What happened?

I am trying to drop_duplicates from a DataArray based on the values of some of the coordinates, starting from a DataArray with coordinates, but no indexes.

To accomplish this, I call 'DataArray.set_xindex' with the appropriate coordinate names, and then call 'drop_duplicates' on the resulting DataArray, like so:   ```python from xarray import DataArray import numpy as np

test_array = DataArray( np.random.rand(5), coords=dict(x=("sample", [1, 2, 1, 2, 1]), y=("sample", [-1] * 5)), dims="sample", )

output DataArray's 'sample' dimension has length 2, as expected

good = test_array.set_xindex(["x", "y"]).drop_duplicates("sample") assert len(good) == 2 ```

The above functions as expected; 'good' has had its duplicates dropped, and we are left with a DataArray of length 2.

However, the following does not function as I would expect:

```python

All the 'y's are '-1', so we expect the same duplicates as before to be dropped,

even if we don't include the 'y' values in the index.

bad = test_array.set_xindex("x").drop_duplicates("sample")

But this assert fails! 'drop_duplicates' does not drop anything

assert not bad.equals(test_array) ```

What did you expect to happen?

I expected drop_duplicates to drop the duplicates when I was using only a single coordinate for the index.

Minimal Complete Verifiable Example

```Python from xarray import DataArray import numpy as np

test_array = DataArray( range(5), coords=dict(x=("sample", [1, 2, 1, 2, 1]), y=("sample", [-1] * 5)), dims="sample", )

output DataArray's 'sample' dimension has length 2, as expected

good = test_array.set_xindex(["x", "y"]).drop_duplicates("sample")

And indeed there are only 2 elements left after dropping duplicates.

assert len(good) == 2

All the 'y's are '-1', so we expect the same duplicates as before to be dropped,

bad = test_array.drop_vars("y").set_xindex("x").drop_duplicates("sample")

But this assert fails! 'drop_duplicates' does not drop anything

assert not bad.equals(test_array.drop_vars("y")) ```

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, returning the result.
  • [X] New issue — a search of GitHub Issues suggests this is not a duplicate.
  • [X] Recent environment — the issue occurs with the latest version of xarray and its dependencies.
