Sickle is lightweight OAI-PMH client library written in Python. It has been designed for conveniently retrieving data from OAI interfaces the Pythonic way:
>>> sickle = Sickle('http://elis.da.ulcc.ac.uk/cgi/oai2') >>> records = sickle.ListRecords(metadataPrefix='oai_dc')
Most importantly, Sickle lets you iterate through OAI records without having to deal
with things like result batches or resumptionTokens
yourself:
>>> records.next() <Record oai:eprints.rclis.org:4088>
pip install sickle
