PreHEAT Open Python Package

This is the open Python package designed to wrap Neogrid’s REST API.

For a quick introduction on how to use the package, see the quick start guide.

Installation and configuration

Simple installation:

Install the package directly from PyPi using:

pip install preheat_open

Configuring the toolbox

First, make sure that you have created an API key for your user. This can be done on your user profile page in the PreHEAT App.

Your API key may be set within the code code itself. We do however recommend to use a YAML configuration file. This user configuration file should be located in the following directories:

OS

User level (recommended)

Machine level

Windows

C:/Users/[your user]/.preheat/config.yaml

(unsupported)

Linux

~/.preheat/config.yaml

/etc[/opt]/preheat/config.yaml

The default content of a YAML configuration file is given here. The API key can be pasted under neogrid_api -> token.
