python-yelp-v2

A Python wrapper for the Yelp API v2. The structure for this was inspired by the python-twitter library, and some internal methods are reused.

Installation

From pypi

pip install python-yelp-v2

Usage

You must have yelp oauth credentials: http://www.yelp.com/developers/getting_started

import yelp

yelp_api = yelp.Api(consumer_key=MY_CONSUMER_KEY,
                    consumer_secret=MY_CONSUMER_SECRET,
                    access_token_key=MY_ACCESS_TOKEN,
                    access_token_secret=MY_ACCESS_SECRET)

Searching

search_results = yelp_api.Search(term="my search term", location="my location") # location and search term are required
for business in search_results.businesses:
    print business.name

See the exact attributes available on the search result set

Getting business info

business = yelp_api.GetBusiness('post-no-bills-brooklyn')

The business class lists all of the attributes that are available for each business the API returns.
