xarray_extras: Advanced algorithms for xarray

This module offers several extensions to xarray, which could not be included into the main module because they fall into one or more of the following categories:

• They're too experimental
• They're too niche
• They introduce major new dependencies (e.g. numba or a C compiler)
• They would be better done by doing major rework on multiple packages, and then one would need to wait for said changes to reach a stable release of each package - in the right order.

The API of xarray-extras is unstable by definition, as features will be progressively migrated upwards towards xarray, dask, numpy, pandas, etc.

Features

api/csv

Multi-threaded CSV writer, much faster than pandas.DataFrame.to_csv, with full support for dask and dask distributed.

api/cumulatives

Advanced cumulative sum/productory/mean functions

api/interpolate

dask-optimized n-dimensional spline interpolation

api/numba_extras

Additions to numba

api/sort

Advanced sort/take functions

api/stack

Tools for stacking/unstacking dimensions
