Bharat Address Validator (CLI)

CLI to validate CSV or GeoJSON against the Bharat Address schema (JSON Schema draft 2020-12) and run basic QC rules.

Quickstart

python -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

python validate.py data/sample.geojson --schema specs/address-register.schema.json --schema-target collection
python check_qc.py data/sample.geojson

Usage notes

• The authoritative schema lives in BharatAddress/specs; this repo includes a synced copy for CI examples.
• The validator supports three targets via --schema-target: collection, feature, or properties.
• QC checks are intentionally small and can be extended for local rules.

Repo layout

• validate.py: schema validation entrypoint.
• check_qc.py: basic QC checks.
• specs/: synced schema copy for tests.

Who should use this

• Data teams validating pilot datasets.
• Tool builders integrating schema checks.
