How to search by appEarlyPubNumber?
I tried following.
from uspto.peds.client import UsptoPatentExaminationDataSystemClient
client = UsptoPatentExaminationDataSystemClient()
client.search('appEarlyPubNumber:(US 2006-0063272 A1)')
client.search('appEarlyPubNumber:(US 2006-0063272)')
client.search('appEarlyPubNumber:(2006-0063272 A1)')
client.search('appEarlyPubNumber:(2006-0063272 2017-0042821)')
all gives
{'numFound': 0,
'start': 0,
'docs': [],
'metadata': {'indexLastUpdatedDate': 'Thu May 30 02:30:21 EDT 2019',
'queryId': '9f12c1af-cb6b-4f8c-8e0e-97289ba404ec',
'responseHeader': {'zkConnected': True, 'status': 0, 'QTime': 73}}}
I know client have some issues but search by patent number is working fine.
client.search('patentNumber:(6583088 6875727 8697602)')
I tried it manually and by seeing network tab in chrome developer tools it was something like this.
"appEarlyPubNumber:(*20170042821*)"
I also tried multiple numbers like
client.search("appEarlyPubNumber:(*20180344680* *20180228903*)")
and it works.
Thanks.
Dear Rahul,
thanks for letting us know! I really would like to improve the CLI interface to better support such scenarios mainly revolving around acquisition of single or multiple application or publication numbers.
As I can see this also relates to #9, #11 and #12, I would like to reopen this issue to keep it as a bookmark for the point in time where I might get some time to dedicate to improvements like that.
Your investigations around that are very important, Rahul - so thanks again!
With kind regards, Andreas.
Dear Rahul,
after also trying to query by appEarlyPubNumber
, I can confirm your observations reported at https://github.com/ip-tools/uspto-opendata-python/issues/13#issuecomment-497231818. The documentation definitively should be updated.
With kind regards, Andreas.
