hazard-map 0.1.5

Build and analyze a network model of hazards, causes, and controls

hazard-map

Build a network model from spreadsheets of hazard, cause, and control mappings and carry out useful analyses.

Overview

This is a simple command-line tool that takes an Excel workbook with tables of mappings and creates a network model to use for analyses and visualization.

Installation

Install the command-line application from PyPI with pip:

pip install hazard-map

Usage

Use the -h flag to see the available options:

hazard-map -h

usage: hazard-map [-h] [-o OUTPUT_DIRECTORY] [-d PLOT_DPI] [-j | --output-json | --no-output-json] input_workbook

Build and analyze a network model of hazards, causes, and controls

positional arguments:
  input_workbook        The hazard mapping excel file to evaluate

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -o OUTPUT_DIRECTORY, --output-directory OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
                        Set a directory for the script to save its outputs to
  -d PLOT_DPI, --plot-dpi PLOT_DPI
                        Set a custom DPI (quality) for the plot output
  -j, --output-json, --no-output-json
                        Save a json description of the mappings alongside the hazard log

Pass an Excel workbook (xlsx) file with hazard-cause and cause-control mappings (indicated by a "Y" at the intersection of row/column pair that map onto one-another) in worksheets named "HazardCause Mapping" and "CauseControl Mapping" respectively:

hazard-map our_mappings.xlsx

See the test mappings for an example of a compatible document.

Development

If you want to develop this project further or just set it up so you can modify the source code (to work with a different matrix format, for example), clone this repo:

git clone https://gitlab.com/thom-cameron/hazard-map
cd hazard-map

Packaging and dependency management for this project are handled by poetry. Install poetry, or, if you use nix, start up a shell with everything you need:

nix-shell

Then, get the code running:

# install dependencies
poetry install

# run the test suite
poetry run pytest

# run the application
poetry run hazard-map

# or enter an interactive shell in a properly configured virtual environment
poetry run python
