This library is used to grab federal documents from the United States Federal Register. Additionally, it will help simplify the process of building requests for the different fields that can be returned for specific documents.
To install the library, run the following command from the terminal.
pip install federal-register
To upgrade the library, run the following command from the terminal.
pip install --upgrade federal-register
Here is a simple example of using the federal_register
library to grab a document
using the document number.
from pprint import pprint
from federal_register.client import FederalRegister
# Initialize the client.
federal_register_client = FederalRegister()
# Grab a specific document.
federal_document = federal_register_client.document_by_id(
document_id='2020-17469',
fields='all'
)
# Print it out.
pprint(federal_document)
