pyaxis is a python library for PC-Axis (or PX) formatted data manipulation which allows reading and writing PC-Axis [1] format with python, using the DataFrame structures provided by the widely accepted pandas library [2]. PX is a standard format for statistical files used by a large number of statistical offices (Spain, Switzerland, Sweden). A package of software has been developed for this format: PX-Win, PX-Web and PX-Edit. pyaxis eases reading and parsing of PX files data and metadata into a pandas Dataframe and a dict structure, allowing their manipulation in a tabular and pythonic manner. It supports both monolingual and multilingual PX files. The package was initially developped by the [Instituto Cántabro de Estadistica](https://www.icane.es) and is now jointly maintained by ICANE and the [Swiss Data Science Center](https://datascience.ch). pyaxis is provided under the Apache License 2.0.
Installation
For installation:
pip install pyaxis
Usage
From PX to pandas DataFrame
Typical usage often looks like this:
from pyaxis import pyaxis EXAMPLE_URL = 'https://www.ine.es/jaxiT3/files/t/es/px/2184.px' px = pyaxis.parse(EXAMPLE_URL, encoding='ISO-8859-2') print(px['DATA']) print(px['METADATA'])
For Multilingual PX files
Typical usage often looks like this:
from pyaxis import pyaxis EXAMPLE_URL = 'https://www.pxweb.bfs.admin.ch/DownloadFile.aspx?file=px-x-0602000000_107' # Swiss PX files are in German(de), French(fr), Italian(it), and English(en) px = pyaxis.parse(EXAMPLE_URL, encoding='ISO-8859-2', lang='fr') print(px['DATA']) print(px['METADATA']) print(px['TRANSLATION'])
