send_batch for international_street client #17

Closed abelpenton closed 1 year ago

abelpenton commented 4 years ago

See this problem: A have a list of merged address (US and international), and I need a method to validate all address of the list in an efficient way, if the list only have US addresses this was't be a problem because i can create a Batch() use the send_batch method in us-street client. The problem is when there are merge addresses on the list

Right now I solved the problem in a way that i don't really like, I made a batch with US addresses and used send_batch method of us_street client, and for international addresses on the list I sent it one by one. Is obvious this way is not the best. So...

Maybe it's a good idea as long as it's possible to add the send_batch method to the international_street client as the us_street client does.

Or even better if there was a common client that receives a merged list of address of different countries and it be able to validate this addresses combining the send_batch methods in both clients

There are currently no plans to implement batching for the International Street API. The cost (and therefore the liabilities) are much higher for international lookups.
