Dynamic data analysis over the web. The logic to your data dashboards.

Project description

https://secure.travis-ci.org/modilabs/bamboo.png?branch=master

bamboo is an application that systematizes realtime data analysis. bamboo provides an interface for merging, aggregating and adding algebraic calculations to dynamic datasets. Clients can interact with bamboo through a a REST web interface and through Python.

bamboo supports a simple querying language to build calculations (e.g. student teacher ratio) and aggregations (e.g. average number of students per district) from datasets. These are updated as new data is received.

bamboo is open source software released under the 3-clause BSD license, which is also known as the “Modified BSD License”.

bff = bf.recognize_dates()
bff.to_json()

>>> '[{"date": {"$date": 1356048000000}}]'

# Turn asyncronous processing off
bm.set_async(False)

url = 'http://formhub.org/mberg/forms/good_eats/data.csv'
dataset = create_dataset_from_url(url)
