DEPRECATION

Quite a lot of data is missing from the V1 API.

As of January 2015, no new data will be added to the v1 API, you will have to use the V2 API instead. This is part of an ongoing deprecation of the v1 API.

See This blog post for more information.

Setup

Download this source code into a working directory.
Install the requirements using pip:

$ make install

This will install all the required packages and libraries for using PokeAPI

Set up the local developer environment using the following command:

$ make setup

Run the server using the following command::

$ make serve

Visit localhost:8000 to see the running website!

If you ever need to wipe the database use this command:

$ make wipe_db

V1 Database setup

Start Django shell

$ python manage.py shell --settings=config.local

import build functions

$ from data.v1.build import *

run the functions in order to populate v1 tables

$ build_pokes()
$ build_abilities()
$ build moves()
etc...

V2 Database setup

Start Django shell

$ python manage.py shell --settings=config.local

run the build script with

$ from data.v2.build import build_all
$ build_all()

Each time the build script is run it will iterate over each table in the database, wipe it and rewrite each row using the data found in data/v2/csv. When building against sqlite we've heard it can take a ridiculously long time to finish building out the database. In this case you can set up just the portions of the db that you need.

$ from data.v2.build import *
$ build_languages()
$ build_abilities()
...

Heres a list of the data building functions

build_languages()
build_regions()
build_generations()
build_versions()
build_stats()
build_damage_classes()
build_abilities()
build_characteristics()
build_egg_groups()
build_growth_rates()
build_items()
build_types()
build_contests()
build_moves()
build_berries()
build_natures()
build_genders()
build_experiences()
build_machines()
build_evolutions()
build_pokedexes()
build_locations()
build_pokemons()
build_encounters()
build_pal_parks()
