This is an unofficial Python package for interacting with APIs available at LTA DataMall.
Installing the package
Install the package using pip:
python -m pip install landtransportsg
Using the package
Pre-requisite:
Account key from LTA. Request for API access.
The main steps are:
Import a client class.
Instantiate an object from the client class.
Call a function on that object.
For more information, refer to the documentation.
Usage overview
Interacting with LTA DataMall’s API is done through one of four clients, where each client corresponds with a set of endpoints.
The five clients are:
ActiveMobility
ElectricVehicle
Geospatial
PublicTransport
Traffic
Each client contains several public functions, one function per endpoint. A function’s name is the same as its corresponding endpoint’s ending path.
Some functions accept named arguments, where an argument corresponds with a parameter that the endpoint accepts.
Why have separate clients instead of one single client?
Without knowing how LTA DataMall’s API will evolve, and noticing that the endpoints were themselves already partitioned into sets, it seemed like a good idea to keep each set of endpoints in its own contextual client. This allows for each set of endpoints to be customised on their own, e.g. the PublicTransport passenger volume-related endpoints allow for a string to be returned, whereas the other endpoints return a list.
