# SerpApi Local Dev Loop ## Overview Set up local development for SerpApi with response caching, fixture recording, and offline testing. SerpApi charges per search, so caching results locally is critical for cost-effective development. ## Instructions ### Step 1: Record Real Responses as Fixtures ```python import serpapi, json, os, hashlib def record_fixture(params: dict, fixtures_dir="tests/fixtures"): """Run a real search and save the response as a fixture file.""" os.makedirs(fixtures_dir, exist_ok=True) client = serpapi.Client(api_key=os.environ["SERPAPI_API_KEY"]) result = client.search(**params) # Deterministic filename from params key = hashlib.md5(json.dumps(params, sort_keys=True).encode()).hexdigest()[:12] path = os.path.join(fixtures_dir, f"{params['engine']}_{key}.json") with open(path, "w") as f: json.dump(dict(result), f, indent=2) print(f"Recorded: {path}") # Record fixtures for common queries record_fixture({"engine": "google", "q": "python tutorial", "num": 5}) record_fixture({"engine": "youtube", "search_query": "react hooks"}) record_fixture({"engine": "bing", "q": "machine learning"}) ``` ### Step 2: Mock Client for Testing ```python import json, os class MockSerpApiClient: def __init__(self, fixtures_dir="tests/fixtures"): self.fixtures_dir = fixtures_dir def search(self, **params): key = hashlib.md5(json.dumps(params, sort_keys=True).encode()).hexdigest()[:12] path =...
