Cookiecutter Data Science

A logical, reasonably standardized, but flexible project structure for doing and sharing data science work.

Project homepage

Requirements to use the cookiecutter template:

  • Python 2.7 or 3.5+
  • Cookiecutter Python package >= 1.4.0: This can be installed with pip by or conda depending on how you manage your Python packages:
$ pip install cookiecutter

or

$ conda config --add channels conda-forge
$ conda install cookiecutter

To start a new project, run:

cookiecutter -c v1 https://github.com/drivendata/cookiecutter-data-science

New version of Cookiecutter Data Science

Cookiecutter data science is moving to v2 soon, which will entail using the command ccds ... rather than cookiecutter .... The cookiecutter command will continue to work, and this version of the template will still be available. To use the legacy template, you will need to explicitly use -c v1 to select it. Please update any scripts/automation you have to append the -c v1 option (as above), which is available now.

The resulting directory structure
