Python module to interact with the CBIBS API.

• CBIBS
• API Documentation

Installation

To get the package, execute:

pip install python-cbibs

Usage

View the CBIBS API documentation on CBIBS. By default the response output will be in JSON format. If you would like XML, configure your instance to use XML (see example below).

Then set up an CBIBS instance, set your API key, and make any available requests.

from cbibs.buoy import Cbibs

# Create CBIBS instance
buoy = Cbibs(api_key='API_KEY')
buoy_xml = Cbibs(api_key='API_KEY', response_format='xml')

# Get all current readings from all stations
latest_all = buoy.get_current_readings_all_stations()

# Get the latest station readings from AN
station_readings = buoy.get_station_readings('AN')

# Query a specific station with parameters
station_variable = buoy.query_station(
    station_name="AN",
    start_date='2020-04-01T10:00:00z',
    end_date='2020-04-01T20:00:00z',
    variable="sea_water_temperature"
)
