A Grammar of Data Manipulation in python

Documentation | Reference Maps | Notebook Examples | API

datar is a re-imagining of APIs for data manipulation in python with multiple backends supported. Those APIs are aligned with tidyrverse packages in R as much as possible.

Installation

pip install -U datar

# install with a backend
pip install -U datar[pandas]

# More backends support will be added in the future

Backends

Repo	Badges
datar-numpy
datar-pandas

Example usage

# with pandas backend
from datar import f
from datar.dplyr import mutate, filter, if_else
from datar.tibble import tibble
# or
# from datar.all import f, mutate, filter, if_else, tibble

df = tibble(
    x=range(4),  # or c[:4]  (from datar.base import c)
    y=['zero', 'one', 'two', 'three']
)
df >> mutate(z=f.x)
"""# output

# very easy to integrate with other libraries
# for example: klib
import klib
from pipda import register_verb
from datar import f
from datar.data import iris
from datar.dplyr import pull

dist_plot = register_verb(func=klib.dist_plot)
iris >> pull(f.Sepal_Length) >> dist_plot()

Testimonials

@coforfe:

Thanks for your excellent package to port R (dplyr) flow of processing to Python. I have been using other alternatives, and yours is the one that offers the most extensive and equivalent to what is possible now with dplyr.
