custom_dc: custom mapping file?

bkosuru opened this issue · 1 comments

Hi @keyurva,

I am doing a POC for private data commons.

The examples for custom dc https://github.com/datacommonsorg/website/tree/master/custom_dc/examples
has only one entity and variables. Our data has entities and relationships. ex: Books and Authors. Can I create my own mapping files (MFC files) as described in https://github.com/datacommonsorg/data/blob/master/docs/README.md for custom_dc?

Thanks,
Bindu

Hi Bindu,

Your deduction is correct - with private DC we currently only support observations. We're working on adding support for entities in the near future. We can update this bug once we have it.

Private DCs currently don't support injesting MCF files.

Thanks,
Keyur
