cnsipo fetches data from SIPO of China.

Please take the following steps(step 1-5 are essential, others are optional):

1. get all patent ids for each year(1985-2014) of each kind (kind: 1-发明公布 2-发明授权 3-实用新型 4-外观设计)

    python cnsipo/patent_list.py -k{kind} {year} -i {input_dir} -o {output_dir}
   

   output:

    {input_dir}/{kind}-{year}.html (cached for later use)
    {output_dir}/{year}/{page_index}
   

2. merge id files(result of step 1) for each year

    bin/merge.sh output_dir path_to_year_dir/{year}
   

   output:

    {output_dir}/{year}
   

3. fetch patents' details from the id files(result of step 2) of each kind (detail_kind: 1-详细信息 2-事务数据)

    python cnsipo/patent_detail.py -k{kind} -K{detail_kind} {year} -i {input_dir} -o {output_dir}
   

   output:

    {output_dir}/{year}
   

4. create a table on a (Postgres) database(d: detail, t: transaction)

    bin/initdb.sh -d{database} -u{db_user} -t{db_table} d|t
   

   output:

    a table in database
   

5. import data into database

    python cnsipo/patent_db.py -d{database} -u{db_user} -p{password} -t{db_table} -i {input_dir} -K{detail_kind} {year}
   

   output:

    data in database
   

6. create an auxiliary table on a (Postgres) database

    bin/initdb.sh -d{database} -u{db_user} -t{db_table} a
   

   output:

    a table in database
   

7. collect auxiliary data into database

    python cnsipo/patent_aux_db.py -d{database} -u{db_user} -p{password} -t{patent_table} -a{aux_table} {year}
   

   output:

    data in database
   

8. create a UIG(university/industry/government) table on a (Postgres) database

    bin/initdb.sh -d{database} -u{db_user} -t{db_table} u
   

   output:

    a table in database
   

9. collect UIG data into database

    python cnsipo/patent_uig_db.py -d{database} -u{db_user} -p{password} -i{uig_table} -t{patent_table} -a{aux_table} {year}
   

   output:

    data in database
   

10. print UIG nodes for each year

    python cnsipo/patent_report.py -d{database} -u{db_user} -p{password} -i{uig_table} -a{aux_table} {year} -o {output_dir}
    

    output:

    {output_dir}/node{year}
