Some examples on how to connect to the FEWS PI-JSON REST Web Service:
Python
To get time series from FEWS using python the following example uses the requests module and reads the time series data into a dictionary.
import requests
url = 'http://localhost:8080/FewsWebServices/rest/fewspiservice/v1/timeseries'
params = dict(
documentVersion='1.23',
documentFormat='PI_JSON'
)
response = requests.get(url=url, params=params)
data = response.json()
To see an example of creating a time series plot with python using matplotlib, see the following Python Matplotlib time series example.
