[docs]def generate_file_name(cube, parameter=None, include_period=False): """ From a forecast cube, generate an IMPROVER-suitable file name using the correct lead time. Based on existing StaGE functionality. Requires a "time" coordinate. If the cube has no "forecast_period" coordinate (for example if the input is a radar composite or other observation), this function creates a dummy string representing a forecast period of zero. The filename generated will be of the format: 20180806T2300Z-PT0012H00M-lwe_precip_rate.nc. If a period is included, the filename will become: 20180806T2300Z-PT0012H00M-lwe_precip_accumulation-PT03H.nc Args: cube (iris.cube.Cube): Cube containing nowcast data parameter (str): Optional parameter name to use in the output filename rather than taking the name of the cube diagnostic. include_period (bool): Optional argument to indicate whether a period, accumulation or time window identifier should be included within the filename. Returns: str: File base name to which to write Raises: ValueError: In order to calculate the period, either the forecast_period or the time coordinate must have bounds.
