#!/usr/bin/env python3 """Discover gov.pl subsites + their news-section paths and write a committed manifest (govpl_subsites.json) that fetch_govpl.py consumes. gov.pl offers no sitemap or API for enumeration, and news-section slugs are non-uniform: ministries use `/aktualnosci`, but voivodeship/agency subsites use `/wiadomosci2`, `/aktualnosci10`, `/wszystkie-aktualnosci`, etc. (gov.pl appends numeric suffixes to disambiguate repeated slugs). So discovery is a separate, auditable step — freeze the JS-rendered subsite list, then probe each landing page for its deepest-paginating news section. fetch_govpl.py then reads the manifest with plain stdlib (no browser), keeping the fetch reproducible. SEED_SLUGS was captured from the rendered catalog at https://www.gov.pl/web/gov/katalog-jednostek on 2026-07-18 (a client-side list, NOT fetchable over plain HTTP). To refresh, open that page in a browser console and run: [...new Set([...document.querySelectorAll('a[href*="/web/"]')] .map(a => (a.getAttribute('href').match(/\\/web\\/([a-z0-9-]+)/i)||[])[1]) .filter(Boolean))].filter(s => s !== 'gov') then paste the array into SEED_SLUGS below.
