Getting started

Datahugger with Python

Load a dataset (or any digital asset) from a repository with the datahugger.get() function. The first argument is the DOI or URL, and the second is the folder name to store the dataset (it will be created if it does not exist).

The following code loads dataset 10.5061/dryad.mj8m0 into the folder data.

import datahugger

# download the dataset to the folder "data"
datahugger.get("10.5061/dryad.mj8m0", "data")

For an example of how this can integrate with your work, see the example workflow notebook or Open In Colab

Datahugger with command line

The command line function datahugger provides an easy interface to download data. The first argument is the DOI or URL, and the second argument is the name of the folder to store the dataset (will be created if it does not exist).
