Helper module for returning data from the GOV.UK content API.
Take a pandas series as input, which should be a list of urls, without the https://www.gov.uk slug.
Returns a list of dictionaries from the response json.
The module makes use of pandas for a range of functions when dealing with tabular data.
import pandas as pd
from govukurllookup import *
# Import urls from a csv file
urls = pd.read_csv('url_file.csv')
foo = govukurls(urls.url)
# In initialising the object, the list of urls will be deduplicated:
# Number of duplicates removed:
len(foo.urls) - len(foo.dedupurls)
# Run a lookup on the content API
foo.lookup()
# A list of dicts is returned
foo.urldicts
