# How to use `cf-pandas` | ||
|
||
The main use of `cf-pandas` currently is for selecting a variable from a `pandas DataFrame` using the accessor and a custom vocabulary that searches column names for a match to the regular expressions. There are several class and utilities that support this functionality that are used internally but are also helpful for other packages. | ||
|
||
```{code-cell} ipython3 | ||
import cf_pandas as cfp | ||
import pandas as pd | ||
``` | ||
|
||
## Select variable | ||
|
||
+++ | ||
|
||
### Create custom vocabulary | ||
|
||
More information about custom vocabularies and using the `Vocab` class here: https://cf-pandas.readthedocs.io/en/latest/demo_vocab.html | ||
|
||
You can make regular expressions for your vocabulary by hand or use the `Reg` class in `cf-pandas` to do so. | ||
|
||
```{code-cell} ipython3 | ||
# initialize class | ||
vocab = cfp.Vocab() | ||
# define a regular expression to represent your variable | ||
reg = cfp.Reg(include="salinity", exclude="soil", exclude_end="_qc") | ||
# Make an entry to add to your vocabulary | ||
vocab.make_entry("salt", reg.pattern(), attr="standard_name") | ||
vocab | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### Get some data | ||
|
||
```{code-cell} ipython3 | ||
# Some data | ||
url = "https://files.stage.platforms.axds.co/axiom/netcdf_harvest/basis/2013/BE2013_/data.csv.gz" | ||
df = pd.read_csv(url) | ||
df | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### Access variable | ||
|
||
Refer to the column of data you want by the nickname described in your custom vocabulary. | ||
|
||
You can do this with a context manager, especially if you are using more than one vocabulary: | ||
|
||
```{code-cell} ipython3 | ||
with cfp.set_options(custom_criteria=vocab.vocab): | ||
print(df.cf["salt"]) | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Or you can set one for use generally in this kernel: | ||
|
||
```{code-cell} ipython3 | ||
cfp.set_options(custom_criteria=vocab.vocab) | ||
df.cf["salt"] | ||
``` | ||
|
||
## Other utilities | ||
|
||
+++ | ||
|
||
### Access all CF Standard Names | ||
|
||
```{code-cell} ipython3 | ||
sn = cfp.standard_names() | ||
sn[:5] | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### Use vocabulary to match any list | ||
|
||
This is the logic under the hood of the `cf-pandas` accessor that selects what column matches a variable nickname according to the custom vocabulary. This comes from `cf-xarray` almost exactly. It is available as a separate function because it is useful to use in other scenarios too. Here we filter the standard names just found by our custom vocabulary from above. | ||
|
||
```{code-cell} ipython3 | ||
cfp.match_criteria_key(sn, "salt", vocab.vocab) | ||
``` |
