cartodb-api

 

Builds:

• Master:

The main reason this library exists is because the cartodb version only seems to handle files and urls. While this library was written to handle streaming of whatever. Also this library is promised based as well.

CLI

cartodb-upload

To interface with the Cartodb Import API

cartodb-upload --f=someGeoJSON.json --k={YOUR_API_KEY} --a={YOUR_ACCOUNT}

or streaming

Notes:

• As of right now only basic imports are supported. Synchronization may be implemented later.
• Currently using upload with the sql api is sufficient for our needs.

cat someGeoJSON.json | cartodb-upload --k={YOUR_API_KEY} --a={YOUR_ACCOUNT}

cartodb-sql

To interface with the Cartodb Sql API

cartodb-sql --s="select count(*) from parcels;" --k={YOUR_API_KEY} --a={YOUR_ACCOUNT}

To see additional options and arguments see each relative ./cli/*.coffee file.

Plans:

• better readme with cli and library options
• to support missing APIS:
• Map (anonymous maps):
• status (to get layergroupid)
• update / insert map
• Import:
  • status
