Django Rest Pandas
Serves up Pandas dataframes via the Django REST Framework for use in client-side (i.e. d3.js) visualizations and offline analysis (e.g. Excel)
Overview:
The Django REST Pandas (DRP) tool integrates pandas DataFrames with the Django REST Framework to create a model-driven visualization API. It focuses on separating data and presentation, simplifying implementation, and providing easy access to source data for visualizations. DRP not only serves data through various formats but also includes interactive visualization options using the @wq/chart library and aids in creating custom JavaScript charts compatible with CSV outputs.
Features:
- Integration: Combines pandas DataFrames with Django REST Framework.
- Separation of Concerns: Strict separation between data and presentation.
- Source Data Access: Easy access to source data for visualizations.
- Default Visualizations: Pre-built interactive visualizations through @wq/chart library.
- Custom Visualizations: Support for creating custom JavaScript charts.
- Interactive Charts: Enables the creation of time series, scatter, and box plot charts.
- Output Formats: Supports various formats like CSV for consumption.
- Django
Django is a high-level Python web framework that encourages rapid development and clean, pragmatic design. It follows the model-view-controller (MVC) architectural pattern, providing an extensive set of built-in tools and conventions to streamline the creation of robust and scalable web applications.
- Eslint
ESLint is a linter for JavaScript that analyzes code to detect and report on potential problems and errors, as well as enforce consistent code style and best practices, helping developers to write cleaner, more maintainable code.
- Rollup
RollupJS is a popular and efficient JavaScript module bundler that takes the code from multiple modules and packages them into a single optimized file, minimizing the overall size of the application and improving its performance.
