Python StackExchange API Client
Project description
Python API client for StackExchange APIv2.1
## Installation
- ### To Run
pip install pystex
### To Develop Nothing specific now
## Usage
from pystex import Stackexchange from pystex import APIError
client = Stackexchange({Your API Key})
- try:
result = client.users.get()
- except APIError as e:
print e
In case of having variables for an API call. For example:
http://api.stackexchange.com/2.1/tags/python/top-answerers/all_time?pagesize=30&site=stackoverflow
Please note the API tags/{tag}/top-answerers allow a tag to be a variable. In such cases. It’s safe to use __getattr__() directly. The pystex for above example will be:
skill = ‘python’ result = api_client.tags.__getattr__(skill).__getattr__(‘top-answerers’).all_time.get(pagesize=30, page=1)
It’s also worth to note API url with hyphen isn’t allowed in Python language, thus __getattr__() was used.
