Apps

The introduction of Dataverse Software APIs has fostered the development of a variety of software applications that are listed in the Integrations, External Tools, and Reporting Tools and Common Queries sections of the Admin Guide.

The apps below are open source and demonstrate how to use Dataverse Software APIs. Some of these apps are built on Client Libraries that are available for Dataverse Software APIs in Python, Javascript, R, and Java.

Javascript

Data Explorer

Data Explorer is a GUI which lists the variables in a tabular data file allowing searching, charting and cross tabulation analysis.

File Previewers

File Previewers are tools that display the content of files - including audio, html, Hypothes.is annotations, images, PDF, text, video - allowing them to be viewed without downloading.

Python

Please note that there are multiple Python modules for Dataverse Software APIs listed in the Client Libraries section.

dataverse-sample-data

dataverse-sample-data allows you to populate your Dataverse installation with sample data. It makes uses of pyDataverse, which is listed in the Client Libraries section.

repo2docker

repo2docker is a command line tool that allows you to create and start a Docker image from a code repository that follows the [reproducible executable environment specification](https://repo2docker.readthedocs.io/en/latest/specification.html). repo2docker supports Dataverse installation DOIs to find and retrieve datasets.

https://github.com/jupyter/repo2docker/blob/master/repo2docker/contentproviders/dataverse.py

Java

Please note that there is a Java library for Dataverse Software APIs listed in the Client Libraries section.

DVUploader

The open-source DVUploader tool is a stand-alone command-line Java application that uses the Dataverse Software API to upload files to a specified Dataset. Files can be specified by name, or the DVUploader can upload all files in a directory or recursively from a directory tree. The DVUploader can also verify that uploaded files match their local sources by comparing the local and remote fixity checksums. Source code, release 1.0.0- jar file, and documentation are available on GitHub. DVUploader’s creation was supported by the Texas Digital Library.
