Clarification on Arelle UI Version

[Vinay Lingala]

Hi Team,

I’m working with Arelle and noticed a difference in the UI rendering. I have two screenshots — one showing the expected UI and the other showing what I’m currently getting. Could you please let me know which version of Arelle I should use to get the exact UI shown in the expected image?

Current setup:

• Arelle version: 2.37.33

• Edgar version: 3.25.2 (24.2.post1)

• Xule version: 30050

Thanks in advance for your help!

Best regards,
Vinay Lingala

Hi Vinay,

The expected screenshot matches the current version of the UI on sec.gov. The SEC is running the latest version of the EDGAR plugin 25.2.1.1.post2. The plugin releases on Arelle/EDGAR are published when the SEC updates, so if you want to stay up to date with the rendering on sec.gov you will need to make sure you're always running the latest release.

Kind regards,

Austin Matherne

Hi Austin,

I’ve tried changing the Arelle versions (2.37.33, 2.37.53, 2.37.55) along with the latest EDGAR plugin (25.2.1.1.post2), but the UI hasn’t changed at all. Is there any other factor we need to adjust that could be affecting this?

[Austin Matherne]

That's odd. Are you using Arelle from the command line or GUI?

[Vinay Lingala]

We’re using Arelle from the command line, integrated into our Python code through the arelle-release package, not through the GUI.
https://pypi.org/project/arelle-release/

Can you provide the full command that you're running from the command line and the message log it produces?

def run_edgar_validation(input_file, output_dir):
    base_plugin_dir = os.path.abspath("static/plugins")
    # All required plugin paths (in order)
    plugin_paths = [
        os.path.join(base_plugin_dir, "EDGAR"),
        os.path.join(base_plugin_dir, "EDGAR", "transform"),
        os.path.join(base_plugin_dir, "EDGAR", "validate"),
        os.path.join(base_plugin_dir, "xule"),
    ]

    # Join plugin paths with pipe |
    pluginsPath = "|".join(plugin_paths)

    # Arelle command to run EDGAR validation
    command = [
        "arelleCmdLine",
        "-f",
        input_file,
        "--disclosureSystem",
        "efm",
        "--plugins",
        pluginsPath,
        "--reportFormat",
        "HtmlAndXml",
        "-r",
        output_dir,
    ]

    # Run the command
    try:
        subprocess.run(command, check=True)
    except subprocess.CalledProcessError as e:
        print(f"Error running Arelle: {e}")



this is the code block to run arelle command with plugin configs: 
        [arelleCmdLine -f input_file --disclosureSystem efm --plugins pluginsPath --reportFormat HtmlAndXml -r output_dir]

I don't see anything obviously wrong with the Arelle command. What version of the viewer is shown under the menu?

[Vinay Lingala]

I guess this might be the issue, it says Version :  24.2 (Legacy)

Yes, that would do it. How are you serving the viewer files? Do you have a web server still using older versions of the javascript?
