hilltop-py - Hilltop Python tools

This package contains a variety of Python tools for accessing data contained in Hilltop.

Note

A major rewrite of the web service functions has occurred for version 2, which makes the code much simpler as well as the data requests. Also, there is more consistency with the terminology between Hilltop and hilltop-py as well as within the hilltop-py functions. Consequently, there are some differences that the user will need to pay attention to and update in their scripts when making requests. The new Hilltop module will be the only module being maintained going forward. But the old modules will still be accessible as in the past.

Not all Data Types are currently supported. These include for example HydSection and HydFacecard. The response from the Hilltop server is very different as compared to other Data Types (and I don’t really understand what they mean). If there is enough demand (or support), then I might add them.

For further information about the Hilltop server, please look through the official Hilltop server doc.
