Photon Python client
Project description
🗺 Light Photon client written in Python
Install
pip install pyphoton
Usage
Python Photon client allows you to make queries to Photon easily.
from pyphoton import Photon
client = Photon()
location = client.query('berlin', limit=1)
print (location.city)
print (location.latitude)
print (location.longitude)
Photon object accepts two parameters:
host: the url where Photon instance is running (default https://photon.komoot.de)
language: the preferred language (default is en)
You can pass to the query method the following parameters along the query string:
limit: limit number of results
language: force language in the query
latitude and longitude: use them to search with priority to a geo position
location_bias_scale: use to search with location bias
Location object (or objects if you don’t set limit=1) is generated from the json returned and contains all the information you need: name, state, street, city, osm attributes, extent_from.latitude, extent_from.longitude, extent_to.latitude, extent_to.longitude …
If there’s an with your query, a PhotonException will be raised
from pyphoton import Photon
from pyphoton.errors import PhotonException
client = Photon()
try:
location = client.query('', limit=1)
except PhotonException as ex:
print (ex)
