Using xule within a Python script #6

Hi, I wish to use xule to extract pertinent data from SEC 10-Q filings but I'm not finding any documentation on how to do so strictly within Python. Is it possible, given that this project is written in Python?

Hi @micmalti - check out https://xbrl.us/xule linked in the about detail for this repository - documentation for the spec is posted in the sidebar there.

Hi @micmalti - apologies, as I should have also referenced an issue in this repository. See #5

Hi @davidtauriello - thank you for your reply. I had hoped that I could use this plugin without using Arelle but it seems that that's not possible. The current version of Arelle on pypi hasn't received any updates in 3+ years besides being written in Python 2.7. Hopefully, this situation may change soon, at which point I'll have a chance to test out your package.
