zip_longest to filter dataframe and output multiple csv files


I have a dataframe like as shown below

ID,Region,Supplier,year,output
1,ANZ,AB,2021,1
2,ANZ,ABC,2022,1
3,ANZ,ABC,2022,1
4,ANZ,ABE,2021,0
5,ANZ,ABE,2021,1
6,ANZ,ABQ,2021,1
7,ANZ,ABW,2021,1
8,AUS,ABO,2020,1
9,KOREA,ABR,2019,0

data = pd.read_clipboard(sep=',')

My obejctive is to

a) Filter the dataframe by year>=2021 and output==1

b) Generate multiple csv files for each unique combination of region and supplier. For example, data for ANZ and AB should be stored in seperate file. Similarly, KOREA and ABR data should be stored in seperate file.. This has to be done for each unique combination of region and supplier

So, I tried the below

column_name = "region"
col_name = "supplier"
region_values = data[column_name].unique()
supplier_values = data[col_name].unique() 

for i in itertools.zip_longest(region_values,supplier_values,fillvalue="ANZ"):
    data_output = data.query(f"{column_name} == i[0] & Year>=2021 & output == 1 & {col_name} == i[1]")
    output_path = ATTACHMENT_DIR / f"{i}_ge_2021.csv"
    data_output.to_csv(output_path, index=False)

However, this results in error as shown below

KeyError: 'i'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

KeyError Traceback (most recent call last) ~\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\pandas\core\computation\scope.py in resolve(self, key, is_local) 205 # e.g., df[df > 0] --> 206 return self.temps[key] 207 except KeyError as err:

KeyError: 'i'

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

UndefinedVariableError Traceback (most recent call last) C:\Users\aksha~1\AppData\Local\Temp/ipykernel_31264/2689222803.py in 1 for i in itertools.zip_longest(subregion_values,disti_values,fillvalue="ANZ"): ----> 2 data_output = data.query(f"{column_name} == i[0] & Year>=2021 & output == 1 & {col_name} == i1")

I expect my output to have 5 csv files generated in the folder because there are 5 unique combination of region and supplier that meet filter criteria of year and output

update - zip_longest - incorrect output

Solution

  • Use @ for pass variables to query, for columns names are correct f-strings:

    #i, j are same like i[0], i[1]
    for i, j in itertools.zip_longest(region_values,supplier_values,fillvalue="ANZ"):
        data_output = data.query(f"{column_name} == @i & year>=2021 & output == 1 & {col_name} == @j")
    

    Your solution also workign with @:

    for i in itertools.zip_longest(region_values,supplier_values,fillvalue="ANZ"):
        data_output = data.query(f"{column_name} == @i[0] & year>=2021 & output == 1 & {col_name} == @i[1]")
    

    Also is possible use f-strings for variables, but need pass repr for representation of i variables:

    for i in itertools.zip_longest(region_values,supplier_values,fillvalue="ANZ"):
        data_output = data.query(f"{column_name} == {repr(i[0])} & year>=2021 & output == 1 & {col_name} == {repr(i[1])}")
