A Python package that provides a common interface for implementing job search drivers for The Pudim Hunter platform.

Features

• Common interface for implementing job board drivers
• Standardized job search query format
• Normalized job posting data structure
• Type hints and validation using Pydantic
• Async support for better performance
• Built-in error handling

Usage

Installation

You can install the package directly from PyPI:

# Install directly using pip
pip install pudim-hunter-driver

# Or add to your requirements.txt
pudim-hunter-driver>=0.0.2  # Replace with the version you need

For development installations, see the Development section.

Interface Overview

This package provides the base interface and models for implementing job search drivers. To create a driver for a specific job board, you'll need to create a new package that depends on pudim-hunter-driver and implement the JobDriver interface.

1. JobDriver (ABC) - The base interface that all drivers must implement:

   • async fetch_jobs(query: JobQuery) -> JobList
   • async validate_credentials() -> bool

2. Data Models:

   • JobQuery - Search parameters
   • Job - Normalized job posting data
   • JobList - Container for search results

3. Exceptions:

   • DriverError - Base exception
   • AuthenticationError - For credential issues
   • QueryError - For search query issues
   • RateLimitError - For rate limiting issues

Example Implementation

Here's a basic example of how to implement a job driver:

from datetime import datetime
from pudim_hunter_driver.driver import JobDriver
from pudim_hunter_driver.models import Job, JobList, JobQuery
from pudim_hunter_driver.exceptions import AuthenticationError

class MyJobBoardDriver(JobDriver):
    async def validate_credentials(self) -> bool:
        # Implement your authentication logic
        return True

    async def fetch_jobs(self, query: JobQuery) -> JobList:
        # Implement your job search logic
        jobs = [
            Job(
                id="job-1",
                title="Python Developer",
                company="Example Corp",
                location="Remote",
                description="Join our team!",
                url="https://example.com/jobs/1",
                remote=True,
                posted_at=datetime.now(),
                source="MyJobBoard"
            )
        ]
        
        return JobList(
            jobs=jobs,
            total_results=1,
            page=query.page,
            items_per_page=query.items_per_page
        )

For a complete working example with tests, check out the DummyDriver implementation in the tests/drivers/dummy_driver.py file.

Installation

From PyPI (coming soon):

pip install pudim-hunter-driver

From source:

git clone [e-mail]:luismr/pudim-hunter-driver.git
cd pudim-hunter-driver
pip install -r requirements.txt

For development:

pip install -e .

Virtual Environment Setup

We strongly recommend using a virtual environment for development and testing. This isolates the project dependencies from your system Python packages.

Prerequisites

• Python 3.9 or higher
• pip (Python package installer)
• venv module (usually comes with Python 3)

macOS and Linux

1. Open Terminal and navigate to the project directory:

cd pudim-hunter-driver

2. Create a virtual environment:

python3.9 -m venv venv

3. Activate the virtual environment:

source venv/bin/activate

4. Install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .  # for development

5. To deactivate when done:

deactivate

Windows

1. Open Command Prompt or PowerShell and navigate to the project directory:

cd pudim-hunter-driver

2. Create a virtual environment:

python -m venv venv

3. Activate the virtual environment:

• In Command Prompt:

.\venv\Scripts\activate.bat

• In PowerShell:

.\venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1

4. Install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .  # for development

5. To deactivate when done:

deactivate

Troubleshooting

macOS/Linux

• If python3.9 is not found, install it using your package manager:
  • macOS (with Homebrew): brew install python@3.9
  • Ubuntu/Debian: sudo apt-get install python39 python39-venv
  • CentOS/RHEL: sudo yum install python39 python39-devel

Windows

• Ensure Python is added to your PATH during installation
• If PowerShell execution policy prevents activation:

  Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser
  

Development

1. Create and activate a virtual environment:

python3.9 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

2. Install in development mode:

pip install -e .
