Package: hdsr-fewspy
ContextCreated: April 2023Author: Renier Kramer,renier.kramer@hdsr.nlPython version: >=3.7DescriptionA python project to request data (locations, time-series, etc.) from a HDSR FEWS PiWebService: FEWS-WIS or FEWS-EFCIS.
Note that this project only works on HDSR's internal network, so within the VDI. The project combines the best from
two existing fewspy projects:fewspyandhkvfewspy. On top of that it adds client-side authentication,
authorisation, and throttling. The latter is to minimize request load on HDSR's internal FEWS instances.Hdsr_fewspy API supports 9 different API calls that can return 6 different output formats:xml_file_in_download_dir: The xml response is written to a .xml file in your download_dirjson_file_in_download_dir: The json response is written to a .json file in your download_dircsv_file_in_download_dir: The json response is converted to csv and written to a .csv file in your download_dirxml_response_in_memory: the xml response is returned memory meaning you get a list with one or more responsesjson_response_in_memory: the json response is returned memory meaning you get a list with one or more responsespandas_dataframe_in_memory: the json response is converted to a pandas dataframe meaning you get one dataframeAPI callSupported outputsNotes1 get_parameters4, 5, 6Returns 1 object (xml/json response or dataframe)2 get_filters4, 5Returns 1 object (xml/json response)3 get_locations4, 5Returns 1 object (xml/json response)4 get_qualifiers4, 6Returns 1 object (xml response or dataframe)5 get_timezone_id4, 5Returns 1 object (xml/json response)6 get_samplesTODONot implemented yet7 get_time_series_single4, 5, 6Returns 1 dataframe or a list >=1 xml/json responses8 get_time_series_multi1, 2, 3Returns a list with downloaded files (1 .csv or >=1 .xml/.json per unique location_parameter_qualifier)9 get_time_series_statistics4, 5Returns 1 object (xml/json response)DefaultPiSettingsChoices:Several predefined pi_settings exists for point data and for area (e.g. averaged all points within an area). We mainly distinguish three levels of data:raw: raw measurements from field stations. Contains valid and invalid data but lags little time with field measurements.work: this data is being validated by a HDSR person (data validator CAW). This data might change every day.validated: data without invalid data. Note that this data is published months after the actual measurement.The names of the pi_settings are (see class DefaultPiSettingsChoices):wis_production_point_rawwis_production_point_workwis_production_point_validatedwis_production_area_soilmoisturewis_production_area_precipitation_wiwbwis_production_area_precipitation_radarcorrectionwis_production_area_evaporation_wiwb_satdatawis_production_area_evaporation_waterwatchUsageBelow you find 9 examples for the 9 different requests. In hdsr_fewspy/examples/ you also find code to download
discharge (point), soilmoisture (area), evaporation (area), and precipitation (area) time-series.PreparationOnly once needed: ensure you have a github account with a GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN. Read topic
'GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN' below what to do with this token.Only once needed: ensure your github username is registered in [user and auth settings] permissions.csv file. If
not, ask the maintainer of hdsr_fewspy to fix this.You can create a hdsr_fewspy API in two ways (the first dominates the second). We advise to use the second:with API argument 'github_personal_access_token', thusapi = hdsr_fewspy.Api(<github_personal_access_token>).or with API argument 'secrets_env_path' (defaults to 'G:/secrets.env'), thusapi = hdsr_fewspy.Api(<your_secrets_env_path>).
The .env file must have a row:GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN=<your_github_token>Only once per project: install hdsr_fewspy dependency:pip install hdsr-fewspy 
# or 
conda install hdsr-fewspy --channel hdsr-midExample simple 'create API instance':import hdsr_fewspy

api = hdsr_fewspy.Api()Example sophisticated 'create API instance':import hdsr_fewspy

# Optionally, you can specify several API arguments:
# github_email: str, 
# github_personal_access_token: str
# secrets_env_path: str or pathlib.Path
# pi_settings: hdsr_fewspy.PiSettings 
# output_directory_root: str or pathlib.path

