`ydata-profiling` primary goal is to provide a one-line Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) experience in a consistent and fast solution. Like pandas `df.describe()` function, that is so handy, ydata-profiling delivers an extended analysis of a DataFrame while allowing the data analysis to be exported in different formats such as **html** and **json**.

The package outputs a simple and digested analysis of a dataset, including **time-series** and **text**.


## ▶️ Quickstart

### Install
```cmd
pip install ydata-profiling
```
or
```cmd
conda install -c conda-forge ydata-profiling
```
### Start profiling

Start by loading your pandas `DataFrame` as you normally would, e.g. by using:

```python
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
from ydata_profiling import ProfileReport

df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.rand(100, 5), columns=["a", "b", "c", "d", "e"])
```

To generate the standard profiling report, merely run:

```python
profile = ProfileReport(df, title="Profiling Report")
```

## Key features

- **Type inference**: automatic detection of columns' data types (*Categorical*, *Numerical*, *Date*, etc.)
- **Warnings**: A summary of the problems/challenges in the data that you might need to work on (*missing data*, *inaccuracies*, *skewness*, etc.)
- **Univariate analysis**: including descriptive statistics (mean, median, mode, etc) and informative visualizations such as distribution histograms
- **Multivariate analysis**: including correlations, a detailed analysis of missing data, duplicate rows, and visual support for variables pairwise interaction
- **Time-Series**: including different statistical information relative to time dependent data such as auto-correlation and seasonality, along ACF and PACF plots.
- **Text analysis**: most common categories (uppercase, lowercase, separator), scripts (Latin, Cyrillic) and blocks (ASCII, Cyrilic)
- **File and Image analysis**: file sizes, creation dates, dimensions, indication of truncated images and existence of EXIF metadata
- **Compare datasets**: one-line solution to enable a fast and complete report on the comparison of datasets
- **Flexible output formats**: all analysis can be exported to an HTML report that can be easily shared with different parties, as JSON for an easy integration in automated systems and as a widget in a Jupyter Notebook.

The report contains three additional sections:

- **Overview**: mostly global details about the dataset (number of records, number of variables, overall missigness and duplicates, memory footprint)
- **Alerts**: a comprehensive and automatic list of potential data quality issues (high correlation, skewness, uniformity, zeros, missing values, constant values, between others)
- **Reproduction**: technical details about the analysis (time, version and configuration)

## 📝 Use cases
YData-profiling can be used to deliver a variety of different use-case. The documentation includes guides, tips and tricks for tackling them:

| Use case | Description                                                                                 |
|----------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

### Using inside Jupyter Notebooks

There are two interfaces to consume the report inside a Jupyter notebook: through widgets and through an embedded HTML report.

<img alt="Notebook Widgets" src="https://ydata-profiling.ydata.ai/docs/master/assets/widgets.gif" width="800" />

The above is achieved by simply displaying the report as a set of widgets. In a Jupyter Notebook, run:

```python
profile.to_widgets()
```

The HTML report can be directly embedded in a cell in a similar fashion:

```python
profile.to_notebook_iframe()
```

<img alt="HTML" src="https://ydata-profiling.ydata.ai/docs/master/assets/iframe.gif" width="800" />

### Exporting the report to a file

To generate a HTML report file, save the `ProfileReport` to an object and use the `to_file()` function:

```python
profile.to_file("your_report.html")
```

Alternatively, the report's data can be obtained as a JSON file:

```python
# As a JSON string
json_data = profile.to_json()

# As a file
profile.to_file("your_report.json")
```

### Using in the command line

For standard formatted CSV files (which can be read directly by pandas without additional settings), the `pandas_profiling` executable can be used in the command line. The example below generates a report named _Example Profiling Report_, using a configuration file called `default.yaml`, in the file `report.html` by processing a `data.csv` dataset.

```sh
pandas_profiling --title "Example Profiling Report" --config_file default.yaml data.csv report.html
```

Additional details on the CLI are available [on the documentation](https://ydata-profiling.ydata.ai/docs/master/pages/getting_started/quickstart.html#command-line-usage).
