Glassnode API client for python.

Overview
This is a very simple and intuitive library for accessing the Glassnode API.
Quick Start
To start using the library, first install the package.
pip install glassnode
Then, just instanciate the GlassnodeClient
providing your API key and start making requests.
Here's a code sample that demonstrates how to get the full history of BTC addresses count.
from glassnode import GlassnodeClient
api_key = ""
client = GlassnodeClient(api_key)
data = client.get("addresses", "count", {"a": "BTC"})
How to make requests
In order to request any metric, just call the get
method on the GlassnodeClient
instance passing the following parameters:
- domain: the metric's domain.
- metric: the metric name.
- params: the dict of the query parameters to pass along to the request.
The difference between domain and metric is actually very simple. Glassnode has designed it's API in a very modular and intuitive way, grouping metrics by domain. All metrics endpoints follow this pattern: https://api.glassnode.com/v1/metrics/{domain}/{metric}. For a complete list of domains, metrics and params, see their official API docs (https://docs.glassnode.com).
Here's another example. This time we'll use the client to get both the STH and LTH NUPL for the market cycle from the 2016 halving to the 2020 halving, with a 24h resolution.
from glassnode import GlassnodeClient
api_key = ""
client = GlassnodeClient(api_key)
since = 1589148000 # July 9 2016
until = 1468015200 # May 11 2020
resolution = "24h"
params = {"a": "BTC", "s": since, "u": until, "i": resolution}
sth_nupl = client.get("indicators", "nupl_less_155", params)
lth_nupl = client.get("indicators", "nupl_more_155", params)
