doltcli 0.2.2

Slim Python interface for Dolt's CLI API.

DoltCLI

This is a minimalist package intended for data engineering applications:

• unzipped size ~100kb
• one dependency -- Dolt binary
• only changes when Dolt changes

If you are a data scientist or are using Pandas there are three options:

• Use doltpy
• Use pandas.sql with dolt sql-server
• Manually convert the doltcli return types to DataFrames with pd.Dataframe.from_records(...) or another DataFrame instantiate of choice.

Note: doltcli is in development. The interface does not completely wrap Dolt CLI yet, and may have function signature changes in the short-term. Reach out to the team on our discord if you have questions regarding production use-cases.

Dev Setup

• clone repo
• Python 3.6+ required
• Install Dolt binary. Currently recommended version is 1.16.0.
• Install Poetry
