Getting Started

To get a local copy up and running follow these simple steps.

Prerequisites

• Python 3.9 or higher (as specified in pyproject.toml)
• A Shovels API key

Installation

For users:

• Install using poetry (recommended) or pip:

  poetry add pyshovels
  

  or

  pip install pyshovels
  

For contributors:

• Fork and clone the repo and install in editable mode:

  git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/pyshovels.git
  cd pyshovels
  

  then

  poetry install
  

  or

  pip install -e .
  

Setting your API key:

• Set your Shovels API key as an environment variable (recommended):
  • Add your Shovels API key to a .env file - look at the .env.example file for an example
  • Or set it as an environment variable directly

    export SHOVELS_API_KEY="your-api-key"
    

  • Then, load the environment variables using the load_env function:

    from pyshovels import load_env, ShovelsAPI
    load_env(env_path="./path/to/.env")  # not necessary if you set the API key as an environment variable directly
    shovels = ShovelsAPI()
    

• Or pass the API key as an argument to the ShovelsAPI class:

  from pyshovels import ShovelsAPI
  shovels = ShovelsAPI(api_key="your-api-key")
  

  ⚠️ Note: If passing the API key as an argument, be careful not to accidentally share it with others.

Usage

Look at the examples folder for usage examples.

For more detailed examples on how to use the Shovels API, please refer to the official documentation.
