# The National Archives: Find Case Law
This repository is part of the [Find Case Law](https://caselaw.nationalarchives.gov.uk/) project at [The National Archives](https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/). For more information on the project, check [the documentation](https://github.com/nationalarchives/ds-find-caselaw-docs).
# Python Utilities
 
This repository predominantly contains information about [the courts in the Find Case Law project](courts.md).
pypi name: [ds-caselaw-utils](https://pypi.org/project/ds-caselaw-utils)
python import name: `ds_caselaw_utils`
## Examples
```
from ds_caselaw_utils import neutral_url
neutral_url("[2022] EAT 1") # '/eat/2022/4'
from ds_caselaw_utils import courts
courts.get_all() # return a list of all courts
courts.get_by_param("ewhc/ch") # get a court by its parameter value
courts.get_selectable() # returns a list of all courts that are whitelisted to
# appear as searchable options
courts.get_listable_groups() # returns a grouped list of courts that are whitelisted to
# be listed publicly
courts.get_listable_courts() # returns a list of all *courts* (ie not tribunals)
# which are whitelisted to be listed publicly
courts.get_listable_tribunals() # return a list of all *tribunals* which are
# whitelisted to be listed publicly
```
The list of courts is defined in `src/ds_caselaw_utils/data/court_names.yml`. The format is as follows:
```
- name: high_court # Internal name of a group of courts to be displayed together
display_name: "High Court" # An optional public facing name for this group.
is_tribunal: false # Whether this group contains courts or tribunals
courts: # List of courts to be displayed under this group
-
# An internal code for this court:
code: EWHC-SeniorCourtsCosts
# The public facing name of the court:
name: High Court (Senior Courts Costs Office)
# An optional alternative wording for use when displayed in grouped format (defaults to 'name'):
grouped_name: Senior Court Costs Office
# A URL to link to for more information on this court:
link: https://www.gov.uk/courts-tribunals/senior-courts-costs-office
# A regex matching neutral citations for this court's judgments:
ncn: \[(\d{4})\] (EWHC) (\d+) \((SCCO)\)
# The canonical parameter value used in searches for this court:
param: 'ewhc/scco'
# Any additional parameter aliases which display judgments from this court:
extra_params: ['ewhc/costs']
# The year of the first judgment we have on file for this court:
start_year: 2003
# The year of the last judgment we have on file for this court
# (optional, defaults to current year):
end_year: ~
# Whether to expose this court publicly as selectable in search filters:
selectable: true
# Whether to expose this court publicly in listings:
listable: true
```
## Testing
```bash
$ poetry shell
$ cd src/ds_caselaw_utils
$ python -m unittest
```
## Building
```bash
$ rm -rf dist
$ poetry build
$ python3 -m twine upload --repository testpypi dist/* --verbose
```
## Releasing
When making a new release, update the [changelog](CHANGELOG.md) in the release
pull request.
The package will **only** be released to PyPI if a new tag is created. A merge
to main alone will **not** trigger a release to PyPI.
If the release fails to push to PyPI, you can delete the tag with `git pull`, `git push --delete origin v1.2.3` and try again.
To create a release:
0. Update the version number in `pyproject.toml`
1. Create a branch `release/v{major}.{minor}.{patch}`
2. Update `CHANGELOG.md` and `pyproject.toml` for the release
3. Commit and push
4. Open a PR from that branch to main
5. Get approval on the PR
6. Tag the HEAD of the PR `v{major}.{minor}.{patch}` and push the tag
7. Merge the PR to main and push
8. Add a new release to Github for that tag for consistency's sake
