Description : Client for Socrata Open Data API
This library provides an interface to the Socrata Open Data API, enabling
interaction with open datasets available on Socrata-powered data portals. It
allows for retrieving data, updating or deleting dataset rows, downloading
attachments, managing metadata, controlling dataset permissions, and
publishing datasets. Functions include querying datasets with support for
filtering, sorting, and pagination, as well as writing new records or
replacing data in bulk.
.
Reading and writing operations are supported for both table-based and file-
based datasets, and attachments can be managed or downloaded as needed. The
library communicates over HTTP(S) with remote Socrata endpoints, and supports
authenticated access for operations that require additional permissions.
Socrata's API is commonly used by governments, cities, and public
organizations to publish open data such as public safety records,
transportation schedules, environmental data, Wi-Fi access points, and more.
This library is a dependancy of pygeoapi, an OGC API server for geospatial
data provision.
I plan to maintain this package as part of the Python team.
