Safeguarding Adults is a statutory duty for Councils with Adult Social Services Responsibilities in England under the Care Act 2014, in order to safeguard vulnerable adults from abuse or neglect.
The data is collected directly from these councils in the Safeguarding Adults Collection (SAC) and the outputs produced from the code aim to inform users about aspects of safeguarding activity at national, regional and local level.
Run the following command to set up your environment correctly from the root directory
python -m venv .venv
.\.venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1
python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
If, while developing this package, you change the installed packages, please update the environment file using
pip list --format=freeze > requirements.txt
For Visual Studio Code it is necessary that you change your default interpreter to be the virtual environment you just created .venv. To do this use the shortcut Ctrl-Shift-P, search for Python: Select interpreter and select .venv from the list.
Please check that the parameters, including the paths to the input and output files, are correct in publication_outputs\params.json.
You can then create the publication (from the publication_outputs directory) using
python main.py
