IRS527

This is a very basic Ruby library that parses the full text file containing all records from Section 527 Political Organizations as filed with the Internal Revenue Service.

Literally all it does it accept a path to the full file (which contains multiple types of records), reads it and creates four separate text pipe-delimited text files, one for each of:

1. Registrations (8871.txt)
2. Filings (8872.txt)
3. Receipts (skeda.txt)
4. Expenditures (skedb.txt)

Other files could be created based on additional record types.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'irs527'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install irs527

Usage

First, download the full data file from the IRS, and unzip it. Then pass the path to the text file like so:

require 'irs527'
Irs527::TextParser.parse("PATH/TO/FullDataFile.txt")
