One minor correction though, because I found that it fails to infer the period if none is given. The divide should be a multiplication I believe, i.e.

```python
import xarray
import numpy as np

def add_cyclic_point(xarray_obj, dim, period=None):
  if period is None:
    period = xarray_obj.sizes[dim] * xarray_obj.coords[dim][:2].diff(dim).item()
  first_point = xarray_obj.isel({dim: slice(1)})
  first_point.coords[dim] = first_point.coords[dim]+period
  return xarray.concat([xarray_obj, first_point], dim=dim)

```python
import xarray
import numpy as np

def add_cyclic_point(xarray_obj, dim, period=None):
  if period is None:
    period = xarray_obj.sizes[dim] / xarray_obj.coords[dim][:2].diff(dim).item()
  first_point = xarray_obj.isel({dim: slice(1)})
  first_point.coords[dim] = first_point.coords[dim]+period
  return xarray.concat([xarray_obj, first_point], dim=dim)
```

Example usage:
```
>>> ds = xarray.Dataset({'foo': ('x', np.arange(10))}, {'x': np.arange(10)})
>>> add_cyclic_point(ds, dim='x', period=10)
<xarray.Dataset>
Dimensions:  (x: 11)
Coordinates:
  * x        (x) int64 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Data variables:
    foo      (x) int64 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0
```

It would also make sense to add a more generic `.pad()` method, which this function would be a special case of (if `mode='wrap'`).","{""total_count"": 1, ""+1"": 1, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,177484162

It would be great if `add_cyclic_point` could be applied to all variables automatically. 

Just for other peoples reference, I now have this workaround, creating `erai_jja_cy` a 'cyclic' version of `erai_jja`:
```python
dd, ll = add_cyclic_point(erai_jja.values, erai_jja.lon)
erai_jja_cy = xr.DataArray(dd, coords={'lat':erai_jja.lat, 'lon':ll}, dims=('lat','lon'))

Yes, that would be my suggested approach.

This would be a good use case for `xarray.apply` (#964).
