Tablecloth
Tablecloth provides a dataset manipulation API for the tech.ml.dataset library.
About Tablecloth
Tablecloth is an open-source dataset manipulation API for the Clojure programming language, built as an addition to the tech.ml.dataset library rather than a standalone replacement. It reorganizes existing tech.ml.dataset functions into a simplified interface focused on common tabular data operations. The library is designed around core usability goals: a single entry point for frequent tasks, native support for grouped datasets, and thread-first syntax for chaining operations. It is compatible with tech.ml.dataset 4.x and 7.x branches, and does not include functionality for other parts of the tech.ml stack such as pipelines, datatypes, readers, or machine learning tools.
Key features
- Single entry point for common dataset operations
- Supports grouped dataset processing
- Thread-first syntax for dataset workflows
- Built atop the tech.ml.dataset library
- Compatible with tech.ml.dataset 4.x and 7.x
Best for: Clojure developers working with tabular data who want a simplified, consistent API for common data manipulation tasks.
Good for
- Simplifies existing tech.ml.dataset functions into a user-friendly API
- Provides a single entry point for common dataset operations
- Supports consistent processing for regular and grouped datasets
Watch out for
- Not a replacement for the underlying tech.ml.dataset library
- Only covers dataset manipulation, excluding other tech.ml stack features
- Documentation builds require a specific Quarto pre-release version as of April 2024
