Alpha release of ayx-learn.

[](https://github.com/ambv/black)

# ayx-learn

A foundation of [scikit-learn](https://scikit-learn.org/stable/) compatible data science tools, such as Transformers, that both Alteryx Assisted Modeling and Code Fee Tools are built on.

## Source code organization

` . ├── README.md ├── ayx_learn: Source code for the ayx_learn package. │   ├── cmd: CLI commands that enable transformers and other functions to be used directly from the command-line. │   ├── transformers: Transformer source code. │   └── utils: Utility functions, such as validation. ├── docs: Sphinx documentation. ├── examples: CLI examples that use ayx_learn/cmd and DVC. ├── notebooks: Jupyter notebooks. ├── requirements-dev.txt: Requirements for development env. ├── requirements.txt: Requirements for building and running in a production env. ├── setup.py ├── tests │   └── unit: pytest unit tests. └── tox.ini: Ini file for tox. `

## Code standards

ayx-learn follows the [Alteryx Python Code Standards](https://alteryx.quip.com/qR3kAG4OA32X/Python-Code-Standards)

## Error handling and Logging

Errors/exceptions in ayx-learn follow the Message and Raise and Transformer patterns described in the blog at [Exceptional logging of exceptions in Python](https://www.loggly.com/blog/exceptional-logging-of-exceptions-in-python/).

Following the recommendations at, [Configuring Logging for a Library](https://docs.python.org/3/howto/logging.html#configuring-logging-for-a-library), a NullHandler has been initialized at ayx_learn module scope. Clients of ayx-learn can easily provide a logging handler that will override the NullHandler by initializing a handler in the client. E.g.

` import logging logging.basicConfig(filename='example.log',level=logging.DEBUG) `

## Testing

Unit tests are written using [pytest](https://docs.pytest.org/) and are located in ./tests/unit.

[tox](https://tox.readthedocs.io/) can be used for creating a virtualenv and automatically running the pytest unit tests.

## Examples

A set of CLI examples based on ayx_learn/cmd that use [DVC](https://dvc.org/) for managing data, creating, and running pipelines.

Usage

` cd examples/titanic dvc pull dvc repro step_2.csv.dvc `

To clean-up data files

` dvc remove -o *.dvc `

## Documentation

ayx-learn follows the [Alteryx Python Documentation Standards](https://alteryx.quip.com/bFgiAZThHaJv/Python-Documentation-Standards).
