error saving files

I installed the API and run the next couple of code lines. I got an error when I wanted to save the filing.

from secedgar.filings import FilingType, Filing
from datetime import datetime

filing = Filing(cik_lookup='aapl',
                filing_type=FilingType.FILING_10K,
                start_date=datetime(2015, 1, 1),
                end_date=datetime(2019, 1, 1))

filing.save('./reports')

The following error is rising when I run the last command:

`--------------------------------------------------------------------------- RuntimeError Traceback (most recent call last) <ipython-input-9-ae9d2e927b58> in <module> ----> 1 filing.save(‘FFS’)

@esvhd I just merged a PR into master that adds tqdm as a requirement, so that should be fixed now. Working on finalizing v0.3.3 release so that we can release that.

Can you try running the code without nest_asyncio? We are trying to determine if a fresh install will let you run the code without any issues or if it is a bug.

Hi @jackmoody11 - I just tried WITHOUT importing nest_asyncio in my newly created environment, after saving to ./edgar as @reteps suggested, the download worked as expected.

FYI - Interestingly, in my old base conda environment, without nest_asyncio, with ./edgar it still did not work…

Looks like it was related to save().
