User-defined variables

[forman]

Added new dialog to define user variables for a selected dataset. Whenever user variables change, they are stored in the browsers local storage given the selected dataset's identifier and the list of associated user variables.

A user variable can be selected as any other variable. In the list of dataset variables they are marked with a special icon.

User variables should work with all viewer functionality. With a user variable selected, check

• info panel
• time-series panel
• statistics panel
• volume panel

Closes #371

Requires backend implementation xcube-dev/xcube#1021

What does min and max do? Is it the minimal and maximal values along the time axis? I have tried it out in the Viewer, but no data is shown.

True, I also have the same question :)

[ruchimotwaniBC]

Since this variables are user defined and will not be found in the data, should we disable Volume tab for user defined variables or is it that we are explicitly showing this message to user?

Two comments, else its working fine.

I have excluded min / max from the backend. Will do so for UI.

That should be working now.

EDIT

That should be working using xcube-dev/xcube#1032

EDIT

That should be working now using xcube master branch.
