Data Dictionary Creator

My first Python package, adamic, is a simple solution for creating data dictionaries.

Installation #

The package is available on PyPi and can be downloaded by running the following from the command line:

pip install adamic

Use #

After installing the package to your environment, import the package to your script, Jupyter notebook, or directly to the python3 command line.

from adamic import adamic

To create your data dictionary, pass a Pandas dataframe to the create_data_dictionary() function:

adamic.create_data_dictionary(sample_df)

The package will prompt you to supply definitions for each variable in the dataset. Hit Enter after supplying definition or if you want to define the variable later after the output file has been created.

Finally, you will be prompted to name your preferred file extension. .csv, .json, and .xlsx are the available options.

Source Code #

The source code for adamic can be found at this GitHub repository.
