Parsers

This folder contains the parsing modules for each different providers.

Each parser takes a file as input (usually a PDF) and returns a DeviceCarbonFootprint object.

Keep each parser in a distinct module (file), and move common code to the lib folder.

Development

When working on a parser, download the corresponding file locally then run:

python -m tools.parsers.dell_laptop carbon-footprint-wyse-3030.pdf

You might need to install some libraries.

pip install -r requirements.txt
apt install tesseract-ocr

To check that everything is typed properly, install the test requirements.

pip install -r requirements-testing.txt

Then you can run:

mypy --strict --ignore-missing-imports tools
