CityIQ API
==========

This module and command line tool provides access to the CityIQ_ API, with
particular focus on getting metadata and parking events. The interface includes
a basic access object for getting metadata and events, a scraper object for
mass downloading events, and a command line tool for downloading and processing
events.

Installation
============

Use pip::

pip install cityiq

Configuration
=============

The program requires a configuration file that hold credentials and urls. You can generate a default configuration with ::

ciq_config -w

The generated file is configured for the San Diego system. To you this system , you will just need to add your client id and secret.

The code will look for this file in several places in this order:

- The path specified by the ``CITYIQ_CONFIG`` env var
- ``.city-iq.yaml`` in the current dir
- ``city-iq.yaml`` in the current dir
- ``.city-iq.yaml`` in the user's home dir

Use
===

The :py:class:`cityiq.api.CityIq` object is the main entry point for the API. It is constructed on a
:py:class:`cityiq.config.Config` object. For mass downloading and processing events, the :py:class`cityiq.scrape
.EventScraper` is the main object, also constructed from a ``Config``
