Introduction to petpy

The following post introduces the petpy package and its methods for interacting with the Petfinder API. The goal of the petpy library is to enable other users to interact with the rich data available in the Petfinder database with an easy-to-use and straightforward Python interface. Methods for coercing the often messy JSON and XML API outputs into pandas DataFrame are also available to help facilitate users who are more interested in using the API for data analysis. More information on the Petfinder API itself can be found on the API documentation page.

Installation

If not already installed, install petpy using pip:

pip install petpy

Then, import the package.

In [2]:
import petpy

The Petfinder API requires an API key to authenticate access. To receive an API key, register with Petfinder on their developer page: https://www.petfinder.com/developers/api-key

The API key received from Petfinder is then used to authenticate the Petfinder class in petpy.

The API key is first stored as an environment variable and then loaded using the os library. Storing your keys received from APIs and other sensitive information in a secure file or as an environment variable is considered best practice to avoid any potential malicious activity.

In [3]:
import os

key = os.getenv('PETFINDER_KEY')
In [4]:
pf = petpy.Petfinder(key)

The pf variable is the initialized Petfinder class with our given API key. We can now use this instance to interact with and extract data from the Petfinder API.

Examples using the petpy package

Pet Methods

The following examples demonstrate some simple usage of using petpy to interact with and pull data from the Petfinder database. petpy contains methods for coercing the returned API results into a pandas DataFrame for easier data analysis and exporting the results into more common formats such as .csv or Excel. More examples of how to use petpy in conjunction with the Python scientific computing stack (Scipy, Numpy, pandas, scikit-learn, etc.) to analyze the results can be found in the later chapters of this introduction.

Getting Animal Breeds

Pulling the list of animal breeds from the Petfinder database is straightforward with petpy. Let's say we are interested in finding the available breeds of cats:

In [19]:
cats = pf.breed_list('cat')

The default return format is JSON, but can be changed to XML by setting the default parameter outputformat to 'xml'.

In [20]:

The return_df parameter can also be set to True to coerce the results into a pandas DataFrame.

In [21]:
cats_df = pf.breed_list('cat', return_df=True)
cats_df.head()
Out[21]:
cat breeds
0 Abyssinian
1 American Curl
2 American Shorthair
3 American Wirehair
4 Applehead Siamese

Please note the coercion to a pandas DataFrame removes the metadata returned in the JSON format to make the conversion process more efficient and straightforward.

According to Petfinder's API documentation, the available animals to search are ['barnyard', 'bird', 'cat', 'dog', 'horse', 'reptile', 'smallfurry']. Searching for an animal not available in the Petfinder database will return a JSON object with a message stating 'invalid arguments'.

Returning random Petfinder pet records

The petpy method pet_getRandom() provides a wrapper for the Petfinder pet.getRandom method. The potential results can be filtered to a subset by the method parameters, otherwise the method can be called simply as:

In [17]:
pf.pet_getRandom()
Out[17]:
{'@encoding': 'iso-8859-1',
 '@version': '1.0',
 'petfinder': {'@xmlns:xsi': 'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance',
  '@xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation': 'http://api.petfinder.com/schemas/0.9/petfinder.xsd',
  'header': {'status': {'code': {'$t': '100'}, 'message': {}},
   'timestamp': {'$t': '2017-11-21T19:06:54Z'},
   'version': {'$t': '0.1'}},
  'petIds': {'id': {'$t': '39801731'}}}}

The default record output contains only the pet record's ID and the call's JSON metadata. If we wish to return a more complete random pet record, we can set the parameter output to basic (name, age, animal, breed, shelterID) or full (complete record with description).

Finding pet records matching particular search criteria

The pet.find() method returns a collection of pet records that match the input search criteria. The available search criteria are listed in the petpy API documentation.

For example, let's say we are interested in finding female cats in Washington state and we want the results returned in a tidy pandas DataFrame.

In [7]:
cats = pf.pet_find(location='WA', animal='cat', sex='F', return_df=True)

5 rows × 55 columns

The default amount of records returned is 25, which can be changed by setting the count parameter. For large queries, it is recommended to set the pages parameter with a smaller count value. For example, if we wanted to return 1000 results, we could set the pages parameter to 10 and the count parameter to 100. Please note the Petfinder API places a hard cap of 2,000 results returned per query.

Shelter Methods

Shelter methods are quite similar to the pet methods explored previously but return information on the animal welfare organizations available in Petfinder's database.

Finding animal welfare organizations in a certain area

The shelter_find() method can be used to return shelter records matching the input search criteria. Let's say we want to find 10 shelters listed in the Petfinder database located in Washington State as a pandas DataFrame.

wa_shelters = pf.shelter_find(location='WA', count=10, return_df=True)

Returning specific shelter information

The shelter_get() method returns the available information in the Petfinder database matching the given shelter ID. Shelter IDs can be found using the shelter_find() method used earlier. For example, let's use the method to return the record matching the first shelter ID in the result set obtained in the previous example.

In [13]:
shelter_list = wa_shelters['id'].tolist()
In [14]:
pf.shelter_get(shelter_list[0])

The shelter_get() method can also accept a list or tuple of shelter IDs. Internally, this calls a convenience wrapper method shelters_get().

The result obtained would be the same if one were to use the shelter_get() method and passed the same variable.

Extracting pet records from a particular shelter

The shelter.getPets() method returns the pet records that belong to a particular shelter ID. For example, let's say we want to return the pet records from the first shelter in our list as a DataFrame.

Finding shelters that have records matching a particular animal breed

The shelter_listByBreeds() method allows the user to find shelters that match pet records of the input animal breed. This method is best used in conjunction with the breed_list() method to find the available animal breeds in the Petfinder database.

We already extracted the available cat breeds earlier in the introduction, which we can use to select a cat breed listed in the Petfinder database.

In [23]:
cats_df.head()
Out[23]:

0 Abyssinian
1 American Curl
2 American Shorthair
3 American Wirehair
4 Applehead Siamese

The Abyssinian is a beautiful breed of cat, let's find some shelters that have pet records matching an Abyssinian breed and return it as a DataFrame.
