Web Client for Visualizing Pandas Objects
Project description
What is it?
D-Tale is the combination of a Flask back-end and a React front-end to bring you an easy way to view & analyze Pandas data structures. It integrates seamlessly with ipython notebooks & python/ipython terminals. Currently this tool supports such Pandas objects as DataFrame, Series, MultiIndex, DatetimeIndex & RangeIndex.
Origins
D-Tale was the product of a SAS to Python conversion. What was originally a perl script wrapper on top of SAS’s insight function is now a lightweight web client on top of Pandas data structures.

Additional functions available programmatically
import dtale
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame([dict(a=1,b=2,c=3)])
# Assigning a reference to a running D-Tale process
d = dtale.show(df)
# Accessing data associated with D-Tale process
tmp = d.data.copy()
tmp['d'] = 4
# Altering data associated with D-Tale process
# FYI: this will clear any front-end settings you have at the time for this process (filter, sorts, formatting)
d.data = tmp
# Shutting down D-Tale process
d.kill()
# using Python's `webbrowser` package it will try and open your server's default browser to this process
d.open_browser()
# There is also some helpful metadata about the process
d._data_id # the process's data identifier
d._url # the url to access the process
d2 = dtale.get_instance(d._data_id) # returns a new reference to the instance running at that data_id
dtale.instances() # prints a list of all ids & urls of running D-Tale sessions
