Concatenate output snapshots along arbitrary dimension #108

Closed benbovy closed 4 years ago

benbovy commented 4 years ago

This is useful for variables that have a dynamic size (number of array elements) for one of their dimensions (for example, a model that simulates an ensemble made of a variable number of particles).

[ ] Tests added
[ ] Passes black . && flake8
[ ] Fully documented, including whats-new.rst for all changes and api.rst for new API

TODO:

[ ] also add concat_dim to on_demand variable
[ ] get both dims and concat_dim from reference variable in foreign

Closing as #111 + additional xarray methods will do the job (added an example in the documentation).
