Runing

Check data.txt to see the format in which name of company's, CIK code date (prior to) and count is given to get the filings of that company.

Now to run it start python shell

This will download the AAPL company's 10-K filings and the data will be saved in "SEC-Edgar-data" folder which will be created on the run time.

Example

def get_filings():
	t1 = time.time()
	
	# create object
	seccrawler = SecCrawler()

	companyCode = 'AAPL'    # company code for apple 
	cik = '0000320193'      # cik code for apple
	date = '20010101'       # date from which filings should be downloaded
