New Feature?

Adding New Features in PVGIS' API¶

If you know your ways around Python, it should be not difficult to add a new feature (i.e. an algorithm or some helper function) in PVGIS' API!

Given a working implementation of a function of interest in Python, preferrably using NumPy, the steps to integrate it in PVGIS' API are:

1. add the function as a Python module under the algorithms directory
2. add a new function under the api directory
3. optionally, add a new Typer-based command for the command line interface
4. optionally, add a new FastAPI-based entrypoint
