[good first issue - beginner] Pandas Readers & Writers

[skrawcz]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. We need to add more Pandas Readers & Writers (Savers & Loaders in our internal parlance).

Describe the solution you'd like We need to have readers & if appropriate, writers, covering:

• [x] #409
• [x] #292 (assigned to @benhhack)
• [x] #407 (assigned to @bengineerdavis)
• [ ] pandas fwf
• [x] #342 ()
• [x] #341 (assigned to @bryangalindo)
• [x] #369 (assigned to @JoJo10Smith)
• [x] #352 (assigned to @JoJo10Smith )
• [ ] pandas hdf
• [x] #384 (assigned to @JoJo10Smith )
• [x] #406
• [x] pandas orc (assigned to @JoJo10Smith )
• [ ] pandas sas
• [x] pandas spss
• [x] #355 (assigned to @bryangalindo )
• [ ] #375
• [x] #377 (assigned to @JoJo10Smith )
• [ ] Latex writer

We should cover I/O as listed here.

Additional context We need to start building wrappers around the common ways people will want to save/load data. That way they'll have off the shelf ways to get onto Hamilton easily.

If you're interested in contributing

If you are interested in contributing, picking up one of the above should be straightforward.

1. Ask for one, and we'll assign it.
2. We'll create an issue for you.
3. We'll then work with you on that issue.

In terms of effort, for an example of a desired class, see this code. It basically involves:

1. Reading the subsequent documentation.
2. Creating the right class.
3. Creating some tests for it.
4. Creating an example to put into our examples repository.

Hey there, I would love to give this a go with one of the pandas i/o methods. I'm new to contributing on GitHub so I appreciate the cooperative work.

@benhhack

That would be great! Hopefully there are enough examples to get you started -- let us know what you need above that. No judgement if you use gpt-* to help you out as well -- I've found its helpful for translation/repetetive tasks like this.

@benhhack yeah thanks for offering to help! Just to make sure this indeed is the right issue to get started with, what's your comfort level with python & pandas?

[benhhack]

Quite familiar with using both, you can check out my repos to see my level. Never really done anything like this before though, so I'm quite interested to see how it goes.

Cool. I would take a look at https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/reference/io.html, pick one, and then we can claim that here and create an issue to move discussion to. Which one would you like?

Looking at that they all seem equally vague, haha. You can assign me to whichever you'd feel is most appropriate/best to start on.

Sure. @benhhack mind commenting on #292 so I can assign it to you?

Have commented :))

@benhhack https://github.com/DAGWorks-Inc/hamilton/issues/342 is open for you, if you wanted to comment on it.

@skrawcz I've taken a look at the other tickets and I could try the XML read and write class. The classes shouldn't be too difficult but I will reach out if I need help with the testing.

Thanks Jordan

Please comment on https://github.com/DAGWorks-Inc/hamilton/issues/375 -- note this one will require a GCP account I think.

[JoJo10Smith]

@skrawcz I can take on pandas Stata next.

Hey skrawcz! I would like to work on the Panda Table I have already made many pandas dataframes and would like to work on this project.

[flaviassantos]

@skrawcz can I take 'pandas parquet'?

[skrawcz]

thanks @flaviassantos you should be all set. If you have questions put them in issue https://github.com/DAGWorks-Inc/hamilton/issues/406.

@149189 please comment on https://github.com/DAGWorks-Inc/hamilton/issues/407 to have me assign that to you. If have questions we can have the conversation there.

[JoJo10Smith]
