snorkel-lite 0.0.5

a data exploration UI

## snorkel.lite

snorkel.lite is a re-implementation of [snorkel](https://github.com/logv/snorkel) in python

### installation

` git clone --single-branch -b slite [e-mail]:logv/snorkel.git slite cd slite make setup make run `

### configuration

see docs/SETUP.md

### status

Feb 2nd 2019

snorkel.lite is now in Alpha status. All but two views (digraph and map view) have been ported over from snorkel, data ingestion works and grafana endpoints are compatible. I have switched over from using the original snorkel to using snorkel.lite since November of 2018.

### motivation

the reasons for moving to python are severalfold:

• nodejs apps are annoying to maintain and deploy, as there is too much churn in the nodejs ecosystem

• backend devs don’t like writing javascript, but don’t seem to mind writing python

• writing an app just for sybil lets us move past old baggage of supporting mongodb and postgres

### goals

• write an easy to deploy UI for browsing data kept in sybil

• make it easy to extend and write new views

• make an app that is easy to white label (and self host inside organizations)

• re-use as much work from original snorkel while keeping the implementation clean

• minimize external dependencies: use sqlite for data store, flask for web, etc
