Hi,
As above title please, looking to run a count of news articles for a particular RIC, date range and ‘topic’. I.e. TSLA.O, 6th November 2023 - 10 November 2023, topic=SIGDEV.
I’d like a count of news articles per day.
Is this possible?
I’m aware of how to run get news story for the above, but it’s time consuming. I’d just like to run a count of news articles or headlines - that meet the above criteria - per each day within the specified date range.
Thank you
Hi @di.ti,
I believe it might be best to use the RD Lib. for Python's functionanity called 'Delivery' in the following way:
import refinitiv.data as rd
try: # The following libraries are not available in Codebook, thus this try loop
rd.open_session(
config_name="C:\\Example.DataLibrary.Python-main\\Configuration\\refinitiv-data.config.json", # this is where my config file is located
name="desktop.workspace") # rdp.platform
except:
rd.open_session()
company = "TSLA.O"
start = "2023-11-06"
end = "2023-11-10"
source = "SIGDEV"
request_definition = rd.delivery.endpoint_request.Definition(
url=f"https://api.refinitiv.com/data/news/v1/headlines?query={company}%20and%20{source}%20daterange:%22{start},{end}%22",
method = rd.delivery.endpoint_request.RequestMethod.GET)
response = request_definition.get_data()
response.data.raw['meta']['count']
Does this meet your need?
N.B.: You can find info abou this endpoint (which is named a `url` above) here; e.g.: "Limit of headline (default 10, range value: [0, 100])"
Thank you for this. This works at generating a count of all articles in the date range, but any chance that it could generate a count of how many articles meet this criteria for each day within the start date and end date?
@di.ti , in that case, this should work:
company:str="TSLA.O"
start: str ="2023-11-01"
end: str ="2023-11-10"
source: str ="SIGDEV"
strt_dte:datetime=datetime.strptime(start,'%Y-%m-%d')
strt_dtep1:datetime=datetime.strptime(start,'%Y-%m-%d') + timedelta(days=1)
end_dte:datetime=datetime.strptime(end, '%Y-%m-%d')
delta:timedelta=end_dte-strt_dte
for i,j,k in zip(
[(strt_dte+timedelta(days=i)).strftime('%Y-%m-%d') for i in range(delta.days+1)],
[(strt_dtep1+timedelta(days=i)).strftime('%Y-%m-%d') for i in range(delta.days+1)],
[i for i in range(delta.days+1)]):
request_definition: rd.delivery._data._endpoint_definition.Definition=rd.delivery.endpoint_request.Definition(
url=f"https://api.refinitiv.com/data/news/v1/headlines?query={company}+and+{source}+daterange:\{i},{j}\",
method=rd.delivery.endpoint_request.RequestMethod.GET)
response:rd.delivery._data._response.Response=request_definition.get_data()
if k==0:
req_def_lst:list[int]=[response.data.raw['meta']['count']]
else:
req_def_lst.append(response.data.raw['meta']['count'])
print(f"{i}to{j}:{response.data.raw['meta']['count']} article(s)")
print(req_def_lst)
