This is a Python package to help plan dates and outings by providing information about art-based events and restaurants within the NYC Metro area based on an initial meeting point. This package serves as a wrapper for the NYC ArtBeats API and leverages various functionalities from the Google Maps API (as accessed through googlemaps package as well as gmaps package) to make planning artsy dates and gatherings simple and fun.
The functions within return data tables and maps as needed based on a specified search radius of a starting address. There is also a function (for those who like spontanaeity) to choose_my_art_date
, which selects one art-based event and one restaurant nearby based on a starting point. Users can further adjust for a variety of needs, such as search radius from starting point, whether the event is free, and minimum Google Places Rating (for the restaurant).
Note: this package is dependent on the googlemaps
and gmaps
packages, which acces the Google Maps API. Users should obtain a Google Maps API key to use this package to its full capacity.
