import geouk
client = geouk.Client('your_api_key...')
# Get a list of place names and postcodes starting with the query string's
# first 2 characters (ideal for use with a typeahead).
suggestions = geouk.resources.Place.typeahead(client, 'wo...')
# Fetch a list of `Place`s that match the given query string
places = geouk.resources.Place.search(client, 'worcester')
print(places[0].humanized_name, places[0].geo_coords)
>> Worcester [52.18935, -2.22001]
# Fetch all the (data) sources
sources = geouk.resources.Source.all(client)
# Fetch a single (data) source
source = geouk.resources.Source.one(client, 'geonames')
