Zomato-API

For getting restaurants data from Zomato's API.

To query the API, you'll need these four:

• city name
• state (2-letter)
• latitude
• longitude

Query a long list of locations

To query the API for many locations, store them in a .csv file. Make sure your file has the following columns (keep the names the same): city, state, latitude, longitude.

Once, you have the input file, run the run.py in the command line. You need pass in the following arguments:

• --key: your Zomato API key
• --input: path to your .csv input file
• --output: path where to store the results
• --states (optional): in case you want to query for only a list of selected states

Your command should look like this:

python run.py --key <API_KEY> --input <INPUT_FILE_PATH> --output <OUTPUT_FOLDER_PATH> --states TX CA FL

Single query

In case, you only want to query once, you can use the zomatoapi.py module itself. Just read the module in your code, and give it the city, latitude, and longitude. Check out the pseudo code below:

from zomatoapi import Zomato

apikey = "YOUR API KEY"

z = Zomato(apikey)

city = 'Dallas`
lat = 32.76793
lon = -96.83631

response = z.search(city, lat, lon)
