Dara Application Framework
Build decision apps in Python
Tap into the power of causality by transforming data into interactive graphs and applications
Dara is a dynamic application framework designed for creating interactive web apps with ease, all in pure Python. Over the past two years, Dara has fueled the development of hundreds of apps, now widely used and appreciated by both our customers and our in-house teams!
Quickstart
To get started with Dara, you can use the create-dara-app CLI tool to create a new app.
pip install create-dara-app
You can also use pipx to install the CLI tool in an isolated environment.
Then simply run the following command to create a new app.
create-dara-app
By default the CLI will attempt to scaffold your project with poetry but will fall back to pip if poetry is not present. This can be overriden with --packaging pip or --packaging poetry flag.
After the project is created, you can run it with:
cd my-dara-app
# with poetry installation
poetry run dara start
# with pip installation make sure to activate the new virtual environment
source .venv/bin/activate
dara start
Note: pip installation uses PEP 660 pyproject.toml-based editable installs which require pip >= 21.3 and setuptools >= 64.0.0. You can upgrade both with:
python -m pip install --upgrade pip
pip install --user --upgrade setuptools
