Apologies for the confusing naming - pypi doesn’t allow the use of underscores in package names, while python doesn’t allow dashes in module names. As a result, the package name is pitchfork-api, but it is pitchfork_api everywhere else.
Installation
You can get it from python package index:
pip install pitchfork-api
You can also clone the repository, but note that pitchfork depends on beautifulsoup4 for HTML parsing so you first have to install beautifulsoup4 yourself !!!
git clone https://github.com/tejassharma96/pitchfork_api
