Hi Guys!!...
Today in this tutorial, we will learn about few basic commands for programming the Steem blockchain using Python language.
Please, refer to Part 1 before going any further, if the required tools are not installed.
Introduction
This is all about practising the basic commands of "Steem-Python".
Basic commands
Import the Steem function from steem library. After importing, we can use the function to access further commands (variables) inside that function.
>>> from steem import Steem
>>> s = Steem()
All keys
Using all keys, we can query.
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700').keys()
Id
This represents the 'user id' of the steem account holder. This is assigned whenever the user joins for 1st time and it remains permanent for the 'username'
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['id']
143518
Name
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['name']
'abhi3700'
Owner, Active, Posting, Memo Keys
Here, all the keys required to access account's different features.
Owner
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['owner']
{'weight_threshold': 1, 'account_auths': [], 'key_auths': [['**************************************************', 1]]}
Active
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['active']
{'weight_threshold': 1, 'account_auths': [], 'key_auths': [['**************************************************', 1]]}
Posting
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['posting']
{'weight_threshold': 1, 'account_auths': [['utopian.app', 1]], 'key_auths': [['**************************************************', 1]]}
Memo
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['memo_key']
'**************************************************'
Public Profile Settings
This shows the meta-data about the user.
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['json_metadata']
'{"profile":{"name":"Abhijit Roy","about":"A Software Developer, Traveller, Crypto Trader, Blockchain enthusiast","location":"Chandigarh, India","profile_image":"https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/bitinfocoinfree.appspot.com/o/14068548_1125160424216001_2627046384272844500_o.jpg?alt=media&token=8bb1b1f9-36f5-4b9a-8220-4134f01f8542","website":"https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.topux.bitinfocoin","cover_image":"https://www.ethereum.org/images/assets/1900/Ethereum-homestead-background-4.jpg"}}'
Proxy
It is null in this case as no proxy server used.
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['proxy']
''
Last owner update
It comes from the UNIX command i.e. January 1st 1970. Also birthdays are written in timestamps (time from this date till date).
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['last_owner_update']
'1970-01-01T00:00:00'
Last account update
It mainly is when the account settings (public profile) was last updated.
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['last_account_update']
'2017-11-26T17:57:18'
Account creation time
The date, time when the account was created.
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['created']
'2017-04-02T08:00:57'
Recovery account
If your account gets hacked, it can be recovered before any data is manipulated.
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['recovery_account']
'steem'
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['last_account_recovery']
'1970-01-01T00:00:00'

Post counts
The no. of posts posted by the user.
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['post_count']
198
Can vote
Whether a person can vote or not.
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['can_vote']
True
Voting Power
This depends upon the 'steem power' a user holds. Here, it calculates out of 10,000.
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['voting_power']
9800
So, I hold 98 % voting power currently.
Last vote time
Last time, I voted.
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['last_vote_time']
'2017-12-01T18:30:27'
Balance
All balances in steem, SBD.
The user account looks like this...
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['balance']
'0.000 STEEM'
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['sbd_balance']
'0.603 SBD'
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['savings_sbd_balance']
'0.000 SBD'
Vesting
Basically, it defines the steem power.
Click here for details.
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['vesting_shares']
'1038936.179712 VESTS'
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['delegated_vesting_shares']
'0.000000 VESTS'
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['received_vesting_shares']
'12358.959056 VESTS'
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['vesting_withdraw_rate']
'0.000000 VESTS'
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['next_vesting_withdrawal']
'1969-12-31T23:59:59'
Basically, I have never withdrawn my steem-power. The time itself indicates i.e. before Jan 1, 1970 ())
Bandwidth
It is the power to post, upvote, comment. The more Steem-power one has, the more steem-blockchain's bandwidth is owned by the user.
It is like holding a percent of the network.
# Content post bandwidth
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['average_bandwidth']
'46792401000'
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['lifetime_bandwidth']
'677875000000'
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['last_bandwidth_update']
'2017-12-06T20:42:42'
**************************************************************************************************
# Market bandwidth
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['average_market_bandwidth']
1660341514
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['lifetime_market_bandwidth']
'24130000000'
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['last_market_bandwidth_update']
'2017-12-06T20:42:42'
Last post date
The date, time for last post.
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['last_post']
'2017-12-03T13:20:21'
Witness votes
The witnesses I have voted for.
>>> s.get_account('abhi3700')['witness_votes']
['steemed', 'utopian-io']
