# nordpool
Python library for fetching Nord Pool Elspot prices.
## Python version
The minimum supported Python version is 3.9, which receives security updates until [2025-10](https://devguide.python.org/versions/).
The library won't install without trickery on older versions, so update your Python.
## Installing
To install from [PyPi](https://pypi.org/project/nordpool/), use
`pip install nordpool`
### To upgrade
To upgrade installation from PyPi, use
`pip install -U nordpool`
#### Example
```python
# Import library for fetching Elspot data
from nordpool import elspot
from pprint import pprint
# Initialize class for fetching Elspot prices
prices_spot = elspot.Prices()
# Fetch hourly Elspot prices for Finland and print the resulting dictionary
# If the prices are reported as None, it means that the prices fetched aren't yet available.
# The library by default tries to fetch prices for tomorrow and they're released ~13:00 Swedish time.
pprint(prices_spot.hourly(areas=['FI']))
```
###### Output
```python
