Base Methods

The base methods could be used compounded with with query, filter, sort, order and facet methods.

Version

This method returns the Crossref API version.

In [1]: from crossref.restful import Journals

In [2]: journals = Journals()

In [3]: journals.version
Out[3]: '1.0.0'

Count

This method returns the total of itens a query result should retrive. This method will not iterate and retrieve through the API documents. This method will fetch 0 documents and retrieve the value of total-result attribute.

In [1]: from crossref.restful import Works

In [2]: works = Works()

In [3]: works.query('zika').count()
Out[3]: 3597

In [4]: works.query('zika').filter(from_online_pub_date='2017').count()
Out[4]: 444

Url

This method returns the url that will be used to query the Crossref API.

In [1]: from crossref.restful import Works

In [2]: works = Works()

In [3]: works.query('zika').url
Out[3]: 'https://api.crossref.org/works?query=zika'

In [4]: works.query('zika').filter(from_online_pub_date='2017').url
Out[4]: 'https://api.crossref.org/works?query=zika&filter=from-online-pub-date%3A2017'

In [5]: works.query('zika').filter(from_online_pub_date='2017').query(author='Mari').url
Out[5]: 'https://api.crossref.org/works?query.author=Mari&filter=from-online-pub-date%3A2017&query=zika'

In [6]: works.query('zika').filter(from_online_pub_date='2017').query(author='Mari').sort('published').url
Out[6]: 'https://api.crossref.org/works?query.author=Mari&query=zika&filter=from-online-pub-date%3A2017&sort=published'

In [7]: works.query('zika').filter(from_online_pub_date='2017').query(author='Mari').sort('published').order('asc').url
Out[7]: 'https://api.crossref.org/works?filter=from-online-pub-date%3A2017&query.author=Mari&order=asc&query=zika&sort=published'

In [8]: from crossref.restful import Prefixes

In [9]: prefixes = Prefixes()

In [10]: prefixes.works('10.1590').query('zike').url
Out[10]: 'https://api.crossref.org/prefixes/10.1590/works?query=zike'

In [16]: journals.works('0102-311X').query('zika').count()
Out[16]: 12

All

This method returns all items of an endpoint. It will use the limit offset parameters to iterate through the endpoints Journals, Types, Members and Prefixes.

For the works endpoint, the library will make use of the cursor to paginate through API until it is totally consumed.

In [1]: from crossref.restful import Journals

In [2]: journals = Journals()

In [3]: for item in journals.all():
   ...:     print(item['title'])
   ...:
JNSM
New Comprehensive Biochemistry
New Frontiers in Ophthalmology
Oral Health Case Reports
Orbit A Journal of American Literature
ORDO
