Cagey

First and foremost cagey is a command line tool for creating and managing a cage database. With cagey you will extract a a range of experimental and computational data in a variety of formats and place it into a single file. You can then use this file as input for your scripts which perform data analysis. You can install cagey with:

pip install cagey

Once installed you can use the command line tool to create a new database:

cagey new path/to/data path/to/cagey.db

This will create a new database at path/to/cagey.db and populate it with data from path/to/data. There are in fact a lot more things you can do with cagey, and the best way to learn about them is to use it interactively, starting with:

cagey --help

 Usage: cagey [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

 Run cagey help intro for an introduction.

Working with the database

Once you've used cagey to create a database, you can use the cagey.queries module to extract data from it in your Python scripts. This step is best understood by reading our documentation, which you can find at https://cagey.readthedocs.io.
