JarCastingALTADATA Java Client
ALTADATA is a Curated Data Marketplace. This Java package provides convenient access to the ALTADATA API from applications written in the Java language. With this Java package, developers can build applications around the ALTADATA API without having to deal with accessing and managing requests and responses.
Installing with Maven
To include altadata-java in your Maven application, add a dependency on its artifacts to your project's pom.xml file. For example,
<dependency>
<groupId>io.altadata</groupId>
<artifactId>altadata-java</artifactId>
<version>0.1.1</version>
</dependency>
Quickstart
Obtain an API key in your dashboard and initialize the client:
import io.altadata.AltaData;
AltaData client = new AltaData("YOUR_API_KEY");
Retrieving Data
You can get the entire data with the code below.
ArrayList<JSONObject> data = client.get_data("PRODUCT_CODE").load();
Retrieving Subscription Info
You can get your subscription info with the code below.
ArrayList<JSONObject> subscription_info = client.list_subscription();
Retrieving Data Header Info
You can get your data header with the code below.
Set<String> header_info = client.get_header("PRODUCT_CODE");
Retrieving Data with Conditions
You can get data with using various conditions.
The columns you can apply these filter operations to are limited to the filtered columns.
You can find the filtered columns in the data section of the data product page.
equal condition
String product_code = "co_10_jhucs_03";
ArrayList<JSONObject> data = client.get_data(product_code)
.equal("province_state", "Alabama")
.load();
not equal condition
String product_code = "co_10_jhucs_03";
ArrayList<JSONObject> data = client.get_data(product_code)
.not_equal("province_state", "Montana")
.load();
in condition
String product_code = "co_10_jhucs_03";
ArrayList<JSONObject> data = client.get_data(product_code)
.condition_in("province_state", new String[]{"Montana", "Utah"})
.load();
condition_value parameter of condition_in method must be Array
not in condition
String product_code = "co_10_jhucs_03";
ArrayList<JSONObject> data = client.get_data(product_code)
.condition_not_in("province_state", new String[]{"Montana", "Utah", "Alabama"})
.load();
condition_value parameter of condition_not_in method must be Array
sort operation
String product_code = "co_10_jhucs_03";
String order_method = "desc";
ArrayList<JSONObject> data = client.get_data(product_code)
.sort("reported_date", order_method)
.load();
Default value of order_method parameter is 'asc' and order_method parameter must be "asc" or "desc"
select specific columns
String product_code = "co_10_jhucs_03";
String[]selected_column = {"reported_date", "province_state", "mortality_rate"};
ArrayList<JSONObject> data = client.get_data(product_code)
.select(selected_column)
.load();
selected_column parameter of select method must be Array
get the specified amount of data
String product_code = "co_10_jhucs_03";
int data_limit = 20;
ArrayList<JSONObject> data = client.get_data(product_code, data_limit).load();
Retrieving Data with Multiple Conditions
You can use multiple condition at same time.
String product_code = "co_10_jhucs_03";
int data_limit = 100;
String order_method = "desc";
String[] selected_column = {"reported_date", "province_state", "mortality_rate"};
ArrayList<JSONObject> data = client.get_data(product_code, data_limit)
.condition_in("province_state", new String[]{"Montana", "Utah"})
.sort("mortality_rate", order_method)
.select(selected_column)
.load();
