update: examples.py underway. That will be the way to get started.
Goals: The goal of this public repository is to provide a software package for bibliometricians across the world to collect their data, process it, and store it easily. The package has two focuses only:
- The code must be as easy to use as possible
- The code must handle all data prepations steps from downloading to visualization-ready data.
This also means the code does not do any visualization or website services.
Furthermore, basic experience with python and a working installation is assumed. Some functions query Elsevier or other paid services and require their licenses.
Roadmap: Current points: examples.py, R-integration and back-end 'luigi' Future points: please share your wishes ! : )
License and attribution: see LICENSE.md
Contributions: If you want to make a contribution you are very welcome, and for a good process I only need you to meet the following conditions:
- The contributor asserts that they are the original author of the code they are submitting.
- The contributor grants the project the right to use and distribute the code they are submitting.
- The contributor has the right to grant the previous two points.
- Any code submitted by a contributor is not guaranteed to be accepted or used. This is to make sure the project for example does not accidentally publish stolen code.
PS: The project is only partially ready for production.
If you have questions feel free to make an issue ticket even if it is not an issue : ) PS: if the pip installer does not work, try conda install -c conda-forge nb_conda_kernels on an anaconda installation, and build on a python3.6
