Python library support for reserveohio

[kmulh-1]

I would like to use the python library in my own app to search for sites on reserveohio.com. It looks like only Yellowstone and recreationdotgov are currently supported in the libarary, do you have any plans to add additional providers?

Hey @kmulh-1 - the Python library does support ReserveOhio but the Python API isn't completely documented since camply is first and foremost a CLI.

All Python usage of Camply requires a Search class. See ReserveOhios's Search class here: https://juftin.com/camply/reference/search/search_usedirect/#camply.search.search_usedirect.SearchOhioStateParks

All Search classes can be imported from the camply.search namespace:

from camply.search import SearchOhioStateParks

And see the very basic Python API documentation here: https://juftin.com/camply/python/ - all Search classes share the same fundamental methods.

Every Search class also has its own Provider class as well. The Provider class provides lower level functionality like searching for recreation areas:

https://juftin.com/camply/reference/providers/#camply.providers.OhioStateParks

from camply.providers import OhioStateParks

Here's some more sample Python code:

from __future__ import annotations

from camply.containers import CampgroundFacility, RecreationArea
from camply.providers import OhioStateParks

provider = OhioStateParks()
recreation_areas: list[RecreationArea] = provider.search_for_recreation_areas(
    query="Park"
)
campgrounds: list[CampgroundFacility] = provider.find_campgrounds(
    rec_area_id=[recreation_areas[0].recreation_area_id]
)

I recommend using a modern Python IDE to explore other available methods and params
