Introduction

boardgamegeek is a Python library which makes it easy to access data from BoardGameGeek using their official XML API.

It’s an almost completely rewritten fork of libBGG.

Documentation

Documentation is available at http://boardgamegeek.readthedocs.org/

Usage

Here’s a quick usage example:

>>> from boardgamegeek import BoardGameGeek
>>> bgg = BoardGameGeek()
>>> g = bgg.game("Android: Netrunner")
>>> g.name
'Android: Netrunner'
>>> g.id
124742
>>> for n in g.alternative_names: print n.encode("utf-8")
...
安卓纪元:矩阵潜袭

If you want to use the disk cache:

>>> bgg = BoardGameGeek(cache="sqlite:///tmp/cache.db?ttl=3600&fast_save=0")
>>> g = bgg.game("Celtica")
>>> g.id
21293

To Do

  • Not all the information exposed by the official API is stored into the Python objects. Need to improve this.

  • Try to support the other sites from the boardgamegeek’s family

  • Improve documentation :)

  • Improve unit testing

Contributions/suggestions are welcome.
