  • Remove duplicates
  • Fill missing values with mean, median, or custom strategies
  • Standardize string columns (trim, lowercase)
  • Email validation

• Data Transformation

  • Normalize numeric columns
  • Encode categorical variables

• Validation

  • Check for missing values, duplicates, and column types

• Pipeline Support

  • Run cleaning, transformation, and validation in a single workflow

Usage

import pandas as pd
from data_doctor.cleaner import DataCleaner
from data_doctor.pipeline import DataPipeline

# Example DataFrame
df = pd.DataFrame({
    "name": ["Alice", "Bob", None, "Charlie"],
    "age": [25, None, 30, 22],
    "email": ["[e-mail]", "[e-mail]", "invalid_email", None]
})

# Using DataCleaner
cleaner = DataCleaner(df.copy())
df_cleaned = (cleaner
              .drop_duplicates()
              .fill_missing(strategy="mean")
              .standardize_strings()
              .run_email_validation("email")
              .get_df())

# Using DataPipeline
pipeline = DataPipeline(df.copy())
df_pipeline = (pipeline
               .run_basic_cleaning()
               .run_transformations())
validation_report = pipeline.validate()

print(df_pipeline)
print(validation_report)
