You can also use Git to clone the repository from GitHub to install the latest development version:

$ git clone https://github.com/wikirate/wikirate4py.git
$ cd wikirate4py
$ pip install .

Alternatively, install directly from the GitHub repository:

$ pip install git+https://github.com/wikirate/wikirate4py.git

Python 3.6 - 3.9 are supported.

Usage

wikirate4py makes it easy to interact with Wikirate's API:

from wikirate4py import API
api = API('your_api_token')
company = api.get_company(7217) # returns company given company's numeric identifier
print(company.name)  # 'Adidas AG'
print(company.headquarters)  # 'Germany'

DataFrames

From version 1.2.0, the wikirate4py library allows users to transform WikirateEntity objects to DataFrames. Here is a usage example:

from wikirate4py import API
from wikirate4py.utils import to_dataframe

api = API('your_api_token')
cursor = wikirate4py.Cursor(api.get_answers,
                            metric_name="Revenue EUR",
                            metric_designer="Clean Clothes Campaign",
                            year=2020)
answers = []
while cursor.has_next():
    answers += cursor.next()

print(to_dataframe(answers).to_string())

Company Identifiers

From version 1.2.8, the wikirate4py library allows users to search companies by identifier. For example, if you know their Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) or one of their ISINs, you can search using the companies endpoint as shown below:

from wikirate4py import API
api = API('your_api_token')
companies = api.get_companies(company_identifier=["213800EJP14A79ZG1X44", "VGG1890L1076"]) # get companies that match any of the two given company identifiers
print(companies)

Example output:

[
    {
        "australian_business_number": null,
        "headquarters": "United Kingdom",
        "id": 9269,
        "isin": ["GB0031274896"],
        "lei": "213800EJP14A79ZG1X44",
        "name": "Marks and Spencer Group plc",
        "open_corporates": "00214436",
        "os_id": null,
        "sec_cik": null,
        "uk_company_number": null
    },
    {
        "australian_business_number": null,
        "headquarters": "United Kingdom",
        "id": 3152073,
        "isin": ["VGG1890L1076"],
        "lei": "549300LPG8W0H1OX3A26",
        "name": "Capri Holdings Ltd (formerly Michael Kors)",
        "open_corporates": "11308598",
        "os_id": null,
        "sec_cik": "1530721",
        "uk_company_number": null
    }
]
