Python module to interface to https://keepa.com/ to query for Amazon product information and history.
Module is compatible with Python 2 and 3. keepaAPI requires: + numpy + requests
Product history can be plotted from the raw data when matplotlib is installed.
Interfacing with the keepaAPI requires an accesskey and a monthly subscription from https://keepa.com/#!api
Module can be installed from PyPi using pip install keepaAPI
Source code can also be downloaded from this github repository and
installed using python setup.py install
or pip install .
import keepaAPI
accesskey = 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' # enter real access key here
api = keepaAPI.API(accesskey)
# Single ASIN query
products = api.ProductQuery('059035342X') # returns list of product data
# Plot result (requires matplotlib)
keepaAPI.PlotProduct(products[0])
Import interface and establish connection to server
import keepaAPI
accesskey = 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' # enter real access key here
api = keepaAPI.API(accesskey)
Single ASIN query
products = api.ProductQuery('059035342X')
# See help(api.ProductQuery) for available options when querying the API
Multiple ASIN query from List
asins = ['0022841350', '0022841369', '0022841369', '0022841369']
products = api.ProductQuery(asins)
Multiple ASIN query from numpy array
asins = np.asarray(['0022841350', '0022841369', '0022841369', '0022841369'])
products = api.ProductQuery(asins)
Products is a list of product data with one entry per successful result from the keepa server. Each entry is a dictionary containing the same product data available from http://www.amazon.com.
# Available keys
print(products[0].keys())
# Print ASIN and title
print('ASIN is ' + products[0]['asin'])
print('Title is ' + products[0]['title'])
The raw data is contained within each product result. Raw data is stored as a dictonary with each key paired with its associated time history.
# Access new price history and associated time data
newprice = products[0]['data']['MarketplaceNew']
newpricetime = products[0]['data']['MarketplaceNew_time']
# Can be plotted with matplotlib using:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.step(newpricetime, newprice, where='pre')
# Keys can be listed by
print(products[0]['data'].keys())
The product history can also be plotted from the module if matplotlib is installed
