ph-municipalities

ph-municipalities have npm scripts that allow interactive querying of Philippines municipalities included in one or more provinces or from a whole region, with an option of writing them to JSON files from the command line.

It uses /data/day1.xlsx (downloaded and stored as of this 20220808) from PAGASA's 10-day weather forecast excel files as the default data source.

It also asks users to key in the download URL of a remote excel file should they want to use another excel file for a new and updated data source.

Extracted municipalities are written in JSON files following the format:

{
    "metadata": {
        "source": "https://pubfiles.pagasa.dost.gov.ph/pagasaweb/files/climate/tendayweatheroutlook/day1.xlsx",
        "title": "List of PH Municipalities By Province and Region",
        "description": "This dataset generated with reference to the excel file contents from the source URL on 20220808.",
        "date_created": "Mon Aug 08 2022"
    },
    "data": {
        "Albay": ["Bacacay", "Camalig", ... ],
        "Camarines Norte": ["Basud", "Capalonga", ... ],
        "Camarines Sur": ["Baao", "Balatan", ... ],
         ...
    }
}
