not_single_element_dims

not_single_element_dims(data_array: xr.DataArray) → list[Hashable]

Names of dimensions in data which don’t have a size equal to one.

This helper function is for example used to determine if a data only have a single trace, since this requires different plotting code (e.g. data_array.plot.line(x="time")).

Parameters:

data_array (xr.DataArray) – DataArray to check if it has only a single dimension.

Returns:

Names of dimensions in data which don’t have a size equal to one.

Return type:

list[Hashable]
