# AMS-SDK
![Python Version](https://img.shields.io/badge/Python-3.7%2B-blue)
[![License](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-yellow)](LICENSE)

`ams-sdk` is a wrapper around `ams-api` and handles the authentification and query process in just a few steps.



Please refer to [AMS API documentation](https://github.com/alternative-macro-signals/api-docs)
 for a detailed description of the API endpoints, including parameters specification.

---

## Features ✨

- **Easy Queries**: Query from all AMS API endpoints in two lines of Python code


- **Authentication**: SDK takes care of the full authentication process, with just your API key required (given by AMS)

---

## Installation 🛠️

From PyPI (recommended):

```shell
pip install ams-sdk
```

Alternatively, directly from repo:

```shell
pip install git+https://github.com/alternative-macro-signals/ams-sdk.git
```

---

## Requirements 📋


The following dependencies are necessary to use this SDK:

- `Python 3.7` or higher (likely to work with 3+ but not tested)
- `requests>=2.0.0` (installed automatically if needed)

---

## Usage 📖


### Initialization
First, initialize the `AMSClient` with the service URL and API key provided by AMS.
```python
from ams_sdk.client import AMSClient
```
```python
client = AMSClient(service_url=SERVICE_URL, api_key=API_KEY)
```

### Authentication

Call the `authenticate()` method to fetch the bearer token required for further requests:

```python
client.authenticate()
```

### Querying Endpoints

Use the `query_endpoint` method to query specific AMS API endpoints:

```python
result = client.query_endpoint("/nbstat", params={
 "location": "Japan",
 "txt": "rice",
 "start": "2021-01-01"
})
print(result)
```

```python
result = client.query_endpoint("/nipi", params={
 "location": "Euro area",
 "sector": "Food",
})
print(result)
```




### Output

Transform the `/nbstat` or  `/nipi` output in a Pandas dataframe:

```python
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame(result.get('content'))
df['date'] = pd.to_datetime(df['date'])
df = df.set_index('date')
df.sort_index(inplace=True)
```

In order to get 7-day and 30-day rolling balances from `/nbstat` (similar to the NewsBot app):
```python
df7 = df.rolling(7).mean()
df30 = df.rolling(30).mean()
```

Note: NIPI is already a 30-day rolling diffusion index.
