Bugfix: extpar_art_to_buffer.py

[sbrand-dwd]

Description

A bug in the call of python modules within script extpar_art_to_buffer.py was corrected. We also ensure that an extpar image file is created and uploaded do Docker Hub for branch 'debug_dwd'. Thus, DWD's local Zonda installation can be updated with this image file and tested.

Testing and debugging

The most important test for PRs is the one labeled "EXTPAR Testsuite on Jenkins". This checks that the results of all testcases (described by the namelists in test/testsuite/data) did not change compared to the references.

You can launch the testsuite by writing launch jenkins as a comment in the PR that you want to test. Once completed, the result of the testsuite will be shown on the PR (failure or success).

If you need more details on the testsuite results (e.g., if you are trying to debug an error or you are simply unsure why the tests fail) you can launch the testsuite with launch jenkins(debug). This will run the tests as usual, but, once completed, you will be given a URL (via a comment on the PR) to access the logfiles and namelists of all tests that were run.

All good, but I need to remove the branch from the deployment list. Once it's merged you can use the image of the main branch. It usually takes 30/40 mins to generate the new image after the merge.
