EDGAR parser for Insight Data Engineer fellowship

Python code to parse EDGAR output and create new log files containing summary.

Project status: 1.0 release

Directory	Description of Contents
src	main code base
run.sh	shell script to run source
insight_testsuite	test suites and test data
input	where EDGAR files will reside
output	log files will be written

####Approximate pseudocode

ip_lookup -> dictionary of last query time -> set(ip)
log_table -> dictionary of ip -> [original_query_time, num_documents]
prev_time -> previous value of query time in log file; not value of last query

interval  <- interval from file
prev_time <- minimum time available in datetime

for each line in log, check current_time:
    if current_time's changed:
        for log_item in ip_lookup for each where query_time in
            [prev_time + 1 - interval, current_time - interval]:
                for log_item in log_table, sorted by original_query_time:
                    print log_item
                delete log_table[log_item]
            delete ip_lookup[current_time - interval]
        change prev_time to current_time
    if line[ip] exists in log_table:    ### this means we're still inside interval
        update log_table[ip][num_documents] += 1
        delete ip_lookup[current_time - interval + 1][ip]
        add ip_lookup[current_time][ip]
    else:  ### line[ip] doesn't exist
        add ip_lookup[current_time] = ip
        add log_table[ip][original_query_time] = current_time
        add log_table[ip][num_documents] = 1

for log_item in log_table, sorted by original_query_time:
    print log_item, final_time = current_time

Test cases in my-tests

1. Time has expired but IP doesn't appear again.
2. Change in time > 1.
3. Queries are still active at end of log.
4. Other inactivity periods.

TODOs

1. Could be more modular.
2. The data structure is a little complicated. Making it an object would be nice.
3. Not currently using Pythonic EAFP coding style vs. LBYL.
4. Dictionary comprehension and row printing could be a little prettier.
