This is the Cognite Python SDK for developers and data scientists working with Cognite Data Fusion (CDF).
The package is tightly integrated with pandas, and helps you work easily and efficiently with data in Cognite Data Fusion (CDF).

## Reference documentation
* [SDK Documentation](https://cognite-sdk-python.readthedocs-hosted.com/en/latest/)
* [CDF API Documentation](https://doc.cognitedata.com/)
* [Cognite Developer Documentation](https://docs.cognite.com/dev/)

## Installation

### Without any optional dependencies
To install the core version of this package:
```bash
$ pip install cognite-sdk
```

### With optional dependencies
A number of optional dependencies may be specified in order to support a wider set of features.
The available extras (along with the libraries they include) are:
- numpy `[numpy]`
- pandas `[pandas]`
- geo `[geopandas, shapely]`
- sympy `[sympy]`
- functions `[pip]`
- yaml `[PyYAML]`
- all `[numpy, pandas, geopandas, shapely, sympy, pip, PyYAML]`

To include optional dependencies, specify them like this with pip:

```bash
$ pip install "cognite-sdk[pandas, geo]"
```

or like this if you are using poetry:
```bash
$ poetry add cognite-sdk -E pandas -E geo
```

### Performance notes
If you regularly need to fetch large amounts of datapoints, consider installing with `numpy`
(or with `pandas`, as it depends on `numpy`) for best performance, then use the `retrieve_arrays` (or `retrieve_dataframe`) endpoint(s). This avoids building large pure Python data structures, and instead reads data directly into memory-efficient `numpy.ndarrays`.

### Windows specific
On Windows, it is recommended to install `geopandas` and its dependencies using `conda` package manager, see [geopandas installation page](https://geopandas.org/en/stable/getting_started/install.html#installation).
The following commands create a new environment, install `geopandas` and `cognite-sdk`.

```bash
conda create -n geo_env
conda activate geo_env
conda install --channel conda-forge geopandas
pip install cognite-sdk
```
