PyDataWrap 1.2.7

# PyDataWrap Python Wrappers on Data Structures and abstractions over persistent data stores.

## Description This module is a home for Python wrappers of data, databases and datastructures. It defines common use wrapping that can treat one style of data as another or reorder/subselect a collection.

The filedbwrap file defines many file based database objects such as dictionaries and sets which are treated as memory objects in Python but have a very large capacity with limited memory footprint.

The savable file defines object persistence objects which save state when they deconstruct and reload that state upon initialization.

The listwrap file defines a no-copy list subset selector that can retrieve subsets of data to be treated as complete, contiguous lists.

There are also some file loading/saving modules for various formats.

## Dependencies * xlrd (for excel files in tableloader.py) * redis (for RedisDB wrappers)

## Setup ### Installation From source:

python setup.py install

From pip:

pip install pydatawrap

## Features * File based dictionaries and sets * Persistent file based objects * 2D table loading/saving * Table wrappers to transpose and transform data * List wrapping for sublist selection (without copying)

## Navigating the Repo ### datawrap The implementation files for the repository.

### tests All unit tests for the repo.

python setup.py test

## Language Preferences * Google Style Guide * Object Oriented (with a few exceptions)

## TODO * Add tests for fileloader and savable
