使用 API

本文档介绍了使用 Google Civic Information API 时需要了解的内容。您可以参阅这份 Civic Info API 常见问题解答,其中包含有关该 API 的一些基本信息,以及用户论坛中的常见问题解答。 此外,您还可以在下方查看有关在选举期间查询选民信息的示例。

向 Google 标识您的应用

您的应用每次向 Google Civic Information API 发送请求时都需要标识自己,方法是将 API 密钥添加到每个请求中。

获取和使用 API 密钥

要获取 API 密钥,请执行以下操作:

  1. 打开 API 控制台中的“凭据”页面
  2. 此 API 支持两种类型的凭据。 创建适合您的项目的凭据:
    • OAuth 2.0:当您的应用请求非公开用户数据时,该应用必须将 OAuth 2.0 令牌随请求一起发送。要获取令牌,您的应用应先发送客户端 ID(也可能需要发送客户端密钥)。您可以为网页应用、服务账号或已安装应用生成 OAuth 2.0 凭据。

      注意:由于此 API 没有任何需要 OAuth 2.0 授权的方法,因此您可能只需要获取API 密钥(如下所述)。但是,如果您的应用调用需要用户授权的其他 API,那么您仍然需要 OAuth 2.0 凭据。

      如需了解详情,请参阅 OAuth 2.0 文档

    • API 密钥:未提供 OAuth 2.0 令牌的请求必须发送 API 密钥。 该密钥用于标识您的项目,并提供 API 访问权限、配额和报告。

      此 API 支持多种类型的 API 密钥限制。如果您需要的 API 密钥尚不存在,请在 GCP 控制台中创建 API 密钥,方法是:点击创建凭据 > API 密钥。您可以先对密钥设定相关限制,然后再在生产环境中使用密钥,方法是:点击限制密钥,然后选择其中一项限制

为保障 API 密钥的安全,请遵循以安全的方式使用 API 密钥的最佳做法

在您获得 API 密钥后,您的应用便可在所有请求网址后附加查询参数 key=yourAPIKey

API 密钥可以安全地嵌入网址中;不需要进行任何编码。

API 密钥限制

默认情况下,您的 API 密钥不受限制。如果任何人都可以读取此密钥(例如,如果密钥存储在浏览器中)或访问存储此密钥的设备,则会带来安全方面的问题。我们建议您对此 API 密钥设置限制,以防止未经授权的使用。

如需添加限制,请点击已创建的 API 密钥对话框中的限制密钥。系统随即会显示 API 密钥配置面板:

您选择的限制类型取决于您的应用需求:

  • 直接与 API 交互(即不通过任何后端或中间件)的 Web 应用应添加 HTTP 引荐来源网址限制。 不过,请注意,此类应用会公开其 API 密钥;建议改用服务账号身份验证方案。
  • 无法通过其他方式支持服务账号的后端应用(例如,客户端库中没有受支持语言的嵌入式设备)应添加IP 地址限制,以防范来自不同 IP 地址的客户端的使用。
  • Android 应用应添加 Android 应用限制,并添加您的软件包名称和 SHA-1 签名证书指纹。
  • iOS 应用应添加 iOS 应用限制,并添加任何 iOS 软件包标识符,以限制对这些 iOS 软件包的 API 调用。

在测试期间,您可能不想设置任何限制。不过,建议您在将应用部署到生产环境后,为此密钥添加限制或将其删除。

electionQuery 示例

下面是一个示例(使用 API 版本“v2”),其中调用了 electionQuery API 来获取有效选举 ID 的列表,然后使用 voterInfoQuery API 和选民的注册地址来获取所选选举的信息。

使用 electionQuery 获取有效的选举 ID 列表:

  https://www.googleapis.com/civicinfo/v2/elections?key=<YOUR_API_KEY>
  

electionQuery 响应:

{
 "kind": "civicinfo#electionsqueryresponse",
 "elections": [
  {
   "id": "2000",
   "name": "VIP Test Election",
   "electionDay": "2013-06-06"
  },
  {
   "id": "2124",
   "name": "Rhode Island 2012 Primary Election",
   "electionDay": "2012-09-11"
  },
  {
   "id": "2126",
   "name": "Delaware 2012 Primary Election",
   "electionDay": "2012-09-11"
  }
 ]
}

使用 curl 执行 voterInfoQuery

使用 curl 针对 VIP 测试选举 ID 2000 和地址为 340 Main St, Venice, CA 90291 的选民发送 voterInfoQuery 请求。您可以参阅 voterInfoQuery 响应

curl "https://www.googleapis.com/civicinfo/v2/voterinfo?key=<YOUR_API_KEY>&address=340%20Main%20St.%20Venice%20CA&electionId=2000"

使用 JavaScript 版 Google API 客户端库执行 voterInfoQuery

此示例发出了与上一个 curl 示例相同的 voterInfoQuery,但使用了 JavaScript 客户端库voterInfoQuery 响应与 curl 示例响应相同。
