class h5netcdf.legacyapi.Variable(parent, name, dimensions=None)

__init__(parent, name, dimensions=None)

Methods

__init__(parent, name[, dimensions])
chunking()	Return variable chunking information.
filters()	Return HDF5 filter parameters dictionary.
getncattr(name)	Retrieve a netCDF4 attribute.
ncattrs()	Return netCDF4 attribute names.
setncattr(name, value)	Set a netCDF4 attribute.

Attributes

attrs	Return variable attributes.
datatype	Return datatype.
dimensions	Return variable dimension names.
dtype	Return netCDF4.Variable numpy dtype.
name	Return variable name.
ndim	Return number of variable dimensions.
shape	Return current sizes of all variable dimensions.

chunking()

Return variable chunking information.

The chunksize is returned as a sequence with the size for each dimension. If the dataset is defined to be contiguous (no chunking) the word ‘contiguous’ is returned.

property dtype

Return netCDF4.Variable numpy dtype.

filters()

Return HDF5 filter parameters dictionary.
