r"""
Filter a grid in the space (or time) domain.
Filter a grid file in the time domain using one of the selected convolution
or non-convolution isotropic or rectangular filters and compute distances
using Cartesian or Spherical geometries. The output grid file can
optionally be generated as a sub-region of the input (via ``region``)
and/or with new increment (via ``spacing``) or registration
(via ``toggle``). In this way, one may have "extra space" in the input
data so that the edges will not be used and the output can be within one
half-width of the input edges. If the filter is low-pass, then the output
may be less frequently sampled than the input.

Parameters
----------
grid : str or xarray.DataArray
The file name of the input grid or the grid loaded as a DataArray.
outgrid : str or None
The name of the output netCDF file with extension .nc to store the grid
in.
filter : str
**b**\|\ **c**\|\ **g**\|\ **o**\|\ **m**\|\ **p**\|\ **h**\ *xwidth*\
[/*width2*\][*modifiers*].
Name of filter type you which to apply, followed by the width:
b: Box Car
c: Cosine Arch
g: Gaussian
o: Operator
m: Median
p: Maximum Likelihood probability
h: histogram
distance : str
Distance *flag* tells how grid (x,y) relates to filter width as
follows:
p: grid (px,py) with *width* an odd number of pixels; Cartesian
distances.
0: grid (x,y) same units as *width*, Cartesian distances.
1: grid (x,y) in degrees, *width* in kilometers, Cartesian distances.
2: grid (x,y) in degrees, *width* in km, dx scaled by cos(middle y),
Cartesian distances.
The above options are fastest because they allow weight matrix to be
computed only once. The next three options are slower because they
recompute weights for each latitude.
3: grid (x,y) in degrees, *width* in km, dx scaled by cosine(y),
Cartesian distance calculation.
4: grid (x,y) in degrees, *width* in km, Spherical distance
calculation.
5: grid (x,y) in Mercator ``projection='m1'`` img units, *width* in km,
Spherical distance calculation.
spacing : str
*xinc*\[\ *unit*\][**+e**\|\ **n**]
[/*yinc*\ [*unit*][**+e**\|\ **n**]].
*xinc* [and optionally *yinc*] is the grid spacing.
nans : str or float
**i**\|\ **p**\|\ **r**.
Determine how NaN-values in the input grid affects the filtered output.
{R}
toggle : bool
Toggle the node registration for the output grid so as to become the
opposite of the input grid. [Default gives the same registration as the
input grid].
{V}
Returns
-------
ret: xarray.DataArray or None
Return type depends on whether the ``outgrid`` parameter is set:
- :class:`xarray.DataArray` if ``outgrid`` is not set
- None if ``outgrid`` is set (grid output will be stored in file set by
``outgrid``)
Examples
--------
>>> import os
>>> import pygmt
>>> # Apply a filter of 600km (full width) to the @earth_relief_30m file
>>> # and return a filtered field (saved as netcdf)
>>> pygmt.grdfilter(
... grid="@earth_relief_30m",
... filter="m600",
... distance="4",
... region=[150, 250, 10, 40],
... spacing=0.5,
... outgrid="filtered_pacific.nc",
... )
>>> os.remove("filtered_pacific.nc") # cleanup file
>>> # Apply a gaussian smoothing filter of 600 km in the input data array,
>>> # and returns a filtered data array with the smoothed field.
>>> grid = pygmt.datasets.load_earth_relief()
>>> smooth_field = pygmt.grdfilter(grid=grid, filter="g600", distance="4")
