Package: thinknum
ThinknumAs companies move their business operations to the Internet, new data trails are being created that can provide unique insights on these companies. Thinknum Alternative Data indexes all of these data trails in one platform, providing investors with critical data points that others miss.Installationpip install thinknumQueryImport library.from thinknum import QueryTo authenticate, you must first obtain a client_id and client_secret from your assigned Thinknum account manager. Your client_secret must not be shared or exposed via publicly accessible resources (such as browser client-side scripting).q=Query(client_id='Your client id',client_secret='Your client secret')The default timeout is 180 seconds. If you need to change timeout seconds, you can configure it with the timeout argument.q=Query(client_id='Your client id',client_secret='Your client secret',timeout=300)No timeout error happen if you set it to None.q=Query(client_id='Your client id',client_secret='Your client secret',timeout=None)If you need to use a proxy, you can configure it with the proxies argument.proxies={"http":"http://10.10.1.10:3128","https":"http://10.10.1.10:1080",}q=Query(client_id='Your client id',client_secret='Your client secret',proxies=proxies)Requests can ignore verifying the SSL certficate if you set verify to False. By default, verify is set to True.q=Query(client_id='Your client id',client_secret='Your client secret',verify=False)You will get a list of datasets, each of which has the dataset id and its display_name.q.get_dataset_list()You will get dataset's metadata.q.get_dataset_metadata(dataset_id='job_listings')It's possible to limit the dataset list to a specific ticker by specific a "ticker" query parameter. For example, getting all datasets available for Apple Inc:q.get_ticker_dataset_list(query='nasdaq:aapl')You can search for tickers.q.get_ticker_list(query="tesla")You can also search for tickers of particular datasetq.get_ticker_list(query="tesla",dataset_id='job_listings')You can retrieve data for specific dataset and tickers with various filters. To retrieve data lulu's job listings in 2020, an example request is:q.add_ticker('nasdaq:lulu')# Add tickerq.add_filter(column='as_of_date',type='>=',value=["2020-01-01"])q.add_filter(column='as_of_date',type='<=',value=["2020-12-31"])q.add_sort(column='as_of_date',order='asc')# Add Sortq.get_data(dataset_id='job_listings')# Retrieve dataYou can retrieve data with OR filters. To retrieve lulu's job listings which title hassalesor description hassalesin 2020, an example request is:q.add_ticker('nasdaq:aapl')# Add tickerq.add_filter(column='as_of_date',type='>=',value=["2020-01-01"])q.add_filter(column='as_of_date',type='<=',value=["2020-12-31"])root_condition=q.add_condition(match='any')q.add_filter(column='title',type='...',value='sales',condition=root_condition)q.add_filter(column='description',type='...',value='sales',condition=root_condition)q.get_data(dataset_id='job_listings')# Retrieve dataYou can retrieve data with more complicated filters. To retrieve lulu's sales job in 2020 or marketing job in 2021:q.add_ticker('nasdaq:aapl')# Add tickerq.add_filter(column='as_of_date',type='>=',value=["2020-01-01"])q.add_filter(column='as_of_date',type='<=',value=["2020-12-31"])root_condition=q.add_condition(match='any',)c1=q.add_condition(match='all',condition=root_condition)q.add_filter(column='title',type='...',value='sales',condition=c1)q.add_filter(column='as_of_date',type='>=',value=["2020-01-01"],condition=c1)q.add_filter(column='as_of_date',type='<=',value=["2020-12-31"],condition=c1)c2=q.add_condition(match='all',condition=root_condition)q.add_filter(column='title',type='...',value='marketing',condition=c2)q.add_filter(column='as_of_date',type='>=',value=["2021-01-01"],condition=c2)q.add_filter(column='as_of_date',type='<=',value=["2021-12-31"],condition=c2)q.get_data(dataset_id='job_listings')# Retrieve dataPlease note that the maximum depth of condition is two.You can also specifystartandlimit. The default values are1and100000.q.get_data(
    dataset_id='job_listings', 
    start=1,
    limit=1000
)Sometimes you only need get aggregated results for a dataset. In such cases you can retrieve them through theaddGroupandaddAggregationfunctions.q.add_ticker('nasdaq:lulu')# Add tickerq.add_group(column='as_of_date')# Add groupq.add_aggregation(column='dataset__entity__entity_ticker__ticker__ticker',type='count')# Add aggregationq.add_sort(column='as_of_date',order='asc')# Add sortq.get_data(dataset_id='job_listings')There a few functions that you can apply to queries to gather even more insight into the data. You can retrieve a listing of the available functions in a dataset with thegetDatasetMetadatafunction. For example, there isnearbyfunction forstoredataset.q.add_ticker('nasdaq:lulu')q.add_function(function='nearby',parameters={"dataset_type":"dataset","dataset":"store","tickers":["nyse:ua"],"entities":[],"distance":5,"is_include_closed":False})q.get_data(dataset_id='store')Also, you can applynearestfunction tostoredataset like the following code.q.add_ticker('nasdaq:lulu')q.add_function(function='nearest',parameters={"dataset_type":"dataset","dataset":"store","tickers":["nyse:ua"],"entities":[],"ranks":[1],"is_include_closed":False})q.get_data(dataset_id='store')Also, you can applysalesfunction toCar Inventorydataset like the following code.q.add_ticker('nyse:kmx')q.add_function(function='sales',parameters={"lookahead_day_count":2,"start_date":"2020-01-01","end_date":"2020-01-07"})q.get_data(dataset_id='car_inventory')Also, you can reset entire query.q.reset_query()Also, you can reset tickers.q.reset_tickers()Also, you can reset filters.q.reset_filters()Also, you can reset functions.q.reset_functions()Also, you can reset groups.q.reset_groups()Also, you can reset aggregations.q.reset_aggregations()Also, you can reset sorts.q.reset_sorts()HistoryImport library.from thinknum import HistoryLike theQuerylibrary, you must authenticate to utilizeHistorylibrary.h=History(client_id='Your client id',client_secret='Your client secret')If you need to use a proxy, you can configure it with the proxies argument.proxies={"http":"http://10.10.1.10:3128","https":"http://10.10.1.10:1080",}h=History(client_id='Your client id',client_secret='Your client secret',proxies=proxies)Requests can ignore verifying the SSL certficate if you set verify to False. By default, verify is set to True.h=History(client_id='Your client id',client_secret='Your client secret',verify=False)To retrieve a list of available history for a dataset:h.get_history_list(dataset_id='store')You can view the metadata for the historical file:h.get_history_metadata(dataset_id='store',history_date='2020-03-09')To download a CSV of the historical data:h.download(dataset_id='store',history_date='2020-03-09')You can specify download path:h.download(dataset_id='store',history_date='2020-03-09',download_path='/Users/sangwonseo/Downloads')UploadImport library.from thinknum import UploadLike theQuerylibrary, you must authenticate to utilizeUploadlibrary.u=Upload(client_id='Your client id',client_secret='Your client secret')You can upload and import CSV to Thinknum.result=u.upload_csv('/Users/sangwonseo/Downloads/data.csv')You can check status of CSV.u.check_upload_status(upload_id=result['id'])For more details about Library or APIPlease visithttps://docs.thinknum.com/docsIf you are interested in ThinknumPlease request demo athttps://www.thinknum.com/demo/If you have any questionsPlease email atcustomersuccess@thinknum.comLicenseMIT
