Please help me install and set up "Sienna" from veered.org on my own computer or server.

What it is: Information disclosure statement generator. It runs on: Any computer with Python — Windows, Mac or Linux.
Project page: https://veered.org/ids-generator/
Source code download (zip): https://veered.org/ids-generator/sienna-ids-generator.zip

How I'd like you to help:
1. First ask me what you need to know: my operating system and version, my desktop environment if it matters, whether I'm comfortable with the terminal, and any accounts or hardware this project needs.
2. Then take me through it one step at a time. For each command, say briefly what it does, and wait for me to paste back the result before moving on.
3. Before any step that changes system settings, uses sudo, or edits an existing configuration file, tell me, and have me make a backup first.
4. If something fails, help me work out why. If the instructions below don't fit my system, say so rather than guessing.
5. At the end, show me how to check that it works, and how to uninstall it.

The project is shared as-is by its author, with no warranty. If we find a problem in the project itself, please help me write a short, clear note I can send to support@veered.org.

# Information Disclosure Statement Generator (Sienna)

*Why Sienna? The earth red of ink on an old docket card.*

**Runs on** any computer with Python — Windows, Mac or Linux.

**Version 1.0.**

Part of [Veered](https://veered.org): free tools, shared as-is. Questions: support@veered.org

Hand it the patent numbers you need to disclose and it writes the Information
Disclosure Statement for you: it looks each reference up, finds the dates and the
first named inventor, sorts them into the four tables the Patent Office expects,
numbers them straight through, and saves a Word document you can check, sign and file.

![The list it found, and the document it wrote](docs/screenshot.jpg)

*It prints what it found for each reference as it goes, and tells you which ones it
could not find.*

![The document it writes: the header block and the four tables, numbered straight through](docs/output.jpg)

*The Word document it saves. Open it, check it, add your signature, file it.*

> **Not legal advice, and not a substitute for reading the references.** This is a
> typing tool. Check every line against the document itself before you file anything,
> and check the rules in force when you file (37 CFR 1.97 and 1.98). Nothing is sent
> to the Patent Office by this program.

## What it does

- **You give it numbers**, in whatever shape they come in: `10000000`, `US 9,876,543 B2`,
  `2015/0123456`, `EP1234567A1`, or the name of a journal article.
- **It sorts them out.** US patents, US published applications, foreign documents and
  other literature each go to their own table, in number order, numbered 1, 2, 3... in
  one run across all four.
- **It fills in the dates and the inventor** from the published record for each patent,
  and says so plainly when it cannot find one, so nothing is quietly left blank.
- **It writes a Word document** — headings, the applicant block, the tables and the
  certification paragraph — that you finish in Word and file as usual.
- **It can read a folder** of prior-art PDFs and take the numbers from the file names,
  which is how they usually arrive.
- **It never files anything** and never touches the Patent Office.

## How you use it

One line, with the numbers:

```bash
python3 ids_gen.py --out IDS.docx --applicant "Smith Manufacturing LLC" \
    --app-no "19/801,543" --docket "SMI001" \
    10000000 US9876543B2 2015/0123456 EP1234567A1
```

Or from the folder the prior art already lives in:

```bash
python3 ids_gen.py --from-folder "Prior Art" --out IDS.docx --csv references.csv
```

It prints a line per reference as it goes, writes the document, and ends by naming
anything it could not look up so you can fill those in yourself.

## Information for nerds: options, lookups and tests

| Option | What it does |
| --- | --- |
| `numbers...` | References on the command line, in any of the shapes above |
| `--from-file FILE` | One reference per line; `#` starts a comment |
| `--from-folder DIR` | Take the numbers from the names of the PDFs in a folder |
| `-o, --out FILE` | The Word file to write (default `IDS.docx`) |
| `--csv FILE` | Also write what was found as a spreadsheet |
| `--applicant`, `--app-no`, `--filed`, `--title`, `--docket` | Fill in the header block |
| `--examiner`, `--art-unit` | Default to `N/A`, which is right for an application that has not been examined |
| `--attorney` | Name under the signature line |
| `--no-lookup` | Stay offline and list the numbers exactly as given |

**Where the data comes from.** Each patent's own published record on Google Patents,
read from the page's metadata: filing date (`DC.date scheme=dateSubmitted`), issue or
publication date, and the first named inventor. A granted patent carries its issue date
with `scheme="issue"`; a publication has a plain `DC.date` instead, and the program
knows the difference. There is a short pause between lookups, to be a polite visitor.
Anything it cannot find is listed at the end rather than left silently empty.

**Duplicates** are dropped: the same number given twice, or a number that also turns up
in the folder, is listed once.

**Requirements:** Python 3.9 or newer and `python-docx`
(`pip install python-docx`, or `sudo apt install python3-docx`).

**Tests:**

```bash
python3 -m unittest discover -s tests -v
```

They cover the classifying, the number shapes, the folder reading and the document
itself, and never go online.

Download https://veered.org/ids-generator/sienna-ids-generator.zip, unzip it into a new folder, read every README.md in it, and help me install and set up "Sienna" (Information disclosure statement generator) on this machine. Check the requirements against this system first and tell me what is missing. Ask me before running anything with sudo, installing packages, or changing existing configuration files, and back those files up first. Finish by showing me how to test it and how to uninstall it.
