Virtual variables work by using pandas.DatetimeIndex methods, but if you're not using a standard calendar, you end up with an object array of netCDF4.datetime objects instead of an array of numpy.datetime64 objects (which can be turned into a DatetimeIndex). Unfortunately, we do need to be able to make a DatetimeIndex to be able to use its (very quick) calculations for properties like year. The alternative is to write our own implementation, which would likely mean far slower pure-python code. We could also write a function to cast an array into a DatetimeIndex from datetime objects, which I'm guessing would be your preferred solution, even though there are issues like the difference between dates, as DatetimeIndex objects and numpy's datetime64 always assume a standard gregorian calendar. |
