Documentation to support upcoming data platform API and data sets

CFPB Public Data API

This is the source project for the CFPB public data API at http://api.consumerfinance.gov.

Create a config file

cp sample_config.edn config.edn

Edit that file with appropriate values, including MongoDB connection information.

Loading data

To load the HMDA dataset, run lein repl and enter the following:

(-main "config.edn") ;; use the name of your config file. config.edn is an example
(require 'qu.loader)
(in-ns 'qu.loader)
(load-dataset "hmda")

Then close your REPL, using Ctrl-D.

This does start the web server, so you may want to use a different configuration that starts it on an unpublished port.
