A simple Python script for matching Australian company names to political donations and government contractors.

usage: company-check.py [-h] [--donors DONORS] [--contractors CONTRACTORS]
[--register REGISTER] [--threshold THRESHOLD]
input output
Assuming you have a donors file in the appropriate format (see below), the following will match company names in the first column of the input CSV with companies in the donors register and store the result in output.csv.
You should be able to run this example straight from the cloned repo.
./company-check.py input.csv output.csv --donors donors.json
You need Python, with a bunch of requirements installed.
pip install -r requirements.txt
