A data storage and management engine.

syphon is a Python package that provides a simple interface to perform common tasks on labelled data. Its aim is to fit seamlessly into any automation pipeline that requires organization and collation of large datasets.

• Archive file(s) into a data storage directory.
• Automatic archive organization based on the value of a data column (if a .schema.json file is present).
• Combine new data with additional "meta" data before archival.
• Build a single data file from the contents of the archive directory.
• Initialize new archive directories by creating a new .schema.json file.

Archive a single file or multiple files with a wildcard pattern:

python -m syphon archive ./storage/folder -d /path/to/data.csv

python -m syphon archive ./storage/folder -d /path/to/*.csv

Build a single data file from an archive directory:

python -m syphon build /path/to/storage/folder all_data.csv

General command line documentation and subcommand documentation can be accessed via

 python -m syphon --help

 python -m syphon SUBCOMMAND --help
