Debugging the Transit Providers CSV file

The automated process to fetch providers from the data warehouse consists of two parts. The first part is downloading the data as a CSV file from the warehouse. The second part is preparing the data with some Python.

# Download the data
bash .github/resources/download_csv.sh

# (Optional) Don't pollute your global Python install
virtualenv .github/resources/venv
source .github/resources/venv/bin/activate

# Install Python dependencies
pip install -r .github/resources/requirements.txt

# Run the Python script with all the preparing logic
python .github/resources/process_providers.py
