Search, Consume, and Publish Data Packages
You can search the public datapm.io registry using a modern web browser. Or use the following command to search via the command line client.
datapm search "example search"
Then fetch a specific data package.
datapm fetch datapm/example
Generate your own packages from a publicly available data set.
datapm package https://some-web-server.com/path/to/data.csv
You can also create packages of data from databases, cloud systems, and many other sources. Use the following command to see all available sources.
datapm package
You can update the schema and statistics in the package file using the following command.
datapm update my-package-file.datapm.json
You can edit properties and descriptions of a package using the edit command.
datapm edit my-package-file.datapm.json
Finally, you can publish your package to a registry with the following command.
datapm publish my-package-file.datapm.json
And then you can re-publish the updates using the same publish command above. Or using the update command directly on the registry.
datapm update my-catalog/my-package
