quilt3distribute

People commonly work with tabular datasets, people want to share their data, this makes that easier through Quilt3.

Features

• Automatically determines which files to upload based off CSV headers. (Explicit override available)
• Simple interface for attaching metadata to each file based off the manifest contents.
• Groups metadata for files that are referenced multiple times.
• Validates and runs basic cleaning operations on your dataset manifest CSV.
• Optionally add license details and usage instructions to your dataset README.
• Parses README for any referenced files and packages them up as well.
• Support for adding extra files not contained in the manifest.
• Constructs an "associates" map that is placed into each files metadata for quick navigation around the package.
• Enforces that the metadata attached to each file is standardized across the package for each file column.

Quick Start

Construct a csv (or pandas dataframe) dataset manifest (Example):

from quilt3distribute import Dataset

# Create the dataset
ds = Dataset(
    dataset="single_cell_examples.csv",
    name="single_cell_examples",
    package_owner="jacksonb",
    readme_path="single_cell_examples.md"
)

# Optionally add common additional requirements
ds.add_usage_doc("https://docs.quiltdata.com/walkthrough/reading-from-a-package")
ds.add_license("https://www.allencell.org/terms-of-use.html")

# Optionally indicate column values to use for file metadata
ds.set_metadata_columns(["CellId", "Structure"])

# Optionally rename the columns on the package level
ds.set_column_names_map({
    "2dReadPath": "images_2d",
    "3dReadPath": "images_3d"
})

# Distribute
pkg = ds.distribute(push_uri="s3://quilt-jacksonb", message="Initial dataset example")

Returns:
