Since #7561 with xarray-2023.5.0, the new grouper object raises an unexpected exception with an IndexVariable. ### What did you expect to happen? With xarray-2023.3.0 there was no issue, the grouper operation returned a new DataArray object. ### Minimal Complete Verifiable Example ```Python import numpy as np import pandas as pd import xarray as xr da = xr.DataArray( np.linspace(0, 1826, num=1827), coords=[pd.date_range(""2000-01-01"", ""2004-12-31"", freq=""D"")], dims=""time"", ) iv = xr.IndexVariable(dims=(""time"",), data=pd.Index(da.time.dt.year)) # This is where the exception is raised m = da.groupby(iv).mean() print(m) ``` ### MVCE confirmation - [X] Minimal example — the example is as focused as reasonably possible to demonstrate the underlying issue in xarray. - [X] Complete example — the example is self-contained, including all data and the text of any traceback. - [X] Verifiable example — the example copy & pastes into an IPython prompt or [Binder notebook](https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/pydata/xarray/main?urlpath=lab/tree/doc/examples/blank_template.ipynb), returning the result. - [X] New issue — a search of GitHub Issues suggests this is not a duplicate. ### Relevant log output ```Python --------------------------------------------------------------------------- UnboundLocalError Traceback (most recent call last) Cell In[1], line 13 10 iv = xr.IndexVariable(dims=(""time"",), data=pd.Index(da.time.dt.year)) 12 # This is where the exception is raised ---> 13 m = da.groupby(iv).mean() 14 print(m) File /tmp/py310/lib/python3.10/site-packages/xarray/core/dataarray.py:6503, in DataArray.groupby(self, group, squeeze, restore_coord_dims) 6495 from xarray.core.groupby import ( 6496 DataArrayGroupBy, 6497 ResolvedUniqueGrouper, 6498 UniqueGrouper, 6499 _validate_groupby_squeeze, 6500 ) 6502 _validate_groupby_squeeze(squeeze) -> 6503 rgrouper = ResolvedUniqueGrouper(UniqueGrouper(), group, self) 6504 return DataArrayGroupBy( 6505 self, 6506 (rgrouper,), 6507 squeeze=squeeze, 6508 restore_coord_dims=restore_coord_dims, 6509 ) File :6, in __init__(self, grouper, group, obj) File /tmp/py310/lib/python3.10/site-packages/xarray/core/groupby.py:335, in ResolvedGrouper.__post_init__(self) 334 def __post_init__(self) -> None: --> 335 self.group: T_Group = _resolve_group(self.obj, self.group) 337 ( 338 self.group1d, 339 self.stacked_obj, 340 self.stacked_dim, 341 self.inserted_dims, 342 ) = _ensure_1d(group=self.group, obj=self.obj) File /tmp/py310/lib/python3.10/site-packages/xarray/core/groupby.py:640, in _resolve_group(obj, group) 637 else: 638 newgroup = group --> 640 if newgroup.size == 0: 641 raise ValueError(f""{newgroup.name} must not be empty"") 643 return newgroup UnboundLocalError: local variable 'newgroup' referenced before assignment ``` ### Anything else we need to know? With xarray-2023.3.0 the output for the example is: ``` array([ 182.5, 548. , 913. , 1278. , 1643.5]) Coordinates: * time (time) int64 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 ``` ### Environment
