        The `HouseCanary <http://www.housecanary.com>`_ API Python Client provides an easy interface to call the HouseCanary API.
        
        
        API documentation
        -----------------
        
        Full documentation is available at https://api-docs.housecanary.com
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        To install:
        
        ::
        
            pip install housecanary
        
        Basic Usage
        -----------
        
        .. code:: python
        
            import housecanary
            client = housecanary.ApiClient("my_api_key", "my_api_secret")
            result = client.property.value(("10216 N Willow Ave", "64157"))
        
            # result is an instance of housecanary.response.Response
            print result.json()
        
        Authentication
        --------------
        
        When you create an instance of an ApiClient, you need to give it your
        API key and secret. You can manage these in your settings page at
        https://valuereport.housecanary.com/#/settings/api-settings.
        
        You can pass these values to the ApiClient constructor:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            client = housecanary.ApiClient("my_api_key", "my_api_secret")
        
        Alternatively, instead of passing in your key and secret to the
        constructor, you can store them in the following environment variables:
        
        -  HC\_API\_KEY
        -  HC\_API\_SECRET
        
        Creating an instance of ApiClient with no arguments will read your key
        and secret from those environment variables:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            client = housecanary.ApiClient()
        
        Usage Details
        -------------
        
        Endpoint methods
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        The ApiClient class provides a few wrappers which contain
        various methods for calling the different API endpoints.
        
        The property wrapper is used for calling the Analytics API Property endpoints as well
        as the Value Report and Rental Report endpoints.
        
        The block wrapper is used for calling the Analytics API Block endpoints.
        
        The zip wrapper is used for calling the Analytics API Zip endpoints.
        
        The msa wrapper is used for calling the Analytics API MSA endpoints.

        Value Report API Endpoint:
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        
        - **value_report**
        
        Rental Report API Endpoint:
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        
        - **rental_report**
        
        
        Args:
        ^^^^^     
        
        All of the Analytics API property endpoint methods take an
        ``data`` argument. ``data`` can be in the following forms:
        
        A dict like:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            {"address": "82 County Line Rd", "zipcode": "72173", "meta": "someID"}
        
        Or
        
        .. code:: python
        
            {"address": "82 County Line Rd", "city": "San Francisco", "state": "CA", "meta": "someID"}
        
        Or
        
        .. code:: python
        
            {"slug": "123-Example-St-San-Francisco-CA-94105"}
        
        A list of dicts as specified above:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            [{"address": "82 County Line Rd", "zipcode": "72173", "meta": "someID"},
             {"address": "43 Valmonte Plaza", "zipcode": "90274", "meta": "someID2"}]
        
        A single string representing a slug:
        
        .. code:: python
            
            "123-Example-St-San-Francisco-CA-94105"
        
        A tuple in the form of (address, zipcode, meta) like:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            ("82 County Line Rd", "72173", "someID")
        
        A list of (address, zipcode, meta) tuples like:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            [("82 County Line Rd", "72173", "someID"),
             ("43 Valmonte Plaza", "90274", "someID2")]
        
        Using a tuple only supports address, zipcode and meta. To specify city, state, unit or slug,
        please use a dict.
        
        The "meta" field is always optional.
        
        The available keys in the dict are:
            - address (required if no slug)
            - slug (required if no address)
            - zipcode (optional)
            - unit (optional)
            - city (optional)
            - state (optional)
            - meta (optional)
            - client_value (optional, for ``value_within_block`` and ``rental_value_within_block``)
            - client_value_sqft (optional, for ``value_within_block`` and ``rental_value_within_block``)
        
        All of the property endpoint methods return a PropertyResponse object
        (or ValueReportResponse or RentalReportResponse) or
        the output of a custom OutputGenerator if one was specified in the constructor.
        
