xarray -

This release reverts a breaking change to Xarray's preferred netCDF backend.

Climate Change - Climate Data Standards - Python
Published by shoyer 6 months ago

xarray - v2025.09.1

This release contains improvements to netCDF IO and the DataTree.from_dict() constructor, as well as a variety of bug fixes. In particular, the default netCDF backend has switched from netCDF4 to h5netcdf, which is typically faster.

Thanks to the 17 contributors to this release: Claude, Deepak Cherian, Dimitri Papadopoulos Orfanos, Dylan H. Morris, Emmanuel Mathot, Ian Hunt-Isaak, Joren Hammudoglu, Julia Signell, Justus Magin, Maximilian Roos, Nick Hodgskin, Spencer Clark, Stephan Hoyer, Tom Nicholas, gronniger, joseph nowak and pierre-manchon

Climate Change - Climate Data Standards - Python

xarray - v2025.09.0

This release brings a number of small improvements and fixes, especially related to writing DataTree objects and netCDF files to disk.

Thanks to the 13 contributors to this release: Benoit Bovy, DHRUVA KUMAR KAUSHAL, Deepak Cherian, Dhruva Kumar Kaushal, Giacomo Caria, Ian Hunt-Isaak, Illviljan, Justus Magin, Kai Mühlbauer, Ruth Comer, Spencer Clark, Stephan Hoyer and Tom Nicholas

New Features

Support rechunking by SeasonResampler for seasonal data analysis (GH10425, PR10519). By Dhruva Kumar Kaushal.

Add convenience methods to Coordinates (PR10318) By Justus Magin.

Added load_datatree() for loading DataTree objects into memory from disk. It has the same relationship to open_datatree(), as load_dataset() has to open_dataset(). By Stephan Hoyer.

compute=False is now supported by DataTree.to_netcdf() and DataTree.to_zarr(). By Stephan Hoyer.

open_dataset will now correctly infer a path ending in .zarr/ as zarr By Ian Hunt-Isaak.

Breaking changes

Following pandas 3.0 (pandas-dev/pandas#61985), Day is no longer considered a Tick-like frequency. Therefore non-None values of offset and non-"start_day" values of origin will have no effect when resampling to a daily frequency for objects indexed by a xarray.CFTimeIndex. As in pandas-dev/pandas#62101 warnings will be emitted if non default values are provided in this context (GH10640, PR10650). By Spencer Clark.

The default backend engine used by Dataset.to_netcdf() and DataTree.to_netcdf() is now chosen consistently with open_dataset() and open_datatree(), using whichever netCDF libraries are available and valid, and preferring netCDF4 to h5netcdf to scipy (GH10654). This will change the default backend in some edge cases (e.g., from scipy to netCDF4 when writing to a file-like object or bytes). To override these new defaults, set engine explicitly. By Stephan Hoyer.

The return value of Dataset.to_netcdf() without path is now a memoryview object instead of bytes (PR10656). This removes an unnecessary memory copy and ensures consistency when using either engine="scipy" or engine="h5netcdf". If you need a bytes object, simply wrap the return value of to_netcdf() with bytes(). By Stephan Hoyer.

Bug fixes

Fix contour plots not normalizing the colors correctly when using for example logarithmic norms. (GH10551, PR10565) By Jimmy Westling.

Fix distribution of auto_complex keyword argument for open_datatree (GH10631, PR10632). By Kai Mühlbauer.

Warn instead of raise in case of misconfiguration of unlimited_dims originating from dataset.encoding, to prevent breaking users workflows (GH10647, PR10648). By Kai Mühlbauer.

DataTree.to_netcdf() and DataTree.to_zarr() now avoid redundant computation of Dask arrays with cross-group dependencies (GH10637). By Stephan Hoyer.

DataTree.to_netcdf() had h5netcdf hard-coded as default (GH10654). By Stephan Hoyer.

Internal Changes
Run TestNetCDF4Data as TestNetCDF4DataTree through open_datatree (PR10632). By Kai Mühlbauer.

Enhancements

  • New sortby() method to Dataset and DataArray that enable sorting along dimensions (GH967). See the docs for examples. By Chun-Wei Yuan and Kyle Heuton.
  • Add .dt accessor to DataArrays for computing datetime-like properties for the values they contain, similar to pandas.Series (GH358). By Daniel Rothenberg.
  • Renamed internal dask arrays created by open_dataset to match new dask conventions (GH1343). By Ryan Abernathey.
  • as_variable() is now part of the public API (GH1303). By Benoit Bovy.
  • align() now supports join='exact', which raises an error instead of aligning when indexes to be aligned are not equal. By Stephan Hoyer.
  • New function open_rasterio() for opening raster files with the rasterio library. See the docs for details. By Joe Hamman, Nic Wayand and Fabien Maussion

Bug fixes

  • Fix error from repeated indexing of datasets loaded from disk (GH1374). By Stephan Hoyer.
  • Fix a bug where .isel_points wrongly assigns unselected coordinate to data_vars. By Keisuke Fujii.
  • Tutorial datasets are now checked against a reference MD5 sum to confirm successful download (GH1392). By Matthew Gidden.
  • DataArray.chunk() now accepts dask specific kwargs like Dataset.chunk() does. By Fabien Maussion.
  • Support for engine='pydap' with recent releases of Pydap (3.2.2+), including on Python 3 (GH1174).

