IMO, it should be emphasized a bit more that the file might not exist, which I suspect happens much more often than a backend missing. I came across this PR after me and a colleague struggled with opening a netCDF file for twenty minutes, trying to install different backends and such, until we realized that there was a typo in the filename we were trying to open. The error message could be something like:
It's a small change, but in the current version there is a risk that a beginner who knows nothing about storage backends gets stuck on "did not find a match in any of the installed backends" and goes on a wild goose chase installing packages like we did. |
