Dependencies

Install python requirements

pip install -r requirements.txt

This tool also uses the OpenSkyApi available at https://github.com/openskynetwork/opensky-api. Install it using:

git clone https://github.com/openskynetwork/opensky-api 
pip install -e /path/to/repository/python

Install Parsr docker image

docker run -p 3001:3001 axarev/parsr

Parsr

As some registers are in the form of a pdf file, AVOSINT uses parsr (https://github.com/axa-group/Parsr) Due to a bug in the current version of the parsr library (axa-group/Parsr#565 (comment)) it is necessary to apply the following fix in the parsr-client python library:

return {
- 'file': file,
- 'config': config,
+ 'file': file_path,
+ 'config': config_path,
  'status_code': r.status_code,
  'server_response': r.text
}
