The rootfcc package provides the data structures necessary for parsing theamateur-relevant portion of the FCC license database that is provided as a1GB+ csv file.
cmd/fcc2bolt is a console application that reads the zipfile of the FCC dump,parses it, and inserts active amateur licenses into a boltDB store.
cmd/fccdb is a console application for doing name and address lookups ofFCC-issued amateur callsigns.
Thefcc package can be used as-is. To download and ingest the FCC database,this software requirescurl,make, and thego toolchain.
make help provides all options in the Makefile.
make will build thecmd binaries, download the FCC dataset, and performthe boltdb ingestion.
sudo make install will copyfccdb andfccd to/usr/local/bin/ and thefcc.dbdatabase to/usr/share/fccdb.
fccd listens on port 8080, and picks up a non-default DB location from the FCCDBenvironment variable.
Lookups against thefccd API can be made in the format:/license/<FCC CALLSIGN>
From the console:curl http://localhost:8080/license/kj6cbe
The expected result:
{ "Name": "Lehtonen, Lars A", "Address": "1727 Glendale Blvd", "City": "Los Angeles", "State": "CA", "ZIP": "90026" }
