As of late 2025, the
openalex-snapshotfeatures two major subfolders:dataandlegacy-data.By default, the flatten script operates on
data. Yet, for keeping the legacy and for reproducibility, one might need to refer to legacy data.This modification of the flatten script allows the user, by changing the
isDataLegacyvariable, to drive the flattening script towards using thelegacy-datasubfolder (variable to be setTrue) or the defaultdatasubfolder (variable to setFalse).Second, I have included a new script that does the flattening in parallel: the seven
flatten_*()functions are executed in parallel thanks to themultiprocesslibrary.Lastly, the original serial flattening script had quite a lot of
print()to monitor progress, which have been substituted with nicertqdmprogress bars.
