Converting ODR list from pdf to dataframe

Requirements

• python 3.9+ with pip installed

How to execute the code?

1. Copy the project onto your computer, open in your favourite IDE or enter it in CMD.
2. Run pip install --user virtualenv in the terminal.
3. Run virtualenv .venv' in the terminal to create a virtual environment.
4. Run source .venv/bin/activate on Mac/Linux or .\.venv\Scripts\activate on Windows in your terminal.
5. Run pip install -r requirements.txt in the terminal.
6. Run the 'separating.py' file - it will create a csv file called data.csv with the final dataframe in the same folder.

In this project we already included an html file which was acquired through downloading all of the cases from Dispute resolution bodies. If you would like to use your own html file, make sure to put it in the same folder. You will also have to edit the 'separating.py' file. Change the value of the 'HTML_FILE_PATH' variable which can be found at the top of the file to the name of your new html file, then run the file as normal.
