So far this is a tool built and developed out of expediency (translation: why is x broken?). So far it validates the things that have needed to be validated.

Example

import (
       "github.com/whosonfirst/go-whosonfirst-validate"
)

func main() {

     r, _ := os.Open("/path/to/feature.geojson")

     body, _ := validate.EnsureValidGeoJSON(r)
     
     validate_opts := default.ValidateOptions()
     validate.ValidateWithOptions(body, opts)

Error handling omitted for the sake of brevity.

Tools

wof-validate

This tool will attempt to load all the (principal) WOF documents (using go-whosonfirst-geojson-v2) passed to it using a go-whosonfirst-iterate iterator.

$> ./bin/wof-validate -h
Validate the contents of one or more whosonfirst/go-whosonfirst-iterate/v2 data sources.
Usage:
	 ./bin/wof-validate path(N) path(N)
Valid arguments are:
  -all
    	Enable all validation checks.
  -edtf
    	Validate edtf: properties. (default true)
  -is-current
    	Validate mz:is_current property.
  -iterator-uri string
    	A valid whosonfirst/go-whosonfirst-iterate/v2 URI (default "repo://")
  -name
    	Validate wof:name property. (default true)
  -names
    	Validate WOF/RFC 5646 names.
  -placetype
    	Validate wof:placetype property. (default true)
  -repo
    	Validate wof:repo property. (default true)
  -verbose
    	Be chatty about what's happening.

For example:

$> ./bin/wof-validate /usr/local/data/whosonfirst-data
...time passes

Assuming everything loads successfully you won't see any output (unless you've passed the -verbose flag (in which case you'll see a lot of output)).

Or this:

$> ./bin/wof-validate -names /usr/local/data/whosonfirst-data
error: Failed to parse name tag for /usr/local/data/whosonfirst-data/data/112/585/728/5/1125857285.geojson, because Failed to parse language tag 'eng_v_variant'