# option 1
# For example in case of pi_settings, you can use predefined settings (see topic 'DefaultPiSettingsChoices' above)
api = hdsr_fewspy.Api(pi_settings=hdsr_fewspy.DefaultPiSettingsChoices.wis_production_point_work)

# option 2
# Or create your own pi_settings:
custom_settings = hdsr_fewspy.PiSettings(
   settings_name="does not matter blabla",         
   document_version=1.25,
   ssl_verify=True,
   domain="localhost",
   port=8080,
   service="FewsWebServices",
   filter_id="INTERNAL-API",
   module_instance_ids="WerkFilter",
   time_zone=hdsr_fewspy.TimeZoneChoices.eu_amsterdam.value,  # = 1.0 (only affects get_time_series dataframe and csv)
)
api = hdsr_fewspy.Api(pi_settings=custom_settings)

# option 3
# In case you want to download responses to file, then you need to specify an output_directory_root 
# The files will be downloaded in a subdir: output_directory_root/hdsr_fewspy_<datetime>/<files_will_be_downloaded_here>
api = hdsr_fewspy.Api(output_directory_root=<path_to_a_dir>)Examples API callsBelow you see 9 examples using api option 3 above.Moreover, in hdsr_fewspy/examples/ you find examples for point and area downloads.get_parametersdf = api.get_parameters(output_choice=hdsr_fewspy.OutputChoices.pandas_dataframe_in_memory)

This token is related to your github user account, so you don't need a token per repo/organisation/etc.
You can [create a token yourself][github personal token]. In short:Login github.com with your account (user + password)Ensure you have at least read-permission for the hdsr-mid repo(s) you want to interact with. To verify, browse to

a. click with mouse on left side of screen
b. press F12
c. select 'Embedded servers'
d. select 'start embedded tomcat web services'

Note2: env_directory can be anywhere, it does not have to be in your code project> conda env create --prefix <env_directory><env_name> --file <path_to_project>/environment.yml
# example: conda env create --prefix C:/Users/xxx/.conda/envs/project_xx --file C:/Users/code_projects/xx/environment.yml
> conda info --envs  # verify that <env_name> (project_xx) is in this listStart the application from any directory:> conda activate <env_name>
# At any location:
> (<env_name>) python <path_to_project>/main.pyTest the application:> conda activate <env_name>
> cd <path_to_project>
> pytest  # make sure pytest is installed (conda install pytest)List all conda environments on your machine:At any location:
> conda info --envsDelete a conda environment:Get directory where environment is located 
> conda info --envs
Remove the enviroment
> conda env remove --name <env_name>
Finally, remove the left-over directory by handWrite dependencies to environment.yml:The goal is to keep the .yml as short as possible (not include sub-dependencies), yet make the environment
reproducible. Why? If you do 'conda install matplotlib' you also install sub-dependencies like pyqt, qt
icu, and sip. You should not include these sub-dependencies in your .yml as:including sub-dependencies result in an unnecessary strict environment (difficult to solve when conflicting)sub-dependencies will be installed when dependencies are being installed> conda activate <conda_env_name>

Recommended:
> conda env export --from-history --no-builds | findstr -v "prefix" > --file <path_to_project>/environment_new.yml   

Alternative:
> conda env export --no-builds | findstr -v "prefix" > --file <path_to_project>/environment_new.yml 

--from-history: 
    Only include packages that you have explicitly asked for, as opposed to including every package in the 
    environment. This flag works regardless how you created the environment (through CMD or Anaconda Navigator).
--no-builds:
    By default, the YAML includes platform-specific build constraints. If you transfer across platforms (e.g. 
    win32 to 64) omit the build info with '--no-builds'.Pip and Conda:If a package is not available on all conda channels, but available as pip package, one can install pip as a dependency.
Note that mixing packages from conda and pip is always a potential problem: conda calls pip, but pip does not know
how to satisfy missing dependencies with packages from Anaconda repositories.> conda activate <env_name>
> conda install pip
> pip install <pip_package>The environment.yml might look like:channels:
  - defaults
dependencies:
  - <a conda package>=<version>
  - pip
  - pip:
    - <a pip package>==<version>You can also write a requirements.txt file:> pip list --format=freeze > <path_to_project>/requirements.txt
