Module created to make available a quick way to update all the aviation related information from wikipedia.

Using the package aviation-scraper to download all the information regarding airports, airlines and their destinations from wikipedia exposes the following files:

• airline_destinations.json (an object where the key is the airline url and an array of destination airport urls)
• airlines.json (an array with all the airlines data)
• airport_airlines.json (an object with all the airports including the airlines that fly to this airport grouped into an array)
• airport_cities.json (an object where the key is the primary key of the airport that includes the name and the url of the city it belongs to.)
• airport_runways.json (an object with the runways for each airport.)
• airports.json (an object with all the airports and their data)
• city_airports.json (an object that includes all the airports into one city.)

install via npm:

npm install aviation-json --save

var aviationJson = require("aviation-json");
// then you will have available all the information.

var airlineDestinations = aviationJson.airline_destinations;
var airlines = aviationJson.airlines;
var airportAirlines = aviationJson.airport_airlines;
var airportsCities = aviationJson.airport_cities;
var airportRunways = aviationJson.airport_runways;
var airports = aviationJson.airports;
var cityAirports = aviationJson.city_airports;

Go to the node_modules/aviation-json directory and run 'make sync'

This is going to take a while and depending on your internet connection you may have troubles, after the 5 time trying to reach the wikipedia page to scrape the information, it will throw and err.

All the code is properly tested. To run the test:

# this command lint all the files and runs the tests.
make test

if you want to be in watch mode:

# this command run the test in watch mode.
make dev
