Project description
# Zoltpy A python module that interfaces with Zoltar https://github.com/reichlab/forecast-repository
## Installation requirements - [python 3.6](https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-360/) - [pipenv](https://pipenv.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) for managing packages - see Pipfile - [click](https://click.palletsprojects.com/en/7.x/) - for the demo application’s handling of args - [pandas](https://pandas.pydata.org/) - for use of dataframe function - [requests](http://docs.python-requests.org/en/v2.7.0/user/install/) - [numpy](https://pypi.org/project/numpy/)
## Installation Zoltpy is hosted on the Python Package Index (pypi.org), a repository for Python modules https://pypi.org/project/zoltpy/.
Install Zoltpy with the following command: ` pip install zoltpy `
## One-time configuration Users must add their Zoltar username and password to environment variables on their machine before using this module.
### For Mac/Unix ` cd ~ nano .bash_profile ` Add the following to your bash_profile: ` export Z_USERNAME=<your zoltar username> export Z_PASSWORD=<your zoltar password> ` After you are finished, press Ctrl + O, Enter, and Ctrl + X to save and quit.
Then enter the command: ` source ~/.bash_profile ` To ensure your environment variable is configured properly, run this command and check for Z_USERNAME and Z_PASSWORD: ` printenv `
### For PC In the command prompt, run the following commands: ` set Z_USERNAME="<your zoltar username>" set Z_PASSWORD="<your zoltar password>" `
## Usage Zoltpy is a python module that communicates with Zoltar, the Reich Lab’s forecast repository. To import the Zoltpy functions, run the following command after installing the package: ` import zoltpy as zp `
### Zoltpy currently has 5 Key Functions: 1) [print_projects()](#print-project-names) - Print project names 2) [print_models(project_name)](#print-model-names) - Print model names for a specified project 3) [delete_forecast(project_name, model_name, timezero_date)](#delete-forecast) - Deletes a forecast from Zoltar 4) [upload_forecast(project_name, model_name, timezero_date, forecast_csv_file)](#Upload-a-Forecast) - Upload a forecast to Zoltar 5) [forecast_to_dataframe(project_name, model_name, timezero_date)](#Return-Forecast-as-a-Pandas-Dataframe) - Returns forecast as a Pandas Dataframe
#### Print Project Names This fuction returns the project names that you have authorization to view in Zoltar. ` zp.print_projects() `
#### Print Model Names Given a project, this function prints the models in that project. ` zp.print_models(project_name = 'My Project') `
#### Delete a Forecast Deletes a single forecast for a specified model and timezero. ` zp.delete_forecast(project_name='My Project', model_name='My Model', timezero_date='YYYYMMDD') ` Example: ` zp.delete_forecast('Impetus Province Forecasts','gam_lag1_tops3','20181203') `
#### Upload a Forecast ` zp.upload_forecast(project_name='My Project', model_name='My Model', timezero_date='YYYYMMDD', 'C:\\Users\\house\\Desktop\\20181203-gam_lag1_tops3-20190114.csv') `
Example: ` zp.upload_forecast('Impetus Province Forecasts','gam_lag1_tops3','20181203','C:\\Users\\house\\Desktop\\20181203-gam_lag1_tops3-20190114.csv') `
#### Return Forecast as a Pandas Dataframe Example: ` zp.forecast_to_dataframe('Impetus Province Forecasts','gam_lag1_tops3','20181203') `
