Installing pygrib on Cent OS 7/ Redhat 7
Raw
centos-pygrib
Cent OS does not ship with pygrib module by default. The only way to install is to run from source or using distributions such as
conda. I succeed installing pygrib using pip and here is the documentation for future reference.
# Install all required libraries.
sudo yum install grib_api-* *jasper* libpng *zlib* *gfortran* libpng-* python-pip pyproj jpeg python-grib_api
# Install pygrin using pip
sudo pip install pygrib
Please remember that if you get some xxxxxx.h is missing error, then you have install xxxxxx-devel package.

This got me closer to a successful install, but mine still fails with:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -leccodes
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

I am getting the same fail, have you managed to resolve it?

It appears that eccodes is missing from your install. I don't have Cent OS any more, but it appears that you have to install eccodes0 or eccodes package installed before you try pip.
