# Particle.One Data API

## Description

This package contains a Python client code to access data and examples of how to
use it.

- `p1_data_client_python`
  - A Python module wrapping the Data REST API and EDGAR Data REST API into a
    Pandas-friendly interface
- `notebooks/p1_data_client_example.ipynb`
  - An example Jupyter notebook showing how to use the Python module
- `notebooks/p1_data_api_v1_example.ipynb`
  - An example Jupyter notebook showing how to connect to the Data REST API
    directly
- `notebooks/p1_edgar_data_client_example.ipynb`
  - An example Jupyter notebook showing how to use the EDGAR Data REST API
- `test/client_examples.py`
  - Minimal example of API and EDGAR clients

## Prerequisites

- Python version >= 3.7

## Installation through PyPI

- You can install the Particle.One data python client in 3 different ways:

1) Install from PyPI:
   ```bash
   pip install p1_data_client_python
   ```

2) Install and build from the source
- Assuming the name of the Github repo is <GITHUB_REPO> (e.g.,
  `p1_data_client_python`)
   ```bash
   pip install git+https://github.com/ParticleDev/<INSERT_GITHUB_REPO_NAME>.git
   ```

2) Install without building the package from source:

  ```bash
  # Check out the code.
  git clone git@github.com:ParticleDev/<INSERT_GITHUB_REPO_NAME>.git
  cd p1_data_client_python

  # Create environment.
  python3 -m venv ./venv
  source venv/bin/activate
  pip install -r requirements.txt
  ```

- Test that the package is visible:

  ```bash
  python -c "import p1_data_client_python; print(p1_data_client_python)"
  <module 'p1_data_client_python' (namespace)>

  > python -c "import p1_data_client_python.version as version; print(version.VERSION)"
  ```

- When installing from source, you need to add the path of this package to
  `PYTHONPATH`, e.g.:
  ```bash
  export PYTHONPATH=$(pwd):$(pwd)/p1_data_client_python
  ```

## Getting a Particle.One token

- Go to `https://particle.one/` and request a free token
- The token looks like `e44e7c6b04ef3ea1cfb7a8a67db74751c177259e`

## Configuring through environment variables

- To use the notebooks, unit tests, and examples you need to configure the
  environment with:

  ```bash
  export P1_API_TOKEN='your_api_token_here'
  export P1_EDGAR_API_TOKEN='your_edgar_token_here'
  ```

- E.g., from `test/set_env_vars.sh`
  ```bash
  export P1_API_TOKEN='e44e7c6b04ef3ea1cfb7a8a67db74751c177259e'
  export P1_EDGAR_API_TOKEN='8c9c9458b145202c7a6b6cceaabd82023e957a46d6cf7061ed8e1c94a168f2fd'
  ```

## Run tests (only when installing from source)

- After configuring the environment variables, run all tests with:

  ```bash
  pytest -vv

  ```bash

  ```
