The Bacterial and Viral Bioinformatics Resource Center (BV-BRC) is an online resource for research in bacterial and viral infectious disease. BV-BRC provides a Data API that can be used to request data from BV-BRC in your own workflows.

bvbrc is a python package that is intended to make interacting with the BV-BRC Data API within python code feel straightfoward and intuitive. Please reference the bvbrc documentation for help using bvbrc.
