Documents Distributor - Documents client library for Python

API Version PyPi Apache-2 license

Documents APIs that provide filings such as Global Filings and XML files such as StreetAccount

Global Filings API provides the capability to search and download filings documents from various exchanges around the world. This API will provide access to the full history and the ability to search by date and dataset(source). It does not provide real-time updates to the filings documents. Filings providers currently include EDGAR

Note: The real-time updates to the filing documents will be available within week to ten days and per request able to query up to 8 days of data

StreetAccount XML API provides access to historical StreetAccount (SA) news. SA provides a summary for various corporate and market news written by journalist with background in financial markets.

The API delivers SA stories in XML format based on user-specified date input parameters. When the API request is completed, output files will be made available back to the users through a secure URL. This API has three endpoints (1) Request Files (2) Check Status (3) Get Files.

This API only supports adhoc requests to retrieve historical files and does not support real-time files and if require real-time push should consider the other three methods (pushed via SFTP, to QNT account, or users Azure Storage)

Both historical and real-time Street Account news is also delivered via SFTP, to users QNT account, or users Azure Storage.

Files delivered contain both metadata and content body in each file. This eliminates the need to make multiple requests through multiple services to get all the information.

News API provides access to historical news. This provides a summary for various corporate and market news written by journalist with background in financial markets.

The API delivers stories in different format based on user-specified date input parameters. When the API request is completed, output files will be made available back to the users through a secure URL. This API has three endpoints (1) Request Files (2) Check Status (3) Get Files

Using Pandas

To convert an API response to a Pandas DataFrame, it is necessary to transform it first to a dictionary.

import pandas as pd

response_dict = api_response.to_dict()['data']

simple_json_response = pd.DataFrame(response_dict)
nested_json_response = pd.json_normalize(response_dict)

Debugging

The SDK uses the standard library logging module.

Setting debug to True on an instance of the Configuration class sets the log-level of related packages to DEBUG and enables additional logging in Pythons HTTP Client.

Note: This prints out sensitive information (e.g. the full request and response). Use with care.

import logging
import fds.sdk.DocumentsDistributorDocuments

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)

configuration = fds.sdk.DocumentsDistributorDocuments.Configuration(...)
configuration.debug = True

Configure a Proxy

You can pass proxy settings to the Configuration class:

  • proxy: The URL of the proxy to use.
  • proxy_headers: a dictionary to pass additional headers to the proxy (e.g. Proxy-Authorization).
import fds.sdk.DocumentsDistributorDocuments

configuration = fds.sdk.DocumentsDistributorDocuments.Configuration(
    # ...
    proxy="http://secret:password@localhost:5050",
    proxy_headers={
        "Custom-Proxy-Header": "Custom-Proxy-Header-Value"
    }
)

Custom SSL Certificate

TLS/SSL certificate verification can be configured with the following Configuration parameters:

  • ssl_ca_cert: a path to the certificate to use for verification in PEM format.
  • verify_ssl: setting this to False disables the verification of certificates. Disabling the verification is not recommended, but it might be useful during local development or testing.
import fds.sdk.DocumentsDistributorDocuments

configuration = fds.sdk.DocumentsDistributorDocuments.Configuration(
    # ...
    ssl_ca_cert='/path/to/ca.pem'
)

Request Retries

In case the request retry behaviour should be customized, it is possible to pass a urllib3.Retry object to the retry property of the Configuration.

from urllib3 import Retry
import fds.sdk.DocumentsDistributorDocuments

configuration = fds.sdk.DocumentsDistributorDocuments.Configuration(
    # ...
)

configuration.retries = Retry(total=3, status_forcelist=[500, 502, 503, 504])

Notes for Large OpenAPI documents

If the OpenAPI document is large, imports in fds.sdk.DocumentsDistributorDocuments.apis and fds.sdk.DocumentsDistributorDocuments.models may fail with a RecursionError indicating the maximum recursion limit has been exceeded. In that case, there are a couple of solutions:

Solution 1: Use specific imports for apis and models like:

  • from fds.sdk.DocumentsDistributorDocuments.api.default_api import DefaultApi
  • from fds.sdk.DocumentsDistributorDocuments.model.pet import Pet

Solution 2: Before importing the package, adjust the maximum recursion limit as shown below:

import sys
sys.setrecursionlimit(1500)
import fds.sdk.DocumentsDistributorDocuments
from fds.sdk.DocumentsDistributorDocuments.apis import *
from fds.sdk.DocumentsDistributorDocuments.models import *
