Python is the go‑to language for integrating with modern web and blockchain APIs. In Setting Up Python for API Use, Steven Paul walks you through installing Python, configuring virtual environments, and leveraging popular libraries (Requests, python‐jsonrpc, web3.py) to connect with REST, WebSocket, and JSON‑RPC endpoints.
• Install and manage Python 3 environments with venv and pip.
• Authenticate and consume public and private APIs using API keys, OAuth, and HMAC signatures.
• Build sample scripts to query on‑chain data from Ethereum, Tron, and Solana nodes.
• Parse JSON responses, handle rate limits, and automate data collection tasks.
This hands‑on workbook includes code snippets, configuration samples, and exercises so that developers, data analysts, and technical students can confidently build and test Python‑based API integrations for any web or blockchain service.
