Connecting to File Data
Overview
Files are a common way to store data. On the davinci platform, there are multiple ways to
connect to file data.
Reading File Data in Python
Data that resides in files can easily be imported and analyzed with Python.
import json
with open(file_path, 'r', encoding='utf-8') as f:
data = json.load(f)
File Data in the Browser
Due to the security restrictions in the browser, data that resides in files must be uploaded and embedded
into anything you do in the Brower.
Davinci VSCode Extension
When using a
Python Environment,
the davinci extension will watch the data folder within the environment. Files within the folder will be listed
as data in the davinci extension navigation tree.
