Frictionless-Data-Package-Inspector

Visualize a Frictionless Data Package with at least one tabular data resource defined. It displays:

• a table of information about the columns of the file
• a table of the tabular data

How to use it

You might need to use static-server for development. Call the index.html file with the following query parameters:

1. /index.html?dataset=<dataset-id>&version=<version-id>

Ex: /index.html?dataset=812909&version=1

2. /index.html?dpkg=<url to Frictionless Data Package>

Ex: /index.html?dpkg=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BCODMO/Frictionless-Data-Package-Inspector/ag-grid/datasets/812909/1/data/datapackage.json

How does it work

1. Builds a URL to a Frictionless Data Package (datapackage.json)
2. Loads the datapackage.json
3. Look for a tabular data resource within the data package
4. Create a table to list the fields of that tabular resource
5. Create a table to list the data of that tabular resource
6. Display a progress bar as the data file is downloaded to the client
7. Parse the data file to construct rows for the data table

Dependencies

1. jQuery 3.5.1
2. Datapackage 1.1.9
3. Tableschema 1.12.3
4. AG-Grid 24.1.0

Local Javascript

1. dataViewer.js - processes the Frictionless Data Package and generates the tables
2. detectXHR.js - generates a progress bar for the retrieval of the tabular data file
