Purpose / Overview

This script will connect to the Sierra database and use the SQL feature to collect required information from the database views for use with the CollectionHQ service.

This application will also export data from the Sierra ILS, and cache it for purpose of feeding collection analysis tools

Building SQLite DB / Export Process

For the purpose of hosting an instance of Datasette, we can build an SQLite database from the Jupyter Notebook : collection-analysis.cincy.pl_gen_db.ipynb

Run the notebook in the terminal like this:

jupyter nbconvert \
--execute --to notebook \
--output output \
collection-analysis.cincy.pl_gen_db.ipynb