        **Examples:**
                
        
        .. code:: python
        
            client = housecanary.ApiClient()
            result = client.property.value([("10216 N Willow Ave", "64157"), ("82 County Line Rd", "72173")])
        
            result = client.property.value({"address": "10216 N Willow Ave", "city": "San Francisco", "state": "CA"})
        
            result = client.property.value("123-Example-St-San-Francisco-CA-94105")
        
        
        Component_mget endpoint
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        
        You may want to retrieve data from multiple Analytics API endpoints in one request.
        In this case, you can use the ``component_mget`` method.
        The ``component_mget`` method takes an ``address_data`` argument just like the other endpoint methods.
        Pass in a list of Analytics API property endpoint names as the second argument.
        Note that ``value_report`` and ``rental_report`` cannot be included.
        
        **Example:**
                
        
        .. code:: python
        
            client = housecanary.ApiClient()
            result = client.property.component_mget(("10216 N Willow Ave", "64157"), ["property/school", "property/census", "property/details"])
        
        
        Value Report:
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        
        The ``value_report`` method behaves differently than the other endpoint
        methods. It only supports one address at a time, and it takes some
        extra, optional parameters:
        
        Args: 
            - *address* (str) 
            - *zipcode* (str)
        
        Kwargs: 
            - *report\_type* - "full" or "summary". Optional. Default is "full"
            - *format\_type* - "json", "pdf", "xlsx" or "all". Optional. Default is "json"
        
        **Example:**
                
        
        .. code:: python
        
            client = housecanary.ApiClient()
            # get Value Report in JSON format with "summary" report_type.
            result = client.property.value_report("10216 N Willow Ave", "64157", "summary", "json")
            # print the JSON output
            print result.json()
        
            # get Value Report in PDF format with "full" report_type.
            result = client.property.value_report("10216 N Willow Ave", "64157", format_type="pdf")
            # result is binary data of the PDF.
        
        Rental Report:
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        
        The ``rental_report`` method is for calling the Rental Report API. It only supports one address at a time.
        
        Args:
            - *address* (str)
            - *zipcode* (str)
        
        Kwargs: 
            - *format\_type* - "json", "xlsx" or "all". Optional. Default is "json"

        Block Endpoints
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Analytics API Block Endpoints:
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        
        -  **histogram_baths**
        -  **histogram_beds**
        -  **histogram_building_area**
        -  **histogram_value**
        -  **histogram_value_sqft**
        -  **rental_value_distribution**
        -  **value_distribution**
        -  **value_ts**
        -  **value_ts_forecast**
        -  **value_ts_historical**

        Args:
        ^^^^^
        
        All of the Analytics API block endpoints take a ``block_data`` argument.
        ``block_data`` can be in the following forms:
        
        A dict with a ``block_id`` like:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            {"block_id": "060750615003005", "meta": "someId"}
        
        For histogram endpoints you can include the ``num_bins`` key:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            {"block_id": "060750615003005", "num_bins": 5, "meta": "someId"}
        
        For time series and distribution endpoints you can include the ``property_type`` key:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            {"block_id": "060750615003005", "property_type": "SFD", "meta": "someId"}
        
        A list of dicts as specified above:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            [{"block_id": "012345678901234", "meta": "someId"}, {"block_id": "012345678901234", "meta": "someId2}]
        
        A single string representing a ``block_id``:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            "012345678901234"
        
        A list of ``block_id`` strings:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            ["012345678901234", "060750615003005"]
        
        The "meta" field is always optional.
        
        See https://api-docs.housecanary.com/#analytics-api-block-level for more details
        on the available parameters such as ``num_bins`` and ``property_type``.
        
        All of the block endpoint methods return a BlockResponse,
        or the output of a custom OutputGenerator if one was specified in the constructor.
        
        
        **Examples:**
                
        .. code:: python
        
            client = housecanary.ApiClient()
            result = client.block.histogram_baths("060750615003005")
        
            result = client.block.histogram_baths({"block_id": "060750615003005", "num_bins": 5})
        
            result = client.block.value_ts({"block_id": "060750615003005", "property_type": "SFD"})
        
            result = client.block.value_ts([{"block_id": "060750615003005", "property_type": "SFD"}, {"block_id": "012345678901234", "property_type": "SFD"}])
        
            result = client.block.value_distribution(["012345678901234", "060750615003005"])
