[ckan-discuss] CKAN API examples using Python?

Tue Nov 12 13:57:20 UTC 2013

I'd like to use Python to construct queries and decode responses to
the CKAN API.

Specifically I'd like to conduct a geospatial, temporal and keyword
search of catalog.data.gov, returning only datasets that have specific
format type (e.g. Esri REST, or WMS).

Does anyone have some examples of Python code that help construct
these type of queries and process the responses?

(I know about ckanclient (https://github.com/okfn/ckanclient), but I
couldn't figure out how to use it to do this kind of work.)

Thanks,
Rich
