pyeutils is a lightweight Python wrapper for the NCBI E-utilities (Entrez Programming Utilities) API. It simplifies programmatic access to the vast array of biomedical data available from NCBI, including PubMed, Gene, Protein, Nucleotide, and more.
NCBI’s E-utilities are a powerful but low-level REST interface. pyeutils abstracts the complexity and provides a more Pythonic way to interact with the API.
Features
Convenient interface to NCBI’s Entrez databases
Supports key E-utilities: esearch, efetch, esummary
epost, elink, egquery, and espell not yet implemented
Handles request throttling and query parameters
Returns structured Python objects (e.g., dicts, lists, or parsed XML/JSON)
Compatible with Python 3.9+
Installation
Install via pip:
pip install pyeutilsQuick Start
import pyeutils
client = pyeutils.NcbiEutils(API_TOKEN)
result = client.esearch('assembly', 'GCF_000005845.2')
