Intake is a lightweight set of tools for loading and sharing data in data science projects.
Intake helps you:

* Load data from a variety of formats (see the [current list of known plugins](http://intake.readthedocs.io/en/latest/plugin-directory.html)) into containers you already know, like Pandas dataframes, Python lists, NumPy arrays, and more.
* Convert boilerplate data loading code into reusable Intake plugins
* Describe data sets in catalog files for easy reuse and sharing between projects and with others.
* Share catalog information (and data sets) over the network with the Intake server

Documentation is available at [Read the Docs](http://intake.readthedocs.io/en/latest).

Status of intake and related packages is available at [Status Dashboard](https://intake.github.io/status)

Install
-------

Recommended method using conda:
```bash
conda install -c conda-forge intake
```

You can also install using `pip`, in which case you have a choice as to how many of the optional
dependencies you install, with the simplest having least requirements

```bash
pip install intake
```

and additional sections `[server]`, `[plot]` and `[dataframe]`, or to include everything:

```bash
pip install intake[complete]
```

Note that you may well need specific drivers and other plugins, which usually have additional 
dependencies of their own. 

Development
-----------
 * Create development Python environment, ideally with `conda`. The requirements can be found in the
   recipe in the `conda/` directory of this repo or in the sister 
   [feedstock](https://github.com/conda-forge/intake-feedstock)
 * Install using `pip install -e .[complete]`
 * Add `pytest` to the environment to be able to run tests
 * Create a fork on github to be able to submit PRs.
 * We respect, but do not enforce, pep8 standards; all new code should be covered by tests.
