Create a nnpdf data cli
This is just a collection of scripts / ideas that I think they might be useful. I've been writing some scripts already while preparing the talk for DIS so might as well make it into a cli for the data package.
- Given a dataset name, return the hepdata / arxiv entry
- Given an arxiv/hepdata entry, return matching datasets.
- Given a runcard / yaml file with
dataset_inputs, return a list of all matching hep data / arxiv entry. Perhaps even prepare a nice latex format table and, if inspire/arxiv info is available, through the API, the bib file with the corresponding references. - Some filtering (e.g., all datasets that match
CMS_1JET_13TEVand have a theory) - Provide a way to read and/or search in all theories
In order to separate the data package from the rest of the code (while keeping the reading features), the only necessary step is to move this function (and its dependencies) to the data: https://github.com/NNPDF/nnpdf/blob/87daeb1b25cc913fe45a6d7d8be779f80c7ebffc/validphys2/src/validphys/commondataparser.py#L811
The only piece that keeps a dependence on validphys are the old plotting options (plus perhaps a few constants that are defined in other files). Once no more old commondata files need to be read, those will be easily removed.
In the meantime, if someone wanta to move things around anyway they can do so, but some kind of "fake plotting options"* will be needed in the middle.
*plotting options are, obviously, more than plotting options and have an effect also in e.g. the kinematics
