agate-remote adds read support for remote files to agate.

Important links:

Install#

To install:

pip install agate-remote

For details on development or supported platforms see the agate documentation.

Usage#

agate-remote uses a monkey patching pattern to add read support for remote files to all agate.Table instances.

import agate
import agateremote

Importing agate-remote adds methods to agate.Table.

table = agate.Table.from_url('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/onyxfish/agate/master/examples/test.csv')
print(table)

agate-remote also let’s you create an Archive, which is a reference to a group of tables with a known path structure.

archive = agateremote.Archive('https://github.com/vincentarelbundock/Rdatasets/raw/master/csv/')

table = archive.get_table('sandwich/PublicSchools.csv')
print(table)

API#

agateremote.table_remote.from_url(cls, url, callback=<bound method from_csv of <class 'agate.table.Table'>>, binary=False, requests_encoding=None, **kwargs)#

Download a remote file and pass it to a Table parser.

Parameters:

  • url – URL to a file to load.

  • callback – The method to invoke to create the table. Typically either agate.Table.from_csv() or agate.Table.from_json(), but it could also be a method provided by an extension.

  • requests_encoding – An encoding to pass to requests for use when decoding the response content. (e.g. force use of ‘utf-8-sig’ when CSV has a BOM).

  • binary – If False the downloaded data will be processed as a string, otherwise it will be treated as binary data. (e.g. for Excel files)

class agateremote.archive.Archive(root, url_func=<function default_url_func>, callback=<bound method from_csv of <class 'agate.table.Table'>>)#

Allows for fast access to respository of remote datasets with a known path structure.

get_table(key)#

Download a remote file relative to the archive’s root and return it as a table.