Documentation

  • A new gallery allows to add interactive examples to the documentation. By Fabien Maussion.

Testing

  • Fix test suite failure caused by changes to pandas.cut function (GH1386). By Ryan Abernathey.
  • Enhanced tests suite by use of @network decorator, which is controlled via --run-network-tests command line argument to py.test (GH1393). By Matthew Gidden.

  • New expand_dims() method for DataArray and Dataset (GH1326). By Keisuke Fujii.

Bug fixes

  • Fix .where() with drop=True when arguments do not have indexes (GH1350). This bug, introduced in v0.9, resulted in xarray producing incorrect results in some cases. By Stephan Hoyer.
  • Fixed writing to file-like objects with to_netcdf() (GH1320). Stephan Hoyer.
  • Fixed explicitly setting engine='scipy' with to_netcdf when not providing a path (GH1321). Stephan Hoyer.
  • Fixed open_dataarray does not pass properly its parameters to open_dataset (GH1359). Stephan Hoyer.
  • Ensure test suite works when runs from an installed version of xarray (GH1336). Use @pytest.mark.slow instead of a custom flag to mark slow tests. By Stephan Hoyer

Climate Change - Climate Data Standards - Python
Published by shoyer almost 9 years ago

xarray - v0.9.2

The minor release includes bug-fixes and backwards compatible enhancements.

Enhancements

  • .rolling() on Dataset is now supported (GH859). By Keisuke Fujii.
  • When bottleneck version 1.1 or later is installed, use bottleneck for rolling var, argmin, argmax, and rank computations. Also, rolling median now accepts a min_periods argument (GH1276). By Joe Hamman.
  • When .plot() is called on a 2D DataArray and only one dimension is specified with x= or y=, the other dimension is now guessed (GH1291). By Vincent Noel.
  • Added new method assign_attrs() to DataArray and Dataset, a chained-method compatible implementation of the dict.update method on attrs (GH1281). By Henry S. Harrison.
  • Added new autoclose=True argument to open_mfdataset() to explicitly close opened files when not in use to prevent occurrence of an OS Error related to too many open files (GH1198). Note, the default is autoclose=False, which is consistent with previous xarray behavior. By Phillip J. Wolfram.
  • The repr() of Dataset and DataArray attributes uses a similar format to coordinates and variables, with vertically aligned entries truncated to fit on a single line (GH1319). Hopefully this will stop people writing data.attrs = {} and discarding metadata in notebooks for the sake of cleaner output. The full metadata is still available as data.attrs. By Zac Hatfield-Dodds.
  • Enhanced tests suite by use of @slow and @flaky decorators, which are controlled via --run-flaky and --skip-slow command line arguments to py.test (GH1336). By Stephan Hoyer and Phillip J. Wolfram.

Bug fixes

  • Rolling operations now keep preserve original dimension order (GH1125). By Keisuke Fujii.
  • Fixed sel with method='nearest' on Python 2.7 and 64-bit Windows (GH1140). Stephan Hoyer.
  • Fixed where with drop='True' for empty masks (GH1341). By Stephan Hoyer and Phillip J. Wolfram.

This release includes a number of bug fixes and minor enhancements.

Breaking changes

  • broadcast() and concat() now auto-align inputs, using join=outer. Previously, these functions raised ValueError for non-aligned inputs. By Guido Imperiale.

Enhancements

  • New documentation on Transitioning from pandas.Panel to xarray. By Maximilian Roos.
  • New Dataset and DataArray methods to_dict() and from_dict() to allow easy conversion between dictionaries and xarray objects (#432). See dictionary IO for more details. By Julia Signell.
  • Added exclude and indexes optional parameters to align(), and exclude optional parameter to broadcast(). - By Guido Imperiale.
  • Better error message when assigning variables without dimensions (#971). By Stephan Hoyer.
  • Better error message when reindex/align fails due to duplicate index values (#956). By Stephan Hoyer.

