DataSets

DataSets.jl exists to help manage data and reduce the amount of data wrangling code you need to write. It's annoying to write

• Command line wrappers which deal with paths to data storage
• Code to load and save from various data storage systems (eg, local filesystem data; local git data, downloaders for remote data over various protocols, etc)
• Code to load the same data model from various serializations (eg, text: plain/compressed, property tree: toml/json/msgpack/bson/... tabular: csv/csv.gz/parquet/sqlite/...)
• Code to deal with data lifecycle; versions, provenance, etc

DataSets provides scaffolding to make this kind of code more reusable. We want to make it easy to relocate an algorithm between different data environments without code changes. For example from your laptop to the cloud, to another user's machine, or to an HPC system.
