Open Budget Data Api

This is the API for the Open Budget data. You can perform Database Queries and download data

Getting started

Create a virtual environment (if necessary) and install the requirements

pyvenv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

export PYTHONPATH=.:$PYTHONPATH

Instead of setting up the database locally, you can use a different database host

export DATABASE_URL=<db_url>

Check the current hosted database url At the time of writing it was postgresql://readonly:readonly@data-next.obudget.org:5432/budgetkey

Start app through ./start_server.sh

./start_server.sh

Now you can browse to the app, for example:

http://localhost:8000/api/query?query=select * from raw_budget

python setup.py build

docker build .
