Feature: json validity checking tool #21

Closed rickyegeland closed 11 months ago

rickyegeland commented 11 months ago

We need a simple command-line tool that model developers can use to check that their forecast jsons are in a valid format that is usable by SPHINX. This tool should ease the burden of validation challenge organizers having to deal with a bunch of buggy json submissions.

Propose to develop it as a command line script within sphinxval. At present, sphinxval has no standard deployment method (like pip), so the instructions will be to clone the sphinxval repository and access the json validator directly.

Propose the script name check_forecast_json.py. Avoiding the term "validate" in this context on purpose.

Added in #37. Closing.
