py_adsb_historical_data_client

Python client to retrieve historical data from adsb databases

Installation

pip install py-adsb-historical-data-client

Usage

from datetime import datetime
from py_adsb_historical_data_client.historical import download_heatmap, download_trace

# Download heatmap data for a specific timestamp
timestamp = datetime(2023, 6, 15, 14, 30)
heatmap_data = download_heatmap(timestamp)

# Download trace data for a specific aircraft
icao = "ABC123"
trace_data = download_trace(icao, timestamp)

Development

Test Structure

• Unit Tests: Mock external HTTP requests and test all code paths
• Integration Tests: Make real HTTP requests to test actual API endpoints (marked with @pytest.mark.integration)
• Test Coverage: Comprehensive coverage including edge cases, error handling, and input validation

Available Test Commands

Command	Description
python run_tests.py	Run unit tests only
python run_tests.py --all	Run all tests including integration tests
python run_tests.py --coverage	Run tests with coverage report

The test suite covers:

• ✅ Successful data downloads
• ✅ HTTP error handling (404, 500, etc.)
• ✅ Network exception handling
• ✅ Date formatting and URL construction
• ✅ ICAO code processing and case handling
• ✅ Time rounding for heatmap intervals
• ✅ Edge cases (short ICAO codes, etc.)
