gpcc

Python library and CLI tool to fetch information from GCP Browser.

This is a standardized classifier of products used across companies. The classification, however, cannot be inferred from the product barcode or even packaging. Companies use it only internally.

Installation

python3 -m pip install gpcc

CLI usage

# download latest JSONs for all languages
python3 -m gpcc

# download latest JSON for a specified language
python3 -m gpcc --lang nl

# download into a specified directory
python3 -m gpcc --output ./gpc-dump/

# download files in XML format
python3 -m gpcc --format xml

# download files in XLSX format
python3 -m gpcc --format xlsx
