information about lobbyists about open-knesset HOT 8 CLOSED

the api that knesset have - only partial - they present only 50 records in the first page , and then they have at the end link to next page - I tried to open this page and it didn't worked not in soap message and not in get url in browser.

please contact the developer of knesset and see if this can be checked ...

Thanks

I had a discussion with @mayaktana about this issue - she wants to add data about lobbyists that does not come from the knesset. For example - photo of each lobbyist so they can recognize them in the committee meetings.
The problem with this data is that it's not official, so it needs to be treated as user uploaded data, like agendas or tags.

@michaelbogatin - yes, seems there is a bug in knesset apis.. but we can still use it by querying one lobbyist at a time incrementally

I'm done working on lobbyists at the moment

Currently, in PR #216 there is scraping of all the lobbyists data.

This is a good starting point for someone else to integrate it into the open knesset website. Possible sub-tasks:

• Search in protocol text for lobbyist names and connect the lobbyist objects to committees
• Add lobbyists tab and show all the lobbyists with a page for each lobbyist which can allow tagging, maybe adding picture / other data for each lobbyist etc..
