ssb-fagfunksjoner 1.0.0

Fellesfunksjoner for ssb i Python

SSB Fag-fellesfunksjoner i Python

A place for "loose, small functionality" produced at Statistics Norway in Python. Functionality might start here, if it is to be used widely within the organization, but later be moved to bigger packages if they "grow out of proportions".

Team: ssb-pythonistas

We are a team of statisticians which hope to curate and generalize functionality which arizes from specific needs in specific production-environments. We try to take responsibility for this functionality to be generalized and available to all of statistics Norway through this package.

Installing

poetry add ssb-fagfunksjoner

Usage

Check if you are on Dapla or in prodsone.

from fagfunksjoner import check_env


check_env()

Navigate to the root of your project and back again. Do stuff while in root, like importing local functions.

from fagfunksjoner import ProjectRoot


with ProjectRoot():
    ... # Do your local imports here...

Setting up password with saspy

from fagfunksjoner.prodsone import saspy_ssb


saspy_ssb.set_password() # Follow the instructions to set the password
saspy_ssb.saspy_df_from_path("path")

Aggregate on all combinations of codes in certain columns (maybe before sending to statbank? Like proc means?)

from fagfunksjoner import all_combos_agg


ialt_koder = {
"skolefylk": "01-99",
"almyrk": "00",
"kjoenn_t": "0",
"sluttkomp": "00",
}
kolonner = list(ialt_koder.keys())
tab = all_combos_agg(vgogjen,
                     groupcols=kolonner,
                     aggargs={'antall': sum},
                     fillna_dict=ialt_koder)

Opening archive-files based on Datadok-api in prodsone

We have "flat files", which are not comma seperated. These need metadata to correctly open. In SAS we do this with "lastescript". But there is an API to old Datadok in prodsone, so these functions let you just specify a path, and attempt to open the flat files directly into pandas, with the metadata also available.

from fagfunksjoner import open_path_datadok


archive_object = open_path_datadok("$TBF/project/arkiv/filename/g2022g2023")
# The object now has several important attributes
archive_object.df  # The Dataframe of the archived data
archive_object.metadata_df  # Dataframe representing metadata
archive_object.codelist_df  # Dataframe representing codelists
archive_object.codelist_dict  # Dict of codelists
archive_object.names  # Column names in the archived data
archive_object.datatypes  # The datatypes the archivdata ended up having?
archive_object.widths  # Width of each column in the flat file

Operation to Oracle database

Remember that any credidential values to the database should not be stored in our code. Possibly use python-dotenv package to make this easier.

Example for a normal select query where we expect not too many records:

import os

import pandas as pd
from doteng import load_dotenv

from fagfunksjoner.prodsone import Oracle


load_dotenv()

query = "select vare, pris from my_db_table"

ora = Oracle(pw=os.getenv("my-secret-password"),
             db=os.getenv("database-name"))

df = pd.DataFrame(ora.select(sql=query))

ora.close()

Example for a select query where possibly many records:

import os

import pandas as pd
from doteng import load_dotenv

from fagfunksjoner.prodsone import Oracle


load_dotenv()

query = "select vare, pris from my_db_table"

ora = Oracle(pw=os.getenv("my-secret-password"),
             db=os.getenv("database-name"))

df = pd.DataFrame(ora.selectmany(sql=query, batchsize=10000))

ora.close()

Example for inserting new records into database(note that ordering of the columns in sql query statement and data are important):

import os

import pandas as pd
from doteng import load_dotenv

from fagfunksjoner.prodsone import Oracle


load_dotenv()

df = pd.DataFrame(
    {
        "vare": ["banan", "eple"],
        "pris": [11, 10]
    }
)

data = list(df.itertuples(index=False, name=None))

query = "insert into my_db_table(vare, pris) values(:vare, :pris)"

ora = Oracle(pw=os.getenv("my-secret-password"),
             db=os.getenv("database-name"))

ora.insert_or_update(sql=query, update=data)

ora.close()

Example for updating records in the database(note that ordering of the columns in sql query statement and data are important. It is also important that the query doesn't update other records than it should. Having some kind of ID to the records will be very usefull!):

import os
import pandas as pd
from doteng import load_dotenv
from fagfunksjoner.prodsone import Oracle
load_dotenv()

df = pd.DataFrame(
    {
        "id": ["12345", "54321"]
        "vare": ["banan", "eple"],
        "pris": [11, 10]
    }
)

data = list(df[["vare", "pris", "id"]].itertuples(index=False, name=None))

query = "update my_db_table set vare = :vare, pris = :pris where id = :id"

ora = Oracle(pw=os.getenv("my-secret-password"),
             db=os.getenv("database-name"))

ora.insert_or_update(sql=query, update=data)

ora.close()

It also support context manager. This is handy when working with big data, and you then have to work more lazy. Or you want to do multiple operations to several tables without closing the connections. Or any other reasons... An easy case; reading large data from database and write it to a parquet file, in batches:

import os
import pandas as pd
import pyarrow as pa
import pyarrow.parquet as pq
from doteng import load_dotenv
from fagfunksjoner.prodsone import Oracle, OraError
load_dotenv()

select_query = "select vare, pris from my_db_table"
parquet_write_path = "write/to/path/datafile.parquet"

with pq.ParquetWriter(parquet_write_path) as pqwriter: # pyarrow schema might be needed
    try:
        # will go straight to cursor
        with Oracle(pw=os.getenv("my-secret-password"),
                db=os.getenv("database-name")) as concur:
            concur.execute(select_query)
            cols = [c[0].lower() for c in cur.description]
            while True:
                rows = cur.fetchmany(10_000) # 10.000 rows per batch
                if not rows:
                    break
                else:
                    data = [dict(zip(cols, row)) for row in rows]
                    tab = pa.Table.from_pylist(data)
                    # this will write data to one row group per batch
                    pqwriter.write_table(tab)
    except OraError as error:
        raise error
