allabolag 0.9.0

Scrape data from allabolag.se.

This is a scraper for collecting data from allabolag.se. It has no formal relationship with the site.

It is written and maintained for Newsworthy, but could possibly come in handy for other people as well.

Installing

pip install allabolag

Example usage

from allabolag import Company

company = Company("559071-2807")

# show all available data about the company in a raw...
print(company.raw_data)

# ...or cleaned format
print(company.data)

And you can iterate the list of recent liquidations.

from allabolag import iter_liquidated_companies

for company in iter_liquidated_companies(until="2019-06-01"):
  print(company)

Use AWS API Gateway to rotate IP addresses

from allabolag import AWSGatewayRequestClient
request_client = AWSGatewayRequestClient()
company = Company("559071-2807", request_client=request_client)

for company in iter_liquidated_companies(until="2019-06-01",request_client=request_client):
  print(company)
