cf.Domain.item

Domain.item(items=None, key=False, **kwargs)[source]

Return an item of the domain, or its domain identifier.

This method has exactly the same interface, functionality and outputs as cf.Field.item. Therefore see cf.Field.item for the full documentation details.

The following examples are base on the following domain:

>>> d.items()
{'dim0': <CF DimensionCoordinate: grid_latitude(73)
 'dim1': <CF DimensionCoordinate: grid_longitude(96)>,
 'dim2': <CF DimensionCoordinate: time(12)>,
 'aux0': <CF AuxiliaryCoordinate: latitude(73, 96)>,
 'aux1': <CF AuxiliaryCoordinate: longitude(73, 96)>,
 'msr0':  <CF CellMeasure: area(96, 73)>,
 'ref0': <CF CoordinateReference: rotated_latitude_longitude>}

>>> d.item('longitude')
<CF DimensionCoordinate: longitude(360)>
>>> d.item('long')
<CF DimensionCoordinate: longitude(360)>
>>> d.item('long', key=True)
'dim2'

>>> d.item('lon', exact=True)
None
>>> d.item('longitude', exact=True)
<CF DimensionCoordinate: longitude(360)>

>>> d.item('msr0')
<CF CellMeasure: area(96, 73)>

>>> d.item({'units': 'degrees'})
None
>>> d.item({'units': 'degreeN'})
<CF AuxiliaryCoordinate: latitude(73, 96)>

>>> d.item(axes='time')
<CF DimensionCoordinate: time(12)>
>>> d.item(axes='grid_latitude')
None
>>> d.item(axes='grid_latitude', strict_axes=True)
<CF DimensionCoordinate: grid_latitude(73)
>>> d.item(axes='grid_longitude', ndim=1, key=True)
'dim1'
