addcyclic slicer IndexError

[fragkoul]

First of all, kudos to @molinav for keeping basemap alive. I still find it nicer than Cartopy.

Earlier python versions give a FutureWarning and newer python versions an IndexError on the output of the addcyclic function:
version 1.3.4, line 5098: npsel.concatenate((a,a[slicer]),axis=axis)

I suppose this needs to change to:
npsel.concatenate((a,a[tuple(slicer)]),axis=axis) ?

Hi @fragkoul! Thanks for your support and for reporting the issue.

I may have some time around Friday to check it properly, but you are very likely right, and your solution is the correct one. I remember seeing around this numpy warning for very long time, so it was a matter of time that they would stop supporting this old syntax.

If you want to try out, feel also free to provide a pull request with this change and I will accept it. If you have a simple minimal example, it would also be very nice, since I would like to start adding some basic tests to the repository based on the bugs found by the users. If you do not have time, do not worry, I will come back to it on Friday.

@fragkoul Sorry for the late feedback, I was busier than expected. I checked three example scripts from the examples folder that make use of addcyclic and I got the exact same error as you. Applying your proposed fix solves the problem, so I have just committed it to the repo.

When the pipelines pass, I will prepare a hotfix release 1.3.5 with the bugfix. I would also like to include in this hotfix the issue #522 because it is a very problematic one, so it might take me some days until I tag it (but hopefully soon).

The patch is merged into the hotfix-1.3.5 branch. Thanks for reporting the issue and the solution!

The bugfix is already available in the latest basemap release 1.3.5 (on PyPI and conda-forge).
