# About

iracing-data-api is a simple Python wrapper around the General Data API released by iRacing in January 2022 and documented [here](https://forums.iracing.com/discussion/15068/general-availability-of-data-api/).

The client allows easy access to some of the most useful endpoints of the data API.

# Pre-installation

Ensure that you have marked your account with iRacing for legacy authentication - accounts with 2FA will not work with the API. This is a limitation of iRacing, not this wrapper.

# Installation

`pip install iracingdataapi`

# Examples

## Using Oauth2 access token

When you have acquired an Oauth2 access token from iRacing, and have ensured that token is valid, you can
use it like so in this client:

```python
from iracingdataapi.client import irDataClient

idc = irDataClient(access_token=[YOUR OAUTH2 TOKEN])
```

The rest of the client will work exactly the same, except that when that token expires you will find the client
raises an `AccessTokenInvalid` exception. For now, managing refreshing of tokens etc is outside the scope of
this client, so build around that exception and reinitialise the client with a new token when necessary. For instance:

```python
try:
  lap_data = idc.result_lap_data(subsession_id=12345678, cust_id=987654)
except AccessTokenInvalid:
  # access token is invalid
  new_token = do_something_in_your_code_to_refresh_token()
  idc = irDataClient(access_token=[NEW TOKEN])
  lap_data = idc.result_lap_data(subsession_id=12345678, cust_id=987654)
```

All available methods of `irDataClient` are included in `client.py`.

## Enabling Pydantic type hinting

You can opt-in to use of Pydantic model objects in the return of all method endpoints by initialising with `use_pydantic` like so:

```python
idc = irDataClient(access_token=[YOUR OAUTH2 TOKEN], use_pydantic=True)
```

## Accessing Rate Limit Information

The iRacing API implements rate limiting to prevent abuse and ensure fair usage. This client automatically tracks rate limit information from API responses and makes it available through the `rate_limit` property.

```python
from iracingdataapi.client import irDataClient

idc = irDataClient(username=[YOUR iRACING USERNAME], password=[YOUR iRACING PASSWORD])

# Make an API call
idc.get_cars()

# Check rate limit information
if idc.rate_limit.has_data:
    print(f"Rate limit: {idc.rate_limit.limit}")
    print(f"Remaining requests: {idc.rate_limit.remaining}")
    print(f"Reset time (UTC): {idc.rate_limit.reset_time}")
    print(f"Seconds until reset: {idc.rate_limit.seconds_until_reset}")

    # Check if we're rate limited
    if idc.rate_limit.is_rate_limited:
        print("Rate limit exceeded! Wait before making more requests.")
```

The `rate_limit` object provides the following properties:

- `limit`: The total number of requests allowed per time window
- `remaining`: Number of requests remaining in the current window
- `reset`: Unix timestamp when the rate limit will reset
- `reset_time`: Rate limit reset time as a UTC datetime object
- `seconds_until_reset`: Number of seconds until the rate limit resets
- `is_rate_limited`: Boolean indicating if the rate limit has been exhausted
- `has_data`: Boolean indicating if rate limit data is available from the API

Note: Rate limit data is only available after making at least one API request. The `has_data` property will be `False` until the first successful API response.

# Contributing

I welcome all pull requests for improvements or missing endpoints over time as they are added by iRacing.

# Changelog

**1.4.0**

- Feature: expose rate limit headers
- Improvement: Return objects for improved type hinting
- Fix: Multiple missing endpoints
- fix: include falsy but valid parameter values (e.g. 0, False) in payload
- Fix: member_awards endpoint

**1.3.0**

- Added a minimal Oauth2 implementation. You can now choose to send either username/password credentials as before, or use the iRacing Oauth2 token to make your requests. More information in the readme.

**1.2.3**

- Update `result_search_hosted` to remove the `cust_id`/`host_cust_id` requirement, and also add the `team_id` parameter. Thanks @glenbecker for that.

**1.2.2**

- Added `driver_list` endpoint, thanks to @nylanderj for that
- Corrected issues where `if [parameter]` would skip if the parameter was correctly set to 0, e.g. `race_week_num`. Thanks to @abelsm2 for that
- Added initial test setup
- Added type hints throughout

**1.2.0**
Thanks to @ablesm2 for these changes.

- Added missing endpoints
  - `time_attack_member_season_results()`
    `stats_member_recap()`
    `stats_member_division()`
    `series_past_seasons()`
    `league_roster()`
- Removed check for cust_id on methods that default the currently logged in member:
  - `stats_member_summary()`
    `stats_member_yearly()`
    `stats_member_recent_races()`

**1.1.6**

- More rate limiting fixes

**1.1.5**

- Add rate limiting to `_get_resource`

**1.1.4**

- Fix `result_search_series` to correctly include `finish_range_begin` as an option
- Fix `season_spectator_subsessionids` to correctly return the IDs rather than the object

**1.1.3**

- Bug fix for some 5xx errors that are thrown by iRacing
- Added the `season_spectator_subsessionids()` endpoint

**1.1.0**

- Added docstrings to all methods for developer experience
- Renamed `series()` to `get_series()` for consistency. **Breaking change:** For that same consistency, `series` has been reimplemented as a property which returns the series with their assets. To amend your implementation, either switch to `get_series()` or remove any brackets in your call of `series`.
- Renamed `get_carclass()` to `get_carclasses()` to be more consistent with other endpoints. **NOTE:** `get_carclass()` will be removed in a future release.
- Added assets to the returned data of `tracks`. If you prefer not to get those assets, use `get_tracks()`.
- Removed redundant cookie handling code, as that is all handled within `requests.Session`
- Fixed a ratelimiting error
- Fixed a ratelimiting bug
- Fixed a bug related to empty results
- Improved handling of results

**1.0.6**

- Bug fix in `result_lap_data` method, which will now return an empty list for any `cust_id`/`subsession_id` combinations for which laps were not turned.

**1.0.5**

- Added a wait when hitting a rate limit

**1.0.4**

- Bug fix: Previously an attempt wouldn't be retried if the authentication data became stale. This release fixes that

**1.0.3**

- Added the endpoints described in the [August 22nd update](https://forums.iracing.com/discussion/comment/219438/#Comment_219438)

**1.0.2**

- Adjusted login flow to avoid logging in on instantiation of an `irDataClient` object
- Login now happens either on the initial call to an iRacing endpoint, or whenever a `401 Unauthorized` response is received form iRacing

**1.0.1**

- Adjusted `result_search_series` to allow searches by date range without using season years and quarters.
