In this examples we'll be using requests as a HTTP client library, it is a powerful and simple library for making requests with python.
First of all, import the requests library
import 'requests'
- You can use this to find out what kind of data is already available to you. But you can then insert your own data if you want.
requests.get('http://143.107.45.126:30134/catalog/capabilities')
RESPONSE:
{
"capabilities": [
{
"id": 1,
"name": "bus_monitoring",
"function": 0,
"description": "Provides data related to a bus, such as its current location"
},
{
"id": 5,
"name": "temperature",
"function": 0,
"description": "temperature of a given region, in fahrenheit"
},
{
"id": 6,
"name": "wind_speed",
"function": 0,
"description": "wind speed of a given region, in mph"
},
{
"id": 7,
"name": "humidity",
"function": 0,
"description": "humidity of a given region, in percentage"
},
{
"id": 8,
"name": "pressure",
"function": 0,
"description": "pressure of a given region, in pol"
}
}
uuid = '2fb06b91-9e2a-4a65-9689-dee9c4f326db'
requests.post('http://143.107.45.126:30134/collector/resources/' + uuid + '/data, json={limit: 2})
There are some filters that can be applied and combined to your requests. You just need to add them to the request url.
- capabilities: Only fetches data related to a given capabilities
- start_date: Only fetches data collected after the start_date
- end_date: Only fetches data collected before the end_date
- limit: Limit the amount of registers in the response
- start: Used for pagination purpouses
- You may need to filter the collected measures by the capability of interest, for example, weather.
requests.post('http://143.107.45.126:30134/collector/resources/data', json={"capabilities": ["weather"]} )
- You can filter by start_date, end_date
requests.post('http://143.107.45.126:30134/collector/resources/data', json={'capabilities': ['weather'], 'start_date': '2017-11-09T23:46:29.000Z'})
requests.post('http://143.107.45.126:30134/collector/resources/data', json={'capabilities': ['weather'], 'start_date': '2017-11-09T23:46:29.000Z'. 'limit': 100, 'start': 3})
In this directory you can find an example of a get and post fuctions implementations to facilitate your interaction with the InterSCity platform. Enjoy it!
