A Python interface to boardgamegeek.com's API
Project description
Introduction
boardgamegeek is a Python library which makes it easy to access data from BoardGameGeek using their official XML API.
It’s an almost completely rewritten fork of libBGG.
Documentation
Documentation is available at http://boardgamegeek.readthedocs.org/
Usage
Here’s a quick usage example:
>>> from boardgamegeek import BoardGameGeek
>>> bgg = BoardGameGeek()
>>> g = bgg.game("Android: Netrunner")
>>> g.name
'Android: Netrunner'
>>> g.id
124742
>>> for n in g.alternative_names: print n.encode("utf-8")
...

If you want to use the disk cache:
>>> bgg = BoardGameGeek(cache="sqlite:///tmp/cache.db?ttl=3600&fast_save=0")
>>> g = bgg.game("Celtica")
>>> g.id
21293
To Do
Not all the information exposed by the official API is stored into the Python objects. Need to improve this.
