WOUDC Quality Assessment library

Python package for automatically quality assessing WOUDC data based on defined rules.

Installation

Requirements

woudc-qa requires Python 2.7.

Dependencies

See requirements.txt.

Installing the Package

# via distutils
pip install -r requirements.txt
python setup.py install

Usage

Command line interface

usage: woudc-qa.py [-h] --file FILE

Execute Qa.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help   show this help message and exit
  --file FILE  Path to extended CSV file to be quality assessed.

Examples

from woudc_qa import qa
file_s = open(<path to your extended CSV file.>).read()
qa_results = qa(file_s)
# qa_results is a dictionary as such:
# qa_results: {
#     filename: {
#        test_id: {
#            row : {
#                result: result of this test, pass/fail/None/NR,
#                table: table name,
#                table_index: table_index,
#                element: element name,
#                related_test_id: test_id,
#                related_test_result: related tests result, pass/fail/None/NR
#                precond : precondition result: pass/fail/None/NR
#            }
#        }
#    }
# }
# where,
# 'filename' is the name of the file, default it to 'file1'
# 'test_id' is the test identifier from the test definition
# 'row' is the row number of the element under assessmet. Always 1 for non profile/payload element
# 'result', is the result of the assessment for the element at the indicated row for the given test
# 'table' is the name of the table where the element under assessment is found
# 'table_index' is the index of the above table. Default to 1, index will be incremented by 1 to handle multicipity
# 'element' is the element under assessment
# 'related_test_id' is a listing of any related test to this test
# 'related_test_result' is a aggregated result of all related tests to this test
# 'precond' is the aggregated result of any precondition checks
#
# from collections import OrderedDict
# test_result = qa_result[<filename>][<test_id>]
# iterate over test results by row:
# for row, result in test_result.iteritems():
#    print row, result
# get result of assessment at a specific row
# row_result = qa_results[<filename>][<test_id>][<row number>]['result']

Development
