This project is not associated with the OpenCellID project. This is a utility
package for downloading and parsing the OpenCellID database.
OpenCelliD Project is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike
4.0 International License.
Usage (with API key from Unwired Labs)
--------------------------------------
::
import opencellid
ocid_obj = opencellid.OpenCellIdFeed("/dir/for/feed/file/", "api_key")
# Update OpenCellID feed from web:
ocid_obj.update_feed()
# Print all rows in OpenCellID feed:
for row in ocid_obj:
print row
Usage (no API key, update from Mozilla Location Services)
---------------------------------------------------------
::
import opencellid
ocid_obj = opencellid.OpenCellIdFeed("/dir/for/feed/file/")
# Update OpenCellID feed from web:
ocid_obj.update_feed()
# Print all rows in OpenCellID feed:
for row in ocid_obj:
print row
Error Handling
--------------
The tool will attempt to detect if the download is a gzipped CSV file before
boving the download to replace the original gzipped CSV. If an IOError is
encountered, a meaningful message will be displayed, and the exception will
be re-raised. For example, if you're being rate-limited, you'll see...
::
>>> ocid_obj.update_feed()
Updating OpenCellID feed from Unwired Labs.
Feed did not update... you're being rate-limited!
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>

IOError: Not a gzipped file
And if your API key is not accepted, you'll see...

raise IOError, 'Not a gzipped file'
IOError: Not a gzipped file
When this happens, the original feed is not updated, so you can catch and
re-initialize the ``ocid_obj`` to pull from MLS until you can sort out the
rate limiting or API key issue.
