Mouser provides two separate API keys:
- one for the cart and orders
- one for part searches.
Go to Mouser's API hub to request the keys.
To store the keys, two options:
- create two environmental variables
MOUSER_ORDER_API_KEYandMOUSER_PART_API_KEYwith the respective values of each key - create a file named
mouser_api_keys.yamlwith the order API key on the first line and the part API key on a second line.
The keys will be automatically loaded for each API request.

The first positional argument is the category of the request: cart (for MouserCart), order, history (for MouserOrderHistory) and search (for SearchAPI).
The second argument is the type of operation from the list of operations for each category.
Run mouser --help for more information about the usage.
