DataSet File Format 
Store a dataset in XSLX-like format.
This library contains code for handling the DataSet File Format (DSFF) based on the XSLX format and for converting it to ARFF (for use with the Weka framework), CSV or a FilelessDataset structure (from the Packing Box).
pip install --user dsff
Usage
Creating a DSFF from a FilelessDataset
>>> import dsff
>>> with dsff.DSFF() as f:
f.write("/path/to/my-dataset") # folder of a FilelessDataset (containing data.csv, features.json and metadata.json)
f.to_arff() # creates ./my-dataset.arff
f.to_csv() # creates ./my-dataset.csv
f.to_db() # creates ./my-dataset.db (SQLite DB)
# while leaving the context, ./my-dataset.dsff is created
Creating a FilelessDataset from a DSFF
>>> import dsff
>>> with dsff.DSFF("/path/to/my-dataset.dsff") as f:
f.to_dataset() # creates ./my-dataset with data.csv, features.json and metadata.json
**
Extensions
Install all available extensions
pip install --user dsff[all]
Dealing with Apache Arrow formats
pip install --user dsff[arrow]
>>> import dsff
>>> with dsff.DSFF("/path/to/my-dataset.dsff") as f:
f.to_feather() # creates ./my-dataset.feather
f.to_orc() # creates ./my-dataset.orc
f.to_parquet() # creates ./my-dataset.parquet
