A simple API wrapper for `US National Park Services <https://www.nps.gov/index.htm>`__.

Getting an API key
------------------
You must have an API key with the National Park Services to use this library.
Register for your free API key `here <https://www.nps.gov/subjects/developer/get-started.htm>`__.

API documentation

Thorough National Park Service API documentation can be found `here <https://www.nps.gov/subjects/developer/api-documentation.htm#/>`__.

Installation
------------

::

    pip install python-natlparks

API examples
------------
Let's get started by instantiating a NatlParks object with your API key.

.. code:: python

    from natlparks import NatlParks
    parks = NatlParks(your_api_key)


Now, you can browse various API endpoints.
