(Now aren't you glad I didn't say)

The Problem:

Documentation is usually left to a researcher.
Who has higher priority research to work on.
Many think that documentation needs to be extensive.
So documentation isn't always done.

What does great documentation look like?

What does can great documentation look like?

This isn't about
open science

Well documented and preserved datasets and code are first useful to you and your team.
You should be able to reuse your own data as part of future work.
Documentation is almost always necessary for reuse -- even for Future You.

Enough information,
about the project, methods, and materials
such that the information is maintainable over time,
in an accessible format,
and valuable for those who need it.

Mimimum viable documentation

tl;dr

Something is better than nothing
It doesn't need to be a dissertation
Seriously, just write something
Seriously.

What are the basic pieces of documentation?

Codebook

"What do the data values mean?"
Describes what, if any, coded values mean within the data file.

Data dictionary

"What does this data file contain?"
Describes the individual questions or measurements contained within a data file.

readme.txt

May contain a mix of both, and other important contextual info.

Sometimes it can do all the things

ICPSR

Variable name: Human name

Descriptive information

Descriptive statistics and codes

http://doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR36498.v1

Sometimes it does a little less, but you can still get along

http://doi.org/10.3886/E17507V2

Sometimes they are machine readable

Column name	Corresponding survey question	Codes
Q1	Please select the option that best describes your status.	1="I am a US citizen or permanent resident"; 2= "I am an international student"
Q2	Please select your age	1="<18"; 2="18-25"; 3="26-30"; 4="31-35"; 5="36-40"; 6="41-45"; 7="45+"
Q3	What is your gender?	1="Male"; 2="Female", 3="Other", 4="I do not wish to respond"

http://doi.org/10.3886/E43668V1

Or sometimes there's nothing...

http://www.doi.org/¯\_(ツ)_/¯

What are the core elements?

A little bit of data profiling
A little bit of data cleaning
A little bit of human narrative

Perfect > Something > Nothing

Easy to improve something...

Hard to make something from nothing...

Automate what you can
Focus on the elements only you can answer
Move on with your life

AutoDocish

Automate what you can

Data dictionaries report the headers
Codebooks report unique values
Descriptive statistics are...statistics

These are things a computer can do.

What's left for the human?

Context
Methods
Pesky human sentences

Let's take a look

So you've got a CSV...

$ python data_profile.py source output missing_code

1. The data source, either folder or file

2. Folder name for the profile files to be written

3. Missing code for the data, presumes empty string if not provided.

Outputs

Inside the output folder:
- One profile per data file
- A single JSON file with all profile data

out/

json

.md

$ python data_profile.py vagrants.csv vagrants/ [missing]
Generating profile for: vagrants.csv
vagrants/ already exists. Will OVERWRITE.
Profiles written into vagrants/

Example data from:

Crymble, Adam et al.. (2015). Vagrant Lives: 14,789 Vagrants Processed by Middlesex County, 1777-1786 (version 1.1). Zenodo. 10.5281/zenodo.31026

Single file usage

$ python data_profile.py fakedata fakes ''
Generating profiles for 1000 files
fakes/ created
Profiles written into fakes/

Folder usage

So what's going on in the code?

for f in files:
    if f.endswith('.csv'):
        finfo = basic_stats(f)
        headers = get_headers(f)
        csvinfo = review_csv(f, mode = 'rU', missing = missingcode)
        all_file_data[f] = ({'file_metadata': finfo, \
                         'csv_basic': csvinfo['csv_basic'], \
                         'columns': csvinfo['cols']})
        make_md(f, all_file_data[f], headers, target)

For each file

if it is a CSV

get some info on it

organize that info and write profile file

BYOPF

"bring your own profiling functions"

for f in files:
    if f.endswith('¯\_(ツ)_/¯'):
        finfo = ຈلຈ(f)
        headers = ಠДಠ(f)
        csvinfo = ಥДಥ(f, mode = 'rU', missing = missingcode)
        all_file_data[f] = ({'file_metadata': finfo, \
                         'csv_basic': csvinfo['csv_basic'], \
                         'columns': csvinfo['cols']})
        make_md(f, all_file_data[f], headers, target)

(valid python3 code ^_^)

pip not required

Uses all standard packages in 2.7

import os
from os.path import isfile, join
import csv
import datetime
import glob
import sys
import json

Future directions

Just a proof of concept

Easier to start with something than nothing goes for code as well
CSVs are common and easy, so the best of low hanging fruit
Needs more work for data type, more granular control, etc.

Features I'd like to add:

Turn this into a web tool that can be locally launched
Better auto detection for data types
More statistics
Prettier outputs

AutoDocish: Automated-ish Dataset Documentation

My hats

The Problem:

What does great documentation look like?

What does can great documentation look like?

This isn't about open science

Mimimum viable documentation

tl;dr

What are the basic pieces of documentation?

Codebook

Data dictionary

readme.txt

Sometimes it can do all the things

ICPSR

Sometimes it does a little less, but you can still get along

Sometimes they are machine readable

Or sometimes there's nothing...

What are the core elements?

Perfect > Something > Nothing

AutoDocish

Automate what you can

What's left for the human?

Let's take a look

So you've got a CSV...
