Propagate is a multi-tool connecting data analysts and data owners: the analyst can request access to a data package through a web app, while data owners can manage, check, and execute the data requests through a command-line interface (CLI).
✨ Key features
Data requester
- Request data via a web app.
- Send the data request to the data owner in a reproducible and structured format.
Data owner
- Receive reproducible and query-ready instructions for creating a subset from your data package.
- Test the compatibility of the data request query against your metadata.
- Generate a subset, i.e. as Parquet files for tabular data, based on a received request.
Propagate focuses on data accessibility by hosting an online request system and a CLI for the data owner to execute and manage the request. For creating the data packages with metadata, see, our Python package Sprout. For making human-readable documentation of the data package, see Flower.
