Project description
# Eclipse Scraper
Python module for scraping NASA’s eclipse site into usable CZML documents
## Overview
This module is designed for scraping tabular data for the tracks of eclipse events from NASA’s eclipse website ([http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/](http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/)) and converting such events into CZML documents for display with [Cesium](https://github.com/AnalyticalGraphicsInc/cesium). This module is developed in tandem with [EclipseTracks.org](http://eclipsetracks.org] ([source](https://github.com/Frencil/eclipsetracks)).
Eclipse Predictions by Fred Espenak, NASA’s GSFC.
## Dependencies
This module requires [czml](https://github.com/cleder/czml), the Python CZML reader/writer.
## Testing
Run tests in the top-level directory like so:
` python setup.py test `
Eclipse Scraper is continually tested with [Travis CI](https://travis-ci.org/Frencil/eclipsescraper).
