Validation Manager

🚀

• Is your feature request essential for your project?

Describe the workflow you want to enable

Encapsulate the existing validation and cleaning of external data resources into a single library and CLI. The result of this project will be a single CLI tool that we can use to validate external resources, either manually or by integrating into an orchestration/workflow system such as Apache Airflow.

Describe your proposed implementation

• Write a command-line tool that verifies previously downloaded external data resources
• The tool ensures that the data is correct (format, data types, value domains, missing values, etc.), and either cleans the input data or responds with an error
• The tool should be well documented with a focus on code quality

Describe alternatives you've considered, if relevant

Suggestions welcome!
