Crunch.io Cube library

Project description

# crunch-cube

Open Source Python implementation of the API for working with Crunch Cubes

## Introduction

This package contains the implementation of the Crunch Cube API. It is used to extract useful information from Crunch Cube responses (we’ll refer to them as _cubes_ in the subsequent text). _Cubes_ are obtained from the Crunch.io platform, as JSON responses to the specific _queries_ created by the user. These queries specify which data the user wants to extract from the Crunch.io system. The most common usage is to obtain the following:

  • Cross correlation between different variable

  • Margins of the cross tab _cube_

  • Proportions of the cross tab _cube_ (e.g. proportions of each single element to the entire sample size)

  • Percentages

When the data is obtained from the Crunch.io platform, it needs to be interpreted to the form that’s convenient for a user. The actual shape of the _cube_ JSON contains many internal details, which are not of essence to the end-user (but are still necessary for proper _cube_ functionality).

The job of this library is to provide a convenient API that handles those intricacies, and enables the user to quickly and easily obtain (extract) the relevant data from the _cube_. Such data is best represented in a table-like format. For this reason, the most of the API functions return some form of the ndarray type, from the numpy package. Each function is explained in greater detail, uner its own section, under the API subsection of this document.

## Installation

The Crunch Cube package can be installed by using the pip install:

pip install cr.cube

### For developers

For development mode, Crunch Cube needs to be installed from the local checkout of the crunch-cube repository. Navigate to the top-level folder of the repo, on the local file system, and run:

python setup.py develop

## Usage

After the cr.cube package has been successfully installed, the usage is as simple as:

from cr.cube.crunch_cube import CrunchCube

### Obtain the crunch cube JSON from the Crunch.io ### And store it in the ‘cube_JSON_response’ variable

cube = CrunchCube(cube_JSON_response) cube.as_array()

### Outputs: # # np.array([ # [5, 2], # [5, 3] # ])

## API

### as_array

Tabular, or matrix, representation of the _cube_. The detailed description can be found [here](http://crunch-cube.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cr.cube.html#cr-cube-crunch-cube-module).

### margin

Calculates margins of the _cube_. The detailed description can be found [here](http://crunch-cube.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cr.cube.html#cr-cube-crunch-cube-module).

### proportions

Calculates proportions of single variable elements to the whole sample size. The detailed description can be found [here](http://crunch-cube.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cr.cube.html#cr-cube-crunch-cube-module).

### percentages

Calculates percentages of single variable elements to the whole sample size. The detailed description can be found [here](http://crunch-cube.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cr.cube.html#cr-cube-crunch-cube-module).
