Add documentation on how to source and run/use esmvaltool from HPC central installations

[valeriupredoi]

Nice to have HPC cluster-wide installations users can just use and run without the headache of installing it themselves; we've done that on CEDA-JASMIN by installing a module that users can just load by module load esmvaltool. Once this is done elsewhere we should update the documentation.

• JASMIN done in Add instructions how to use esmvaltool from HPC central installations #841
• DKRZ: done in Add instructions how to use the central installation at DKRZ-Mistral #1155
• ETHZ: @bascrezee maybe?
• any other places?

Incidentally, I have written some instructions on how to create a working module in this comment if people would need to build their own centrally-deployed modules in a shared space like we did with @agstephens at JASMIN

I've been setting up something similar for the JupyterLab instance at DRKZ, might be nice to combine these things.

yip, good idea!

The command module load esmvaltool is now working at DKRZ as well 🥳 Feel free to try it out and let me know if it works fine @ESMValGroup/esmvaltool-coreteam

@valeriupredoi I see that we have the instructions for Jasmin on the ESMValCore documentation. Should this be also in the ESMValTool documentation? Just thinking where to add the DKRZ info.

Sorry wrong button!

awesome 🥳 Yeah that's a good idea, dude!

just passing by this in passing (terrible pun, I know 🤣 ) but do we still want to work on this? ie @Peter9192 did you have a chance to add your JupyterLab instructions or do we have anything moving at ETHZ?

[Peter9192]

I was thinking to update the JupyterLab instructions somewhen after the new release. Can we keep it open for a bit longer?

[ruthlorenz]

I do not think there has been anything moving at ETHZ, Bas is not here anymore :-(
We have talked about it with our sysadmins but at the time the decision was not to have a central installation (mainly because all the users were developers, so it would not help much). But maybe @lukasbrunner wants to look into it again?
