This repository contains the source code for the COVID-19 India data archive website at https://indiacovid19.github.io/. The website can also be reached using the short link https://git.io/indiacovid19.

The data page at the above URL is generated from the following JSON file: indiacovid19.json.

This JSON file contains a list of list entries. Each inner list entry is a septuple (7-tuple) consisting of 7 values. Here is an example entry:

["2020-03-25", 553, 43, 10, "2020-03-25 18:45",
 "https://web.archive.org/web/20200325192939/https://www.mohfw.gov.in/", ""]

Here is a description of these 7 values in the order they appear in each septuple:

1. Date (in "YYYY-MM-DD" format as per Indian Standard Time)
2. Number of active cases
3. Number of cured cases
4. Number of death cases
5. Date and time at which the data was collected/published by the source of the data (in "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM" format as per Indian Standard Time)
6. Reference archive link of the source of the data as supporting evidence
7. Any additional comment or note about the entry

To contribute to this repository, please update indiacovid19.json and send a pull request.

The 7th value in each septuple occurring in indiacovid19.json is a reference archive link. These links point to reliable archives (snapshots) of either https://pib.gov.in/ (PIB) or https://www.mohfw.gov.in/ (MoHFW) for the corresponding date. These are the official sources of COVID-19 case numbers for India.

The date and time for each entry specified as the 6th value in each entry is picked directly from the content of the archived snapshot.

The intention of this project is to ensure that every piece of data in indiacovid19.json can be justified with evidence archived in the archive URLs.
