OPeNDAP URL with 'https://' fails, same OPeNDAP endpoint with 'http:' succeeds. #699
Description
When trying to read an OPeNDAP URL, I get a file not found error:
x = cf.read('https://data.pmel.noaa.gov/aclim/thredds/dodsC/B10K-K20_Level2_CORECFS_integrated_collection.nc')
x
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'https://data.pmel.noaa.gov/aclim/thredds/dodsC/B10K-K20_Level2_CORECFS_integrated_collection.nc'
It's not file, but I don't know of a way to indicate on the read that it is an OPeNDAP URL so I assume cf.read is supposed to figure it. I expect this to work since I have the necessary netCDF libraries installed.
There is a test for 'http://' in read.py, but my attempt to add a test for or 'https://' didn't work as I expected so I don't know for sure if that is the issue, however the same THREDDS endpoint is available behind our firewall with an 'http://' address. This url works:
y = cf.read('http://[inside the firewall url]/aclim/thredds/dodsC/B10K-K20_Level2_CORECFS_integrated_collection.nc')
