across-client 1.1.1

No project description provided

across-client

The across-client is the NASA-ACROSS library used to access and manipulate the across-server data. What separates this package from the autogenerated sdk is that it also levarages the across-tools package to give users a single interface for all of their cross-observatory science needs.

Access

To access our observatory data (telescopes, instruments, schedues, etc) on the across-server, users DO NOT require any authentication. But if an observatory user-group wants to use the API to publish their planned/completed observing schedules they are required to register, and obtain client credentials through the website.

Installation

This repository can be installed on python (version >=3.10) environments.

#activate your python environment (conda, mamba, venv... etc)
git clone https://github.com/NASA-ACROSS/across-client.git
cd across-client
python -m pip install .

or the latest released version with pip

python -m pip install across-client

Usage

Below is a small example on how to utilize the client to access JWST Nircam performed observations. For more examples on how to access observatory science data or use our observatory tools endpoints, please go to our examples folder.

from datetime import datetime
from across.client import Client

# client credentials are only required for publishing schedules
ACROSS_SERVER_ID: str = "..."
ACROSS_SERVER_SECRET: str = "..."

client = Client(client_id=ACROSS_SERVER_ID, client_secret=ACROSS_SERVER_SECRET)

nircam = client.instrument.get_many(name="nircam")[0]

nircam_observations = client.observation.get_many(
   instrument_ids=[nircam.id],
   status="performed",
   date_range_begin=datetime(...),
   date_range_end=datetime(...),
)
