Geojson Data Indexing

[dhruv-1001]

Description

This issue tracks progress on indexing of boundary locations. Once you setup the server, PARSED_MASTER_LOCATION_NAMES.json file gets added to /server/geojson-data directory. This files contains all of the administrative boundaries of India, from state level down to village level as such State -> District -> Sub-District -> Village. Create a script, that uses this file, and then generates a JSON which indexes on what all data do we have available of state, district, sub-district & village. On top of that, design an API that read & returns from this generated JSON based on user query.

Implementation Details

1. Define the feature

• Task: Design the indexing script & APIs
• Details: Explain on how the indexing script would be working, and what will be the structure for API.
• Approval: This needs to be reviewed and approved before proceeding with implementation.

2. Implementing the limiter

• Task: Implementation of the script & APIs
• Details: Script should be automatically be able to pickup new geojson-data files added, and create the index json accordingly. APIs should be optimised to return response with low latency. This index will be displayed on front-end application as an expandable tree, so implement the API accordingly.
• Dependence: This step is contingent upon the approval of this feature

Expected Outcomes

• Having a check, that ensures that no client tries to intentionally stress the server.

@ChakshuGautam @dhruv-1001 I encountered a issue can you please help me out with it. I think the PARSED_MASTER_LOCATION_NAMES.json is not available there. Screenshot :

@swastik-akhil A alternative right now would be running it on github codespace. Also would suggest to run this repo under linux environment

[swastik-akhil]

While running it in codespaces I encountered another issue. Below is the image. It keeps happening again and again. I have also a stable and fast internet connection then also this is happening.

Try running it on gitpod

I guess the issue is with the code.
