How to speed up API requests?

by

You may want to send requests in parallel. Python provides multiprocessing module which is suitable for task like this.

Sample code:

from multiprocessing import Pool

def get_data(i):
    r1 = requests.get('https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/textsearch/json?query='+ i +'&key=MY_KEY')
    a = r1.json()
    pid = a['results'][0]['place_id']
    r2 = requests.get('https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/details/json?placeid='+pid+'&key=MY_KEY')
    b = r2.json()
    phone = b['result']['formatted_phone_number']
    name = b['result']['name']
    website = b['result']['website']
    return ' '.join((phone, name, website))

if __name__ == '__main__':
    terms = input("input places separated by comma").split(",")
    with Pool(5) as p:
        print(p.map(get_data, terms))
