Python GeoPy Package: Find the details of a given zip code
Default Options Object (Nominatim API): Exercise-3 with Solution
Write a Python program to find the details of a given zip code using Nominatim API and GeoPy package.
Sample Solution:
Python Code:
from geopy.geocoders import Nominatim
geolocator = Nominatim(user_agent="geoapiExercises")
zipcode1 = "99501"
print("\nZipcode:",zipcode1)
location = geolocator.geocode(zipcode1)
print("Details of the said pincode:")
print(location.address)
zipcode2 = "CA9 3HX"
print("\nZipcode:",zipcode2)
location = geolocator.geocode(zipcode2)
print("Details of the said pincode:")
print(location.address)
zipcode3 = "61000"
print("\nZipcode:",zipcode3)
location = geolocator.geocode(zipcode3)
print("Details of the said pincode:")
print(location.address)
zipcode4 = "713101"
print("\nZipcode:",zipcode4)
location = geolocator.geocode(zipcode4)
print("Details of the said pincode:")
print(location.address)
Sample Output:
Zipcode: 99501 Details of the said pincode: Anchorage, Alaska, 99501, USA Zipcode: CA9 3HX Details of the said pincode: Alston Moor, CA9 3HX, UK Zipcode: 61000 Details of the said pincode: Alençon, Normandie, France métropolitaine, 61000, France Zipcode: 713101 Details of the said pincode: Purba Bardhaman, West Bengal, 713101, India

Python: Tips of the Day
Find current directory and file's directory:
To get the full path to the directory a Python file is contained in, write this in that file:
import os dir_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))
(Note that the incantation above won't work if you've already used os.chdir() to change your current working directory, since the value of the __file__ constant is relative to the current working directory and is not changed by an os.chdir() call.)
To get the current working directory use
import os cwd = os.getcwd()
Documentation references for the modules, constants and functions used above:
- The os and os.path modules.
- The __file__ constant
- os.path.realpath(path) (returns "the canonical path of the specified filename, eliminating any symbolic links encountered in the path")
- os.path.dirname(path) (returns "the directory name of pathname path")
- os.getcwd() (returns "a string representing the current working directory")
- os.chdir(path) ("change the current working directory to path")
