kosh 1.1

Machine Learning Data Store

Overview

Kosh allows codes to store, query, share data via an easy-to-use Python API. Kosh lies on top of Sina and as a result can use any database backend supported by Sina.

In addition Kosh aims to make data access and sharing as simple as possible.

Via "loaders" Kosh can open files associated with datasets in a seamless fashion independently of the actual file format. Kosh's loader can also load data in different format, although numpy is the most usual output type.

Getting Started

You will need a Python environment with Sina and networkx installed.

Then simply run:

python setup.py install

Alternatively add the path to this repo to your PYTHONPATH environment variable, or in your code with:

import sys
sys.path.append(path_to_kosh_repo)

For more details look into the installation doc
