Reintegrate aspects from "uspto-peds-python" fork

Open amotl opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

Coming from #7, @rahul-gj created a fork of this library called uspto-peds-python, which just wraps the PEDS Search API and is purely based on the requests and BeautifulSoup packages.

This variant is obviously able to operate with a trimmed down subset of dependencies making it apparently more usable for specific use cases. However, the same thing could be achieved using extras_require() mechanisms.

This issue has been created to track the reintegration of both variants with each other again.

Thanks for your valuable input on that, Rahul.

I don't understand this re-integration thing as I am new to this. If it requires my action please help me with that.

No worries Rahul, it's just a note-to-self that I might come back to this to make the uspto-opendata-python module universal enough that it would solve your basic needs as well as currently outlined by your uspto-peds-python fork. So, we don't have to maintain the common subset of the relevant code at two places.

There's no direct action required by you. Have a good weekend and thanks again!
