Are you looking for an easy and efficient way to create and manage data processing pipelines? Look no further! I am excited to introduce dataDisk, a powerful Python package designed to streamline your data processing tasks. Whether you are a data scientist, data engineer, or a developer working with data, dataDisk offers a flexible and robust solution to handle your data transformation and validation needs.

**Key Features**

- Flexible Data Pipelines: Define a sequence of data processing tasks, including transformations and validations, with ease.
- Built-in Transformations: Use a variety of pre-built transformations such as normalization, standardization, and encoding.
- Custom Transformations: Define and integrate your custom transformation functions.
- Parallel Processing: Enhance performance with parallel execution of pipeline tasks.
- Easy Integration: Simple and intuitive API to integrate dataDisk into your existing projects.

**How It Works**

- **Define Your Data Source and Sink**

Specify the source of your data and where you want the processed data to be saved.

```
from dataDisk.data_sources import CSVDataSource
from dataDisk.data_sinks import CSVSink

source = CSVDataSource('input_data.csv')
sink = CSVSink('output_data.csv')
```

- **Create Your Data Pipeline**

Initialize the data pipeline and add the desired tasks.

```
from dataDisk.pipeline import DataPipeline
from dataDisk.transformation import Transformation

pipeline = DataPipeline(source=source, sink=sink)
pipeline.add_task(Transformation.data_cleaning)
pipeline.add_task(Transformation.normalize)
pipeline.add_task(Transformation.label_encode)
```


- **Execute the pipeline to process your data.**

```
pipeline.process()
print("Data processing complete.")
```

**Get Started**

To start using dataDisk, simply install it via pip:

```
pip install dataDisk
```

**Contribute to dataDisk**
I believe in the power of community and open source. dataDisk is still growing, and I need your help to make it even better! Here’s how you can contribute:

**_Spread the Word_**: Share dataDisk with your colleagues and friends who might benefit from it.

**Example: Testing Transformations**

Here's an example to demonstrate testing all the transformation features available in dataDisk:

```
import logging
import pandas as pd
from dataDisk.transformation import Transformation

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)

# Sample DataFrame
data = pd.DataFrame({
    'feature1': [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
    'feature2': [6, 7, 8, 9, 10],
    'category': ['A', 'B', 'A', 'B', 'A'],
    'feature3': [None, 2.0, None, 4.0, 5.0]
})

logging.info("Original Data:")
logging.info(data)

# Test standardize
logging.info("Testing standardize transformation")
try:
    standardized_data = Transformation.standardize(data.copy())
    logging.info(standardized_data)
except Exception as e:
    logging.error(f"Standardize transformation failed: {str(e)}")

# Test other transformations...
# Add similar blocks for normalize, label_encode, etc.
```
Join us in making dataDisk the go-to solution for data processing pipelines!
