EDGAR Filings Scraper

Steps to run scraper:

1. Install GeckoDriver and FireFox
   a. on line 13 in main.py, replace the given GeckoDriver executable's location with yours. For example:

    executable_path="/path/to/geckodriver"
   

   Becomes

    executable_path="/Users/archisharun/Downloads/geckodriver"
   

   on my own machine, since my GeckoDriver was installed in my Downloads folder.

2. Clone Repo and run the following commands in terminal

cd your/path/to/edgar-scraper
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install requirements.txt

3. Run project with the following command!

python3 main.py

Note: An instance of Firefox will automatically open when the program starts. This doesn't necessarily mean that it will work all the way through. Depending on the day, I estimate that the process should take 20-30 mins (working on testing and optimizing!)
