Step 4: Get your files and data

Step 4: Get your files and data

There are two strategies to working with data in Domino:

  • You can copy your data into Domino

    If you are working with data that is on your local machine or in a shared server, you might want to upload your data into Domino.

  • You can query your data from Domino

    If you have a large dataset stored in a database or data service, you might just have to query the database or the API for the data service.

In this step, you’ll copy your data into the project using the Jupyter terminal. If you have not done so, complete Step 3 to start a Jupyter workspace.

The starting file path in your Jupyter workspace is /mnt. By default, this is considered the root of your Domino project. If you add or modify files in /mnt, you can save them back to your project when you stop or sync the workspace.

Note
  1. Go to New > Terminal to open a Jupyter terminal.

    New terminal in Jupyter

  2. In the new terminal, run the following command to fetch some data from the BMRS:

    curl -o data.csv "https://www.bmreports.com/bmrs/?q=ajax/filter_csv_download/FUELHH/csv/FromDate%3D2020-01-01%26ToDate%3D2021-01-01/&filename=GenerationbyFuelType_20191002_1657"
  3. In the File Changes tab of your workspace, type a commit message in the text box.

  4. Click Sync All Changes to synchronize the information and save data.csv to your Domino project.

    Full Sync button

  5. Click the Domino logo to return to your project in Domino. In the navigation pane, click Files. The raw data is saved in the latest revision. Then, go to the Files section of Domino. Notice that the raw data has been saved in the latest revision.

See the documentation for other methods to copy data into Domino and query data from Domino.
