Project description

apies

Travis Coveralls PyPI - Python Version

apies is a flask blueprint providing an API for accessing and searching an ElasticSearch index created from source datapackages.

endpoints

/get

/search/count

`/search/

download/<doctypes>

Downloads search results in either csv, xls or xlsx format.

Query parameters that can be send:

  • types_formatted: The type of the documents to search
  • search_term: The Elastic search query
  • size: Number of hits to return
  • offset: Whether or not term offsets should be returned
  • filters: What offset to use for the pagination
  • dont_highlight:
  • from_date: If there should be a date range applied to the search, and from what date
  • to_date: If there should be a date range applied to the search, and until what date
  • order:
  • file_format: The format of the file to be returned, either 'csv', 'xls' or 'xlsx'. If not passed the file format will be xlsx
  • file_name: The name of the file to be returned, by default the name will be 'search_results'
  • column_mapping: If the columns should get a different name then in the original data, a column map can be send, for example:
{
  "עיר": "address.city",
  "תקציב": "details.budget"
}

For example, get a csv file with column mapping:

http://localhost:5000/api/download/jobs?q=engineering&size=2&file_format=csv&file_name=my_results&column_mapping={%22mispar%22:%22Job%20ID%22}

Or get an xslx file without column mapping:

http://localhost:5000/api/download/jobs?q=engineering&size=2&file_format=xlsx&file_name=my_results

configuration

Flask configuration for this blueprint:

    from apies import apies_blueprint
    import elasticsearch

    app.register_blueprint(
        apies_blueprint(['path/to/datapackage.json', Package(), ...],
                        elasticsearch.Elasticsearch(...), 
                        {'doc-type-1': 'index-for-doc-type-1', ...}, 
                        'index-for-documents',
                        dont_highlight=['fields', 'not.to', 'highlight'],
                        text_field_rules=lambda schema_field: [], # list of tuples: ('exact'/'inexact'/'natural', <field-name>)
                        multi_match_type='most_fields',
                        multi_match_operator='and'),
        url_prefix='/search/'
    )

local development

You can start a local development server by following these steps:

  1. Install Dependencies:

    a. Install Docker locally

    b. Install Python dependencies:

    $ pip install dataflows dataflows-elasticsearch
    $ pip install -e .
    
  2. Go to the sample/ directory

  3. Start ElasticSearch locally:

    $ ./start_elasticsearch.sh
    

    This script will wait and poll the server until it's up and running. You can test it yourself by running:

    $ curl -s http://localhost:9200
         {
         "name" : "99cd2db44924",
         "cluster_name" : "docker-cluster",
         "cluster_uuid" : "nF9fuwRyRYSzyQrcH9RCnA",
         "version" : {
             "number" : "7.4.2",
             "build_flavor" : "default",
             "build_type" : "docker",
             "build_hash" : "2f90bbf7b93631e52bafb59b3b049cb44ec25e96",
             "build_date" : "2019-10-28T20:40:44.881551Z",
             "build_snapshot" : false,
             "lucene_version" : "8.2.0",
             "minimum_wire_compatibility_version" : "6.8.0",
             "minimum_index_compatibility_version" : "6.0.0-beta1"
         },
         "tagline" : "You Know, for Search"
         }
    
  4. Load data into the database

    $ DATAFLOWS_ELASTICSEARCH=localhost:9200 python load_fixtures.py
    

    You can test that data was loaded:

    $ curl -s http://localhost:9200/jobs-job/_count?pretty
     {
         "count" : 1757,
         "_shards" : {
             "total" : 1,
             "successful" : 1,
             "skipped" : 0,
             "failed" : 0
         }
     }
    
  5. Start the sample server

    $ python server.py 
     * Serving Flask app "server" (lazy loading)
     * Environment: production
     WARNING: Do not use the development server in a production environment.
     Use a production WSGI server instead.
     * Debug mode: off
     * Running on http://127.0.0.1:5000/ (Press CTRL+C to quit)
    
  6. Now you can hit the server's endpoints, for example:

         $ curl -s 'localhost:5000/api/search/jobs?q=engineering&size=2' | jq
         127.0.0.1 - - [26/Jun/2019 10:45:31] "GET /api/search/jobs?q=engineering&size=2 HTTP/1.1" 200 -
         {
             "search_counts": {
                 "_current": {
                 "total_overall": 617
                 }
             },
             "search_results": [
                 {
                 "score": 18.812,
                 "source": {
                     "# Of Positions": "5",
                     "Additional Information": "TO BE APPOINTED TO ANY CIVIL <em>ENGINEERING</em> POSITION IN BRIDGES, CANDIDATES MUST POSSESS ONE YEAR OF CIVIL <em>ENGINEERING</em> EXPERIENCE IN BRIDGE DESIGN, BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION, BRIDGE MAINTENANCE OR BRIDGE INSPECTION.",
                     "Agency": "DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION",
                     "Business Title": "Civil Engineer 2",
                     "Civil Service Title": "CIVIL ENGINEER",
                     "Division/Work Unit": "<em>Engineering</em> Review & Support",
             ...
         }
