Open josh-chamberlain opened 1 month ago

josh-chamberlain commented 1 month ago

Context

We have a lot of potential data sources in MuckRock, and we have a simple scraper for them.

Example of potentially highly relevant URLs: https://www.muckrock.com/foi/list/?page=1&per_page=100&q=use+of+force

Also, we request a lot of things. It would cool to one day import successful requests to our database: https://www.muckrock.com/foi/organization-list/?sort=date_submitted&order=desc

@bonjarlow just assigning you since you mentioned you were looking at it! I also adjusted the issue to make space for an allegheny county target rather than record type.
