ninjaclient 0.1.3

A client for querying data from the Renewables Ninja API.

NinjaClient

NinjaClient is a Python library designed to simplify accessing and querying data from the Renewables Ninja API. It provides an easy-to-use interface for fetching detailed renewable energy data, including solar and wind energy generation estimates. Whether you're conducting research, analyzing energy markets, or building renewable energy forecasting models, NinjaClient offers the tools you need to get the data quickly and efficiently.

Features

• Fetch solar generation data based on location, time, and panel specifications.
• Retrieve wind energy data by specifying turbine details, location, and time range.
• Handle API rate limiting gracefully with built-in waiting and retry mechanisms.
• Simplify the process of working with renewable energy data for analysis and modeling.

Installation

To install NinjaClient, you need Python 3.9 or later. It's recommended to install NinjaClient within a virtual environment. Run the following command to install:

pip install ninjaclient

Quick Start

Here's a quick example to get you started with NinjaClient:

from ninjaclient import NinjaClient

# Initialize the client with your API token
ninja_client  = NinjaClient(web_token='YOUR_API_TOKEN_HERE')

df_countries = ninja_client.get_countries()
limits = ninja_client.get_limits()

# Fetch wind generation data
df_wind, wind_meta = ninja_client.get_wind_dataframe(
    lat=56,
    lon=6,
    date_from="2000-01-01",
    date_to="2001-12-31"
)

# Fetch solar generation data
df_solar, solar_meta = ninja_client.get_solar_dataframe(
    lat=56,
    lon=6,
    date_from="2000-01-01",
    date_to="2001-12-31"
)

The API Token you can find under your Renewable Ninja profile.
