An EUR-Lex parser for Python.

Usage

You can install this package as follows:

pip install -U eurlex

After installing this package, you can download and parse any document from EUR-Lex:

from eurlex import get_html_by_celex_id, parse_html

# Retrieve and parse the document with CELEX ID "32019R0947"
celex_id = "32019R0947"
html = get_html_by_celex_id(celex_id)
df = parse_html(html)

# Show the first line of Article 1
df_article_1 = df[df.article == "1"]
df_article_1_line_1 = df_article_1.iloc[0]
print(df_article_1_line_1.text)
>>> "This Regulation lays down detailed provisions for the operation of unmanned aircraft systems as well as for personnel, including remote pilots and organisations involved in those operations."

Every document on EUR-Lex displays a CELEX number at the top of the page. More information on CELEX numbers can be found on the EUR-Lex website.

For more information about the methods in this package, see the unit tests and doctests.
