estrec

The estimation record: what was estimated, what came out, and how and where it ran, as a small JSON file that any software can write and read.

0.1 draft for comment. The format may still change. Issues and comments are welcome on GitHub.

Write a record

Python, the reference validator, writer and redactor:

pip install "estrec[jsonschema] @ git+https://github.com/estrec/estrec"
estrec validate model.estrec.json

R, from fixest fits:

remotes::install_github("estrec/estrec", subdir = "r")
estrec::write_estimation(fit, "fit.estrec.json")

Published tables

A table published from the viewer gets an unlisted link at estrec.org/t/…. Identifying details (user, host, paths) are removed before it is stored. It is kept for a year after its last view, and you can delete it any time with the link you get when you publish. Licence: CC0 by default, or CC BY or CC BY-SA.
