This is a generalized set of console utilities and Python 3.6+ package which help with managing Dataverse repositories. This means Harvard University's data repository software, not Microsoft's Dataverse product.

With these utilities you can:

• Upload your data sets from a TSV spreadsheet
• Bulk release multiple data sets
• Bulk delete (unpublished) assets
• Quickly duplicate records
• Replace licences
• and more!

All without touching the Dataverse GUI.

While the defaults favour a particular Dataverse instance (ie, the Abacus data repository at the University of British Columbia Library), they are designed to work with any installation / Dataverse user.

pip install dataverse_utils

User-friendly documentation is available at https://ubc-library-rc.github.io/dataverse_utils. This includes complete descriptions of all console utilities and a complete API reference.

The primary repository for this software is at https://github.com/ubc-library-rc/dataverse_utils.
