How do we inspect dataset sessions?

A session is really just a “special” dataset and its name is the session ID – so you can use Prodigy’s regular database commands to export or output the annotations. For example:

prodigy db-out SESSION_ID | less
prodigy db-out SESSION_ID > session.jsonl

You can also use the print recipes to get nicely formatted command line output:

prodigy ner.print-dataset SESSION_ID | less -R
prodigy textcat.print-dataset SESSION_ID | less -R

(We’re hoping to improve some of the dataset and session handling as part of the corpus management update. I’ve also been thinking about writing a little recipe that makes it easier to navigate the individual sessions. They’re all timestamped, so it won’t be difficult to group them together by year, month, week, day etc.)
