Distribution
10000-ft. overview
DataLad's purpose is to make data management and data distribution more accessible.
To do so, it stands on the shoulders of Git and Git-annex to deliver a
decentralized system for data exchange. This includes automated ingestion of
data from online portals and exposing it in readily usable form as Git(-annex)
repositories - or datasets. However, the actual data storage and permission
management remains with the original data provider(s).
The full documentation is available at http://docs.datalad.org and
http://handbook.datalad.org provides a hands-on crash-course on DataLad.
Extensions
A number of extensions are available that provide additional functionality for
DataLad. Extensions are separate packages that are to be installed in addition
to DataLad. In order to install DataLad customized for a particular domain, one
can simply install an extension directly, and DataLad itself will be
automatically installed with it. An annotated list of
extensions is available in
the DataLad handbook.
Support
The documentation for this project is found here:

All bugs, concerns, and enhancement requests for this software can be submitted here:
https://github.com/datalad/datalad/issues
If you have a problem or would like to ask a question about how to use DataLad,
please submit a question to
NeuroStars.org
with a datalad tag. NeuroStars.org is a platform similar to StackOverflow
but dedicated to neuroinformatics.

Installation
Debian-based systems
On Debian-based systems, we recommend enabling NeuroDebian, via which we
provide recent releases of DataLad. Once enabled, just do:
apt-get install datalad
Gentoo-based systems
On Gentoo-based systems (i.e. all systems whose package manager can parse ebuilds as per the Package Manager Specification), we recommend enabling the ::science overlay, via which we
provide recent releases of DataLad. Once enabled, just run:
emerge datalad
Other Linux'es via conda
conda install -c conda-forge datalad
will install the most recently released version, and release candidates are
available via
conda install -c conda-forge/label/rc datalad
Other Linux'es, macOS via pip
Before you install this package, please make sure that you install a recent
version of git-annex. Afterwards,
install the latest version of datalad from
PyPI. It is recommended to use
a dedicated virtualenv:
# Create and enter a new virtual environment (optional)
virtualenv --python=python3 ~/env/datalad
. ~/env/datalad/bin/activate
# Install from PyPI
pip install datalad
By default, installation via pip installs the core functionality of DataLad,
allowing for managing datasets etc. Additional installation schemes
are available, so you can request enhanced installation via
pip install datalad[SCHEME], where SCHEME could be:
tests
to also install dependencies used by DataLad's battery of unit tests
full
to install all dependencies.
More details on installation and initial configuration can be found in the
DataLad Handbook: Installation.
