BCR2Mongo

What is this?

A simple script that reads the data from the CPD dataset and, for a given variable name, creates video-tagged HTML str that is dumped to a given mongodb collection.

How to use

The script needs a running instance of mongoDB and the relative environment variables need to be set.

Setup

• create and activate a virtual environment by following this
• install the requirements in requirements.txt
• create a .env file in the root directory of the repo and add the following variables (needed):
  • MONGO_URI=<uri>
  • DB_NAME=<db_name>
  • COLLECTION_NAME=<coll_name>

Additionally, ENV and COLLECTION_NAME-DEV to keep development environments isolated.

N.B.: The environment variables are needed by the script to write the HTML string to the DB, that will be read by COVIDashIT:

Run

Once the .env has been prepared, in a shell with an active virtual environment

(venv)$ python bcr2mongo.py --var <variable-name-as-per-DPC-dataset>

Expected Output

If all goes down well, the output of, e.g.

(venv)$ python bcr2mongo.py --var totale_positivi

will be
