Cookiecutter-Spatial-Data-Science

Cookiecutter-Spatial-Data-Science strives to streamline and promote use of best practices for projects combining Geography and Data Science through a logical, reasonably standardized, and flexible project structure.

Cookiecutter-Spatial-Data-Science project grew out of a need within the Advanced Analytics team at Esri to streamline project bootstrapping, encourage innovation, increase repeatability, encourage documentation, and encourage best practices.

Requirements

• ArcGIS Pro 2.9
• Conda (Anaconda or miniconda)
• Cookiecutter >= 1.4.0

> conda install -c conda-forge cookiecutter

To start a new project, run:

> cookiecutter https://github.com/esri/cookiecutter-spatial-data-science

Using Make - common commands

Based on the pattern provided in the Cookiecutter Data Science template by Driven Data this template streamlines a number of commands using the make command pattern.

• make env - builds the Conda environment with all the name and dependencies from environment_dev.yml and installs the local project package using the command python -m pip install -e ./src/src/<project_package> so you can easily test against the package as you are developing it.

• make env_clone - designed for environments using the default Conda instance installed with ArcGIS Pro. It is similar to make env, except this command clones the arcgispro-py3 environment. Otherwise, it still installs the packages listed in environment_dev.yml and installs the local package using pip as described above.

• make docs - builds Sphinx docs based on files in ./docsrc/source and places them in ./docs. This enables easy publishing in the master branch in GitHub.

• make test - activates the environment created by the make env or make env_clone and runs all the tests in the ./testing directory using PyTest. Alternately, if you prefer to use TOX for testing (my preference), there is a tox.ini file included as well. The dependencies (tox and tox-conda) for using TOX are included in the default requirements. By default, the TOX file creates an environment from the environment.yml file using much fewer dependencies than the *_dev.yml files.
