New data source: Dimensions?

[lambdamusic]

Hi, I was wondering whether there are any plans to integrate Dimensions.ai as a data source.

Full disclosure:
I am the main maintainer of Dimcli - a Python client for Dimensions API - hence I'd love to be able to process extracted Dimensions data using pyscisci!

Hi @lambdamusic -- yes! there is even a draft dimensions.ai data formatter hanging around. The effort was put on hold because the current package assumes access to full data snapshots (which it subdivides down) and needs additional infrastructure to pull from APIs (to build the necessary data out). But if we assume the user already defined the api calls necessary for their analysis, it should be possible to integrate the data source in the near future.

That's great, looking forward to it.
Anything we can do to help, let us know!
