Python3 library for working with the Philadelphia Indego Bike Share API
Project description
Indego Bike Share Python Library
About
I have tried to make a re-usable Python library for the Philadelphia Indego Bike Share API! I'm not very familiar with Python, but tried to learn by creating this.
I wrote this similarly to my existing Indego PHP library.
Check out the City of Philadelphia GitHub if you think this library is interesting!
Installation
Installation of this library should be as simple as running:
pip install indego
Compatibility
Please note that this library is only compatible with Python 3+. Python 2 is not supported.
Example
When combined with the provided Indego
class, the following code will generate the example output in the next section:
from indego import Indego
# Instantiate the Indego class
indego = Indego()
# Just get "university" stations
uni_stations = indego.get_stations('university')
print(uni_stations)
Providing a argument/filter to get_stations()
to return a list of stations only limits the results within the Indego
class.
Unfortunately, there does not appear to be a signifcant amount of documentation for the API being used nor does there seem to be any parameters available to limit the stations being retrieved from the API.
Calling get_stations()
without any arguments will return a list of all (currently, 132) stations:
$ python3 example.py
