Annexes

Overview

Annexes are supplementary parts of EU legislation, often containing technical specifications, lists, or tables that are referenced within the articles. Each annex belongs to one framework and is identified by its annex number (or letter, e.g. "I", "II", "A").

Methods

`list()`

Returns a page of annex summaries for a framework.

page = client.annexes.list("cra", page=1, per_page=20)

print(f"CRA has {page.meta.total} annexes")
for annex in page.data:
    print(f"  Annex {annex.annex_number}: {annex.title}")

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
`framework_slug`	`str`	required	Framework slug, e.g. `"cra"`
`page`	`int`	`1`	Page number
`per_page`	`int`	`20`	Items per page (1–100)

Returns Page[AnnexSummary]

`get()`

Fetch the full content of a single annex.

annex = client.annexes.get("cra", "I")

print(annex.title)
print(annex.content)

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`framework_slug`	`str`	Framework slug
`annex_number`	`str`	Annex identifier, e.g. `"I"`, `"II"`, `"A"`

Returns Annex

`iter()`

Iterate over all annexes in a framework.

for annex in client.annexes.iter("cra"):
    print(f"Annex {annex.annex_number}: {annex.title}")

Parameters — same kwargs as list() (except page). Returns Iterator[AnnexSummary]

Models

`AnnexSummary`

Returned by list() and iter().

Field	Type	Description
`id`	`int`	Internal numeric ID
`framework_slug`	`str`	Parent framework slug
`annex_number`	`str`	Annex identifier, e.g. `"I"`
`title`	`str \| None`	Annex heading
`position`	`int`	Ordering position within the framework
`section_count`	`int`	Number of sections within this annex

`Annex`

Returned by get(). Extends AnnexSummary with:

Field	Type	Description
`content`	`str \| None`	Full plain-text content of the annex
`sections`	`list[AnnexSection]`	Structured sections, if parsed

`AnnexSection`

Field	Type	Description
`id`	`int`	Internal numeric ID
`section_number`	`str`	Section label, e.g. `"1"`, `"1.1"`
`content`	`str`	Section text
`position`	`int`	Ordering position within the annex

Examples

List all CRA annexes

from law4devs import Law4DevsClient

client = Law4DevsClient()

for annex in client.annexes.iter("cra"):
    print(f"Annex {annex.annex_number}: {annex.title or '(untitled)'} ({annex.section_count} sections)")

Read the full content of an annex

annex = client.annexes.get("cra", "I")

print(f"=== {annex.title} ===\n")
if annex.sections:
    for section in annex.sections:
        print(f"\n{section.section_number}. {section.content}")
else:
    print(annex.content)

Check which frameworks have annexes

for fw in client.frameworks.iter():
    detail = client.frameworks.get(fw.slug)
    if detail.annex_count > 0:
        print(f"{fw.short_name}: {detail.annex_count} annexes")

Collect all annex content for a framework

all_content = []
for annex in client.annexes.iter("gdpr"):
    full = client.annexes.get("gdpr", annex.annex_number)
    all_content.append({
        "annex": annex.annex_number,
        "title": annex.title,
        "content": full.content,
    })

print(f"Fetched {len(all_content)} GDPR annexes")

Annex numbers follow the official EU publication format. Roman numerals ("I", "II") are most common, but some frameworks use letters or Arabic numerals.
