A simple API to traverse Craigslist endpoints
Project description
Streamline your Craigslist queries with an API that traverses url endpoints. This library goes hand-in-hand with python-craigslist.
Installation
pip install python-craigslist-meta
Examples
Let’s find every car and truck for sale around the world. python-craigslist is required for this example.
from craigslist import CraigslistForSale
from craigslist_meta import Site
for site in Site.all():
if site.has_area():
for area in site:
auto = CraigslistForSale(site=site.key, area=area.key, category='cta')
# fetch posts from auto
else:
auto = CraigslistForSale(site=site.key, category='cta')
# fetch posts from auto
Let’s get Craigslist urls of areas in the San Francisco Bay Area.
from craigslist_meta import Site
sfbay = Site("sfbay")
for area in sfbay:
print(area.url)
# https://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/
# https://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/
# https://sfbay.craigslist.org/pen/
# https://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/
# ...
We can also work with countries. Let’s get site keys in Germany.
from craigslist_meta import Country
germany = Country("germany")
for site in germany:
print(site.key)
# berlin
# bremen
# cologne
# dresden
# ...
Let’s get titles of sites in Japan.
from craigslist_meta import Country
japan = Country("japan")
for site in japan:
print(site.title)
# 福岡
# 広島
# 名古屋
# 沖縄
# ...
Finally, we can go a step further and work with regions. Let’s get subdomains of countries in Africa.
from craigslist_meta import Region
africa = Region("africa")
print(africa.children)
# ['egypt', 'ethiopia', 'ghana', ... ]
