:old_key: Key Features

• Use of modern Python keywords: async and await.
• Every object is fully type hinted.
• Objects get cached, this increases speed and avoids unnecessary API requests.

:earth_africa: Documentation

AioPokéApi has a very minimal website, which you can find here. It also has some documentation.

:comet: Installation

pip install aiopokeapi

:rocket: Getting started

Aiopoke's goal is to be simple and easy to use:

import asyncio
import aiopoke

async def main():
   client = aiopoke.AiopokeClient()

   ability = await client.get_ability(1)
   generation = await ability.generation.fetch()

   await client.close()

asyncio.run(main())

Or even better, using a context manager:

# in main()
async with aiopoke.AiopokeClient() as client:
   ability = await client.get_ability(1)
   generation = await ability.generation.fetch()
