Project description

#lexisnexisapi

##About lexisnexisapi: lexisnexisapi is a module designed to work with certain LexisNexis DAAS APIs.
Currently, this module only works with the Metabase API, and requires a Metabase API key. the Metabase module within lexisnexisapi creates an instance of the MbSearch class based on a query provided by the end user. It takes the JSON response from the Metabase API and places it within a Python class.
It is also possible to create an instance of a class for a specific article, to simplify further analysis. This class can retrieve dataframes, index terms, or any other attributes retrieved from the API HTTP response. The lexisnexisapi is a work in progress... and may not be regularly maintained.

##Requirements Beyond system requirements, lexisnexisapi requires an active Metabase API key. #Required modules ##Configuration ##Troubleshooting & FAQ The current version requires a myCredentials.json file that does not download with the module. The manual workaround is to add a myCredentials.json file to the module folder... future versions of this module should remove this manual process. lexisnexisapi has limited built-in error handling and should be considered a beta module. There is no guarantee that lexisnexisapi will work in all environments, and ##Maintainers This module is not regularly maintained. It was written and is updated by the customer service integration specialist within the DAAS customer success team at LexisNexis. It is not, however, a regularly maintained product, and LexisNexis makes no representation as to its safety or effectiveness.
