tsgettoolbox - Quick Guide

The ‘tsgettoolbox’ is a Python script and library to get time-series data from different web services. The tsgettoolbox will work with Python 2.6+ and 3.0+.

Documentation

Reference documentation is at tsgettoolbox_documentation.

Installation

At the command line:

$ pip install tsgettoolbox
# OR
$ easy_install tsgettoolbox

Or, if you have virtualenvwrapper installed:

$ mkvirtualenv tsgettoolbox
$ pip install tsgettoolbox

Usage Summary - Command Line

Just run ‘tsgettoolbox –help’ to get a list of subcommands. To get detailed help for a particular sub-command, for instance ‘coops’, type ‘tsgettoolbox coops –help’.
