`python-re3data` is a Python library that simplifies interacting with the [re3data](https://www.re3data.org) (Registry
of Research Data Repositories) [REST API](https://www.re3data.org/api/doc), allowing you to easily retrieve and process
metadata about research data repositories in a convenient and Pythonic way.
```pycon
>>> import re3data
>>> response = re3data.repositories.list()
>>> response
[RepositorySummary(id='r3d100010468', doi='https://doi.org/10.17616/R3QP53', name='Zenodo', link=Link(href='https://www.re3data.org/api/beta/repository/r3d100010468', rel='self'))]
... (remaining repositories truncated)
```
```pycon
>>> response = re3data.repositories.get("r3d100010468")
>>> response
Repository(re3data_org_identifier='r3d100010468', repository_name=RepositoryName(value='Zenodo', language=<Languages.ENG: 'eng'>), additional_name=[], repository_url='https://zenodo.org/', repository_identifier=['FAIRsharing_doi:10.25504/FAIRsharing.wy4egf', 'RRID:SCR_004129', 'RRID:nlx_158614'])
... (remaining fields truncated)
```
## Features
- Pythonic API interactions: Interact with the re3data API in a Pythonic way, without having to worry about low-level
HTTP requests or XML parsing.
- Repository metadata retrieval: Easily fetch and process metadata about research data repositories using
`re3data.repositories.list()`.
- Repository details retrieval: Get detailed information about a specific repository using
`re3data.repositories.get(repository_id)`.
- XML response parsers: API XML responses are parsed into Python dataclasses, providing convenient access to the
elements of the [re3data.org Schema 2.2 XML Schema](https://www.re3data.org/schema/2-2). This makes it easy to work
with the rich metadata provided by the API.
- Flexible response options: The response type can be switched between:
- dataclass (default): Returns a Python dataclass object, allowing convenient access to the element of the re3data
schema
- response: Returns a Python object representing the API response
- original XML (str): Returns the raw XML response from the API
- JSON (str): Returns a JSON representation of the API response
- dictionary: Returns a dictionary representation of the API response
- csv (str): Returns a CSV representation of the API response
- dataframe: Returns a pandas.DataFrame representation of the API response
## Requirements
[Python](https://www.python.org/downloads/) >= 3.10
`python-re3data` is built with:
- **HTTP Requests**: [httpx](https://github.com/encode/httpx), a modern and efficient HTTP client library, handles all
API interactions.
- **XML Parsing**: [xsdata](https://github.com/tefra/xsdata), a powerful tool for generating Python dataclasses from XML
schemas, simplifies processing of API responses.
- **Optional CLI**: [typer](https://github.com/tiangolo/typer), a popular library for building command-line interfaces,
powers the user-friendly interface.
- **Optional DataFrame/CSV**: [pandas](https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas), a powerful and flexible data analysis
library, enables generation of DataFrames and CSV files from parsed XML responses.
## Installation
You can install `python-re3data` via pip from [PyPI][pypi-url]:
```console
python -m pip install python-re3data
```
or pull the Docker image from [GHCR](https://github.com/afuetterer/python-re3data/pkgs/container/python-re3data):
```console
docker pull ghcr.io/afuetterer/python-re3data:latest
```
For a more detailed guide, see [Installation](https://afuetterer.github.io/python-re3data/latest/install/).
## Documentation
