velo-sdk 0.0.5

Python SDK for accessing the VELO API for climate risk data, asset information, companies, and market indexes

VELO Python SDK

The VELO Python SDK provides a streamlined interface for interacting with the VELO API, enabling businesses to access and analyze climate risk data for companies, assets, and market indexes.

For complete API documentation visit our API docs.

Installation

pip install keyring keyrings.google-artifactregistry-auth 
pip install velo-sdk --extra-index-url https://northamerica-northeast1-python.pkg.dev/earnest-math-277914/ecofusion-py/simple/

Requirements

• Python 3.11 or higher

Authentication

The SDK requires an API key for authentication. You can pass your API key when initializing the client:

from velo_sdk.api import APIClient

client = APIClient(api_key="your-api-key")

If the api_key parameter is not provided, the API key will be inferred from the RISKTHINKING_API_KEY environment variable instead.

Features

Companies

Access company data including associated assets and market information:

# Get specific company data
company = client.companies.get_company("company-id")

# List companies with pagination
for company in client.companies.list_companies():
    print(company.name)

# Search for companies by name
results = client.companies.search_companies(name="Company Name")

# List assets owned by a company
for asset in client.companies.list_company_assets("company-id"):
    print(asset.name)

# Get climate scores for a company
scores = client.companies.get_company_climate_scores(
    "company-id", 
    pathway="SV", 
    horizon=2050
)

# Get impact scores aggregated by country
for country_score in client.companies.aggregate_company_asset_climate_scores_by_country(
    "company-id", 
    pathway="SV", 
    horizon=2050
):
    print(f"{country_score.country}: {country_score.dcr_score}")

Assets

Retrieve and analyze physical assets and their climate risk scores:

# Get asset details
asset = client.assets.get_asset("asset-id")

# List all assets with pagination
for asset in client.assets.list_assets():
    print(f"{asset.name} ({asset.asset_type})")

# Get the owner of an asset
owner = client.assets.get_asset_owner("asset-id")

Market Indexes

Access market indexes and associated climate risk analytics:

# List available market indexes
for index in client.markets.list_indexes():
    print(index.name)

# Get companies in a specific index
for company in client.markets.get_index_companies("index-id"):
    print(company.name)

# Get climate scores for an index
scores = client.markets.get_index_climate_scores(
    "index-id", 
    pathway="SV", 
    horizon=2050
)

# Get impact scores aggregated by country
for country_score in client.markets.aggregate_index_asset_climate_scores_by_country(
    "index-id", 
    pathway="SV", 
    horizon=2050
):
    print(f"{country_score.country}: {country_score.dcr_score}")

Direct API Access

For advanced use cases, you can make direct HTTP requests to any endpoint while still using your authentication credentials:

# Make a GET request with query parameters
response = client.get("/custom/endpoint", params={"param1": "value1"})

# Make a POST request with JSON body
response = client.post(
    "/custom/endpoint", 
    json={"key": "value"}
)

# Async API calls are also supported
async def make_request():
    response = await client.get_async("/custom/endpoint")
    print(response)

These methods (get, post, put, delete) and their async variants allow you to interact with any API endpoint not explicitly covered by the SDK's high-level methods.

Async Support

The SDK provides async versions of all API methods:

import asyncio
from velo_sdk.api import APIClient

async def main():
    client = APIClient(api_key="your-api-key")
    company = await client.companies.get_company_async("company-id")
    print(company.name)

asyncio.run(main())

Pagination

The SDK handles pagination automatically for list endpoints:

# Iterate through all results (automatically handles pagination)
for company in client.companies.list_companies():
    print(company.name)

Error Handling

The SDK provides clear error messages for API errors:

from velo_sdk.api import APIError

try:
    company = client.companies.get_company("non-existent-id")
except APIError as e:
    print(f"Error: {e.status_code} - {e.message}")
