shtml

Answer 2

with netcdf-c library you can: $ nccopy in.h5 out.nc

Answer 3

You can easily convert hdf5 format data to nedtcdf-4 data by this command which is given below:

ncks inputfile_name.h5 outputfile_name.nc

Note: this inputfile.h5 data I have got from mosdac website.
