Welcome to EMPD-admin’s documentation!

The EMPD-admin is a python package to administer the Eurasian Modern Pollen Database (EMPD). This package helps contributors and especially maintainers to test and fix new data contributions.

The main objective of the EMPD-admin is to be used in Github pull requests in the EMPD-data repository. If you write:

@EMPD-admin help

in a comment in a pull request (see here for example), or any other command from the command line interface, it will be handled by a webapp at https://empd-admin.herokuapp.com. See the EMPD-data pull requests section for more details.

The EMPD-admin, however, can also be installed locally to test the contribution before entering a pull request on Github. See the Getting started section for an overview on how to use the EMPD-admin for new contributions and the Installation instructions on how to install the EMPD-admin locally.
