Packata

Logo

Packata is a standards-neutral .NET library for working with Data Package v2 and Open Data Contract Standard (ODCS) documents. It maps both formats to a shared model for data assets, schemas, metadata, and endpoints, with optional packages for reading and provisioning data.

About | Packages | Installing | Quickstart

About

Use the format-specific models when you need direct access to Data Package or ODCS concepts. Map either format to Packata.Core.Contracts.DataContract when you want readers, provisioners, and other integrations to work independently of the source document format.

Packages

Package Purpose
Packata.Core Standards-neutral contracts for assets, schemas, endpoints, diagnostics, readers, and provisioners
Packata.DataPackage Data Package v2 models, JSON/YAML serialization, validation, and canonical mapping
Packata.OpenDataContract ODCS models, YAML serialization, validation, and canonical mapping
Packata.ResourceReaders Access to delimited, Excel, Parquet, and database resources through IDataReader
Packata.Storages Access to documents and resources on local, HTTP(S), S3, and Azure storage
Packata.Provisioners Provisioning of canonical data contracts to relational platforms

Packata targets .NET 8, .NET 9, and .NET 10.

Installing

Install the package for the document format you use:

dotnet add package Packata.DataPackage

dotnet add package Packata.OpenDataContract

Add Packata.ResourceReaders, Packata.Storages, or Packata.Provisioners when your application needs those capabilities. Format packages reference Packata.Core, so it does not need to be installed separately.

Quickstart

Load a Data Package descriptor and map it to the standards-neutral model:

using Packata.DataPackage;
using Packata.DataPackage.Mapping;

var package = new DataPackageFactory().LoadFromFile("datapackage.json");

var contract = package
    .ToCanonicalContract()
    .ReportDiagnostics(diagnostic =>
        Console.Error.WriteLine($"{diagnostic.Severity}: {diagnostic.Message}"))
    .RequireValue();

foreach (var asset in contract.Assets)
    Console.WriteLine(asset.Name);

ODCS documents map to the same canonical model through the Packata.OpenDataContract.Mapping namespace. See MIGRATION.md for side-by-side mapping examples and guidance for upgrading from earlier Packata versions.
