File Requirements

Main Script Files

A list of files needed to run the code - this can be reduced to just the main file if it is organised in such a way that related files are referenced clearly through comments or loaded in the main script themselves

Dependent Data Sets

Data Sets available within the SRS and data sets that are ingested for this project should be listed here.

Links to data sets should be removed from the code or handled using “secrets”/unpublished settings files. This is to ensure data access only to those authorised to use it.

Required Passwords Secrets or Tokens

Sometimes there are elements that can’t be shared widely; information about these should be listed here with details of how the user can access them. Note that including elements that require very specific permissions may discourage someone from using your code.
