== Yelp API == I also want to walk through an example of a package that comes from an API that is both (a) authenticated and (b) that requires interacting through Python module * Finding new Python modules * Installing new Python modules with <code>%run pip install <PACKAGE></code> The Yelp API is ''authenticated''. Authentication can come in one of several forms including: * keys that are embedded into your normal parameters (like <code>{'api-key' : 'SOMETHING'}</code>) * OAUTH authentication, bearer tokens, and so on... Yelp is the latter kind. As it typically any API that lets you post and/or interact in ways that are non-passive. That means you need to sign up for an API key. To do so at Yelp (and many other places) requires: * creating a App ("''wait... I'm creating an app?!''") * My app: https://www.yelp.com/developers/v3/manage_app Some things to keep in mind include: * Keeping your API keys outside of your notebook: ** in a JSON file in your directory! ** e.g., in a separate python module Now lets end by walking through two examples: * [https://github.com/kayleachampion/spr23_CDSW/blob/main/curriculum/week6/yelp_business_search-direct.ipynb Yelp example notebook #1] (direct nonmodule version) * [https://github.com/kayleachampion/spr23_CDSW/blob/main/curriculum/week6/yelp_business_search-module.ipynb Yelp example notebook #2] (versions using the yelpapi module)
