# Cookiecutter Data Science

_A logical, reasonably standardized, but flexible project structure for doing and sharing data science work._

#### [Project homepage](http://drivendata.github.io/cookiecutter-data-science/)

### Requirements to use the cookiecutter template:
-----------
- Python 2.7 or 3.5+
- [Cookiecutter Python package](http://cookiecutter.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installation.html) >= 1.4.0: This can be installed with pip by or conda depending on how you manage your Python packages:

``` bash
$ pip install cookiecutter
```

or

``` bash
$ conda config --add channels conda-forge
$ conda install cookiecutter
```

### To start a new project, run:
------------

cookiecutter -c v1 https://github.com/drivendata/cookiecutter-data-science

### New version of Cookiecutter Data Science
------------
Cookiecutter data science is moving to v2 soon, which will entail using
the command `ccds ...` rather than `cookiecutter ...`. The cookiecutter command
will continue to work, and this version of the template will still be available.
To use the legacy template, you will need to explicitly use `-c v1` to select it.
Please update any scripts/automation you have to append the `-c v1` option (as above),
which is available now.

### The resulting directory structure
------------

The directory structure of your new project looks like this:

```
├── LICENSE
├── Makefile <- Makefile with commands like `make data` or `make train`
├── README.md <- The top-level README for developers using this project.
├── data
│ ├── external <- Data from third party sources.
│ ├── interim <- Intermediate data that has been transformed.
│ ├── processed <- The final, canonical data sets for modeling.
│ └── raw <- The original, immutable data dump.
├── data.dvc <- A data version control file (optional); see dvc.org for details

├── docs <- A default Sphinx project; see sphinx-doc.org for details

├── models <- Trained and serialized models, model predictions, or model summaries

├── notebooks <- Jupyter notebooks. Naming convention is a number (for ordering),
│ the creator's initials, and a short `-` delimited description, e.g.
│ `1.0-jqp-initial-data-exploration`.

├── references <- Data dictionaries, manuals, and all other explanatory materials.

├── reports <- Generated analysis as HTML, PDF, LaTeX, etc.
│ └── figures <- Generated graphics and figures to be used in reporting

├── requirements.txt <- The requirements file for reproducing the analysis environment, e.g.
│ generated with `pip freeze > requirements.txt`

├── setup.py <- makes project pip installable (pip install -e .) so src can be imported
├── src <- Source code for use in this project.
│ ├── __init__.py <- Makes src a Python module
│ │
│ ├── data <- Scripts to download or generate data
│ │ └── make_dataset.py
│ │
│ ├── features <- Scripts to turn raw data into features for modeling
│ │ └── build_features.py
│ │
│ ├── models <- Scripts to train models and then use trained models to make
│ │ │ predictions
│ │ ├── predict_model.py
│ │ └── train_model.py
│ │
│ └── visualization <- Scripts to create exploratory and results oriented visualizations
│ └── visualize.py

└── tox.ini <- tox file with settings for running tox; see tox.readthedocs.io
```
