I'm playing around with the Angel List (AL) API and want to pull all jobs in San San Francisco.
Since I couldn't find an active Python wrapper for the api (if I make any headway, I think I'd like to make my own), I'm using the requests library.
The AL API's results are paginated, and I can't figure out how to move beyond the first page of the results.
Here is my code:
import requests
r_sanfran = requests.get("https://api.angel.co/1/tags/1664/jobs").json()
r_sanfran.keys()
# returns [u'per_page', u'last_page', u'total', u'jobs', u'page']
r_sanfran['last_page']
#returns 16
r_sanfran['page']
# returns 1
I tried adding arguments to requests.get, but that didn't work. I also tried something really dumb - changing the value of the 'page' key like that was magically going to paginate for me.
eg. r_sanfran['page'] = 2
I'm guessing it's something relatively simple, but I can't seem to figure it out so any help would be awesome.
Thanks as always.

Read last_page and make a get request for each page in the range:
import requests
r_sanfran = requests.get("https://api.angel.co/1/tags/1664/jobs").json()
num_pages = r_sanfran['last_page']
for page in range(2, num_pages + 1):
r_sanfran = requests.get("https://api.angel.co/1/tags/1664/jobs", params={'page': page}).json()
print r_sanfran['page']
