Data7 ⚡ Open your data in minutes

Pronounced data·set (7 like sept in French).

The idea 💡

TL;DR Data7 is a high performance web server that generates dynamic datasets (in CSV or Parquet formats) from existing databases and streams them over HTTP 🎉

A quick example

Let say you have a restaurant table in your PostgreSQL database, and you want to make this table an always-up-to-date dataset that can be easily used by the rest of the world.

All you have to do is to initialize your project:

data7 init

✍️ Edit configuration files:

# settings.yaml
production:
  host: "https://data7.wonderful-places.org"
  port: 80

# .secrets.yaml
production:
  DATABASE_URL: "postgresql+asyncpg://user:pass@server:port/wonderful-places"

# data7.yaml
production:
  datasets:
    - basename: restaurants
      query: "SELECT * FROM restaurant"

🏎️ Fire up the data7 server:

data7 run

💥 Your dataset is available at:

• https://data7.wonderful-places.org/d/restaurants.csv (CSV)
• https://data7.wonderful-places.org/d/restaurants.parquet (Parquet)
