Configuration

Configuration#

Xarray offers a small number of configuration options through set_options(). With these, you can

  1. Control the repr:

    • display_expand_attrs

    • display_expand_coords

    • display_expand_data

    • display_expand_data_vars

    • display_max_rows

    • display_style

  2. Control behaviour during operations: arithmetic_join, keep_attrs, use_bottleneck.

  3. Control colormaps for plots:cmap_divergent, cmap_sequential.

  4. Aspects of file reading: file_cache_maxsize, warn_on_unclosed_files.

You can set these options either globally

xr.set_options(arithmetic_join="exact")

or locally as a context manager:

with xr.set_options(arithmetic_join="exact"):
    # do operation here
    pass