Bug fixes

  • Ensure xarray works with h5netcdf v0.3.0 for arrays with dtype=str (#953). By Stephan Hoyer.
  • Dataset.dir() (i.e. the method python calls to get autocomplete options) failed if one of the dataset’s keys was not a string (#852). By Maximilian Roos.
  • Dataset constructor can now take arbitrary objects as values (#647). By Maximilian Roos.
    Clarified copy argument for reindex() and align(), which now consistently always return new xarray objects (#927).
  • Fix open_mfdataset with engine='pynio' (#936). By Stephan Hoyer.

xarray - v0.8.0

v0.8.0 (2 August 2016)

This release includes new features and bug fixes, including several breaking changes.

Breaking changes

  • Dropped support for Python 2.6 (#855).
  • Indexing on multi-index now drop levels, which is consistent with pandas. It also changes the name of the dimension / coordinate when the multi-index is reduced to a single index (#802).
  • Contour plots no longer add a colorbar per default (#866). Filled contour plots are unchanged.
  • DataArray.values and .data now always returns an NumPy array-like object, even for 0-dimensional arrays with object dtype (#867). Previously, .values returned native Python objects in such cases. To convert the values of scalar arrays to Python objects, use the .item() method.

Enhancements

  • Groupby operations now support grouping over multidimensional variables. A new method called xarray.Dataset.groupby_bins has also been added to allow users to specify bins for grouping. The new features are described in groupby.multidim and examples.multidim. By Ryan Abernathey.
  • DataArray and Dataset method where now supports a drop=True option that clips coordinate elements that are fully masked. By Phillip J. Wolfram.
  • New top level merge function allows for combining variables from any number of Dataset and/or DataArray variables. See merge for more details. By Stephan Hoyer.
  • DataArray and Dataset method resample now supports the keep_attrs=False option that determines whether variable and dataset attributes are retained in the resampled object. By Jeremy McGibbon.
  • Better multi-index support in DataArray and Dataset sel and loc methods, which now behave more closely to pandas and which also accept dictionaries for indexing based on given level names and labels (see multi-level indexing). By Benoit Bovy.
  • New (experimental) decorators xarray.register_dataset_accessor and xarray.register_dataarray_accessor for registering custom xarray extensions without subclassing. They are described in the new documentation page on internals. By Stephan Hoyer.
  • Round trip boolean datatypes. Previously, writing boolean datatypes to netCDF formats would raise an error since netCDF does not have a bool datatype. This feature reads/writes a dtype attribute to boolean variables in netCDF files. By Joe Hamman.
  • 2D plotting methods now have two new keywords (cbar_ax and cbar_kwargs), allowing more control on the colorbar (#872). By Fabien Maussion.
  • New Dataset method filter_by_attrs, akin to netCDF4.Dataset.get_variables_by_attributes, to easily filter data variables using its attributes. Filipe Fernandes.

Bug fixes

  • Attributes were being retained by default for some resampling operations when they should not. With the keep_attrs=False option, they will no longer be retained by default. This may be backwards-incompatible with some scripts, but the attributes may be kept by adding the keep_attrs=True option. By Jeremy McGibbon.
  • Concatenating xarray objects along an axis with a MultiIndex or PeriodIndex preserves the nature of the index (#875). By Stephan Hoyer.
  • Fixed bug in arithmetic operations on DataArray objects whose dimensions are numpy structured arrays or recarrays #861, #837. By Maciek Swat.
  • decode_cf_timedelta now accepts arrays with ndim >1 (#842). This fixes issue #665. Filipe Fernandes.
  • Fix a bug where xarray.ufuncs that take two arguments would incorrectly use to numpy functions instead of dask.array functions (#876). By Stephan Hoyer.
  • Support for pickling functions from xarray.ufuncs (#901). By Stephan Hoyer.
  • Variable.copy(deep=True) no longer converts MultiIndex into a base Index (#769). By Benoit Bovy.
  • Fixes for groupby on dimensions with a multi-index (#867). By Stephan Hoyer.
  • Fix printing datasets with unicode attributes on Python 2 (#892). By Stephan Hoyer.
  • Fixed incorrect test for dask version (#891). By Stephan Hoyer.
  • Fixed dim argument for isel_points/sel_points when a pandas.Index is passed. By Stephan Hoyer.
  • xarray.plot.contour now plots the correct number of contours (#866). By Fabien Maussion.

  • Add real and imag attributes to Dataset and DataArray (GH553).
  • More informative error message with from_dataframe() if the frame has duplicate columns.
  • xray now uses deterministic names for dask arrays it creates or opens from disk. This allows xray users to take advantage of dask’s nascent support for caching intermediate computation results. See GH555 for an example.
  • Compatibility with Python 3.5 (GH583).
  • Compatibility with pandas 0.17 (GH569).
  • Compatability with numpy 1.10 (GH618).
