Asynchronous Python client for the urban datasets of Hamburg (Germany).

About

A python package with which you can retrieve data from the Urban Data Platform of Hamburg via their API. This package was initially created to only retrieve parking data from the API, but the code base is made in such a way that it is easy to extend for other datasets from the same platform.

Installation

pip install hamburg

Datasets

You can read the following datasets with this package:

• Disabled parking spaces / Behindertenstellplätze (901)
• Park and rides occupancy / Park + Ride Anlagen (33)
• Garages occupancy / Parkhäuser (45 live data / 124 total)

There are a number of parameters you can set to retrieve the data:

• limit (default: 10) - How many results you want to retrieve.

Use cases

NIPKaart.nl

A website that provides insight into where disabled parking spaces are, based on data from users and municipalities. Operates mainly in the Netherlands, but also has plans to process data from abroad.

Contributing

This is an active open-source project. We are always open to people who want to use the code or contribute to it.

We've set up a separate document for our contribution guidelines.

Setting up development environment

The simplest way to begin is by utilizing the Dev Container feature of Visual Studio Code or by opening a CodeSpace directly on GitHub. By clicking the button below you immediately start a Dev Container in Visual Studio Code.

This Python project relies on Poetry as its dependency manager, providing comprehensive management and control over project dependencies.

You need at least:

• Python 3.11+
• Poetry

Install all packages, including all development requirements:

poetry install

Poetry creates by default an virtual environment where it installs all necessary pip packages, to enter or exit the venv run the following commands:

poetry shell
exit

Setup the pre-commit check, you must run this inside the virtual environment:

pre-commit install

Now you're all set to get started!

As this repository uses the pre-commit framework, all changes are linted and tested with each commit. You can run all checks and tests manually, using the following command:

poetry run pre-commit run --all-files

To run just the Python tests:

poetry run pytest

To update the syrupy snapshot tests:

poetry run pytest --snapshot-update
