Retriever

Julia wrapper for the Data Retriever software.

Data Retriever automates the tasks of finding, downloading, and cleaning up publicly available data, and then stores them in a local database or as .csv files. Simply put, it's a package manager for data. This allows data analysts to spend a majority of their time in analysing rather than in cleaning up or managing data.
