Simple script to find articles from ArXiv based on a set of keywords and categories
Just make sure to install all the requirements from requirements.txt by using
python -r requirements.txt
Tested using python 3.9+
Use the input.yaml file to input the categories and keywords to search.
To run the file
python ArXivFetcher.py -inp=input.yaml -f='Articles'
where an the name of the yaml input file and the name used for the outputfiles is given. It creates a .bibfile and and .xlsxfile with all files found.
To see all the possible arguments use
python ArXivFetcher.py --help
It can be usefull to run the script automatically at the startup of the computer. The simplest way to do it in linux systems is by using cron. For this specific case the crontab file must be edited:
$ crontab -e
To run the script at startup this line must be added:
@reboot python /path/to/ArXivFetcher.py -i your_input_file.yaml -f 'Your_File_Name'
