This project is to assist with a term long course project. The script runs through a long list of isbn's and calls the Google Books API. Certain book information is then pulled from the api call and immediatly entered into the database. The original plan was to make a text file and upload it that way but some issues were encountered with this method. The code still exists and can be easily switched to if needed.

• README.md - This readme.

• app.py - The original python script that still uses the text file output method. Only being used to test parse and error functionality. Does not function entirely as intended.

• bookCollector.py - The updated script that uses the databaseConnector to query our database. This script makes many api calls based on a list of isbns generated from books.csv. It then error checks to ensure the api returns all the information required by our system. If it does not, it simply skips that entry and moves onto the next entry as incomplete information is useless to us. There are so many isbns and calls that we still get a substantial return volume from the script.

• databaseConnector.py - Our main app's database connector to allow queries to be called to add the books directly to our database.

• books.csv - The primary list of books used to call the api based on ISBN.

• books.txt - The primary book information output.

• inventory.txt - The inventory information output.

• deletetxt.sh - A bash script used to delete the two texts files inbetween runs.

• requirements.txt - The file containing project requirements. Used to call the -r flag on pip install.
