A Python API for NewClimate Institute's ClimatePolicy DataBase (CPDB). You can also view the database via the website at https://climatepolicydatabase.org/.
Installation is simple, via pip.
pip install cpdb-api
If you need to specify a version, please do this (we strongly recommend against this unless you know what you're doing):
pip install cpdb-api==<version e.g. 1.0.5>
from cpdb_api import request
r = request.Request()
# set filters
r.set_country("IND")
r.set_decision_date(2010)
r.set_policy_status("In force")
r.add_sector("Electricity and heat")
r.add_sector("Coal")
r.add_policy_instrument("Energy and other taxes")
r.add_mitigation_area("Renewables")
# Issue the request (this returns a pandas dataframe, if you want to parse it programmatically)
r.issue()
# save the result to CSV file
r.save_csv("filtered_cpdb.csv")
To release to PyPi (pip), do the following:
- Increment the version number in pyproject.toml
