algo for assigning investigators to location

installations: First to install mongoDB

wget -qO - https://www.mongodb.org/static/pgp/server-5.0.asc | sudo apt-key add -

echo "deb http://repo.mongodb.org/apt/debian buster/mongodb-org/5.0 main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-5.0.list

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install -y mongodb-org

For more details about mongoDB installation refer https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-debian/ (since I used debian based OS)

Next install pymongo (I did that using pip which was not installed in my machine so I have added steps for that as well)

sudo apt-get install pip

sudo apt-get pip install --upgrade pip

sudo apt update

sudo apt install python3-pip

pip3 --version (to check version)

pip 22.0.2 from /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pip (python 3.9) (Versions I am using, including python version)

pip3 install pymongo

Before running the code change the user_id and password for mongoDB. Also, create apikey.txt file with Google Maps API key.

To run the python file in CLI:

python3 canvasser.py "String-Address" "String-name of Language"
