https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/6680#issuecomment-1183534601,https://api.github.com/repos/pydata/xarray/issues/6680,1183534601,IC_kwDOAMm_X85Gi04J,4502,2022-07-13T18:17:05Z,2022-07-13T18:17:05Z,NONE,"Thanks, that looks interesting, although sounds like it's addressing a slightly different problem; I'm not so much interested in validation of external inputs, more just in having some basic datatypes that can be used to specify dims/shape/coords as templates for DataArray / Datasets internally within my codebase.

Some things I'm looking for but don't appear to be supported:
* Support for specifying coords
* `__hash__`, `__eq__` etc for the Schema objects
* Convenient APIs to alter and combine these Schemas in similar ways to what can be done with DataArray / Datasets themselves, e.g. adding/removing dimensions, broadcasting against eachother etc -- perhaps mirroring APIs like expand_dims that can be used on DataArray / Dataset themself, to the extent this makes sense.

Feels to me that it would make sense to have these basic datatypes inside xarray, perhaps with something like xarray-schema providing extra validation helpers etc on top of them? But just my 2 cents :)","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,1266308714
