This module is designed to do simple provenance logging in JSONL.
The simplest way to use it is with the Step context manager, as in this overly simple example:
import random
from provenance.capture import Step
with Step() as step:
step.add_input('input1', 'input1_id', 'input1_description')
step.add_output('output1', 'output1_id', 'output1_description')
step.add_parameter('param1', 'param1_value')
if random.random() < 0.5:
raise ValueError('Random failure')The result will be to print a one-line JSON record describing the run (or failure, if it randomly fails).
