Description

Having to find the base URL manually is unnecessarily cumbersome and creates an entry barrier for new users. EmlGet should be able to automatically determine the base URL or directly determine alll relevant download URLs by only being served the URL of the election results, e.g., https://data.overheid.nl/dataset/verkiezingsuitslag-provinciale-staten-2023.

Alternatively, search functionality that finds the relevant election files based on user-provided search terms would further improve usability.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by reading EmlGet's command-line entry point and current URL-handling flow, then compare the proposed base-URL detection with search-based discovery; done means the example election-results URL can lead to the relevant download URLs without manual base-URL lookup.
