New Features
Help Endpoint
We've moved the embedded help to a /help endpoint, which provides detailed information about how to use company_dns and its various endpoints. This new endpoint is accessible via the following URL:
/help
Attribution of Python modules, models, and data sets
We've added a new feature that attributes the key used Python modules, models, and data sets to their source. This will make it easier for users to understand where the data is coming from and ensure that we are giving proper credit to the original sources.
Bug Fixes
Handling stale CIKs
We've fixed a bug that caused public companies with stale CIKs to only report Wikipedia data. Now, users will get the correct data when querying these companies.
Handling multiple valid CIKs
We've also fixed a bug that caused an error to be reported with two separate company objects when a company had multiple valid CIKs. Now, only one company will be reported in this scenario.
Handling non-company entities
We've fixed a bug that caused non-company entities to be searched for, resulting in an error. Now, users will receive a not found error when attempting to search for non-company entities.
Changes to edgar.py module
We've made changes to the lib/edgar.py module to ensure that it returns data in alignment with other modules.
