OKCompute

A framework to make analysis stages clear, self documenting, and fault tolerant.

See OKCompute Documentation for details.

Key Features

• Graph of dependencies - Can figure out minimum analysis for set of outputs, or diagnose missing inputs
• Minimum Boilerplate
• Human Readable Reports - Generates HTML documentation implicitly inferred from code and comprehensive reports of what occured during a run
• Support for Pandas dataframes with column validation
• Can specify optional fields or a fallback value if a required field is missing
• Full stack traces are logged in the run results if an exception occurs during analysis
• Supports checking for intermediary results to avoid rerunning slow analysis steps
• Makes writing unit tests extremely easy

TODO

• Make generated documentation prettier
• Better hashing of fields / metrics (avoid collisions based on string names)
• Add way of specifying a list fields with name determined by data (thread names) with sub keys
• Make helper functions to reduce boiler plate in saving / resuming from intermediary processing
• Make reports returned by prune functions more consistent
• Standardize config/input/output conventions
• Should allow metric input/output be dicts?
