eseas

eseas is a Python package that acts as a wrapper for the jwsacruncher Java package. This tool allows users to process Demetra workspace XML files, create batch files, execute them, and collect the desired outputs into individual Excel files.

Installation

eseas

You can install the eseas package via pip:

pip install eseas

Alternatively, you can install it from a local wheel file:

pip install ./eseas-0.1.0-py3-none-any.whl

Prerequisites

jwsacruncher

eseas requires the jwsacruncher Java package. You can download it from the jwsacruncher GitHub releases page.

Setup Instructions

1. Download the latest release of jwsacruncher from the releases page.
2. Unzip the downloaded file.
3. Note the path to the bin directory inside the unzipped folder.

After downloading jwsacruncher, you need to specify its location when using the Options function from the eseas package.

Usage

Here's an example of how to use the eseas package:

from eseas import Seasonal, Options
import time

def main():
    # Specify the path to the jwsacruncher bin directory
    java_folder = r'../../Downloads/jwsacruncher-2.2.4/bin'
    demetra_source_folder = r"./demetra_source_folder"
    local_folder = r"./test_out"

    options = Options(
        demetra_source_folder,
        java_folder,
        local_folder,
        result_file_names=("sa", "s_f", "cal"), # *1

        workspace_mode=True,
        file_name_explanation=True,
    )
    # Note (1)
    # result_file_names see full list of result types from Demetra Components below

    seas = Seasonal(options)

    seas.part1()
    time.sleep(10)
    seas.part2()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

How it Works

1. Input Directory: The user specifies the directory of the Demetra workspace where XML files are located.
2. Batch File Creation: The package creates batch files for all XML files in the specified directory.
3. Execution: It runs the batch files using the jwsacruncher tool.
4. Output Collection: The specified outputs are collected and compiled into individual Excel files for each XML file processed.
