Morningstar Fixed Income Classification System Map (MFICS)

This library just aims to enable lookups in the reference table of Morningstar as published on their website in an easy way by building a Node module containing a JSON map and some methods to explore it.

Dataset Indexing

In order to enable keyword-based searches on the MFICS dataset, we use a reverse index stored in /data/data-index.json. The index is generated by tokenizing relevant properties on MFICS classifications and storing them in an index object keyed by the tokenized text. The index relates keywords to scores that represent the likelihood that a specific keyword is related to a MFICS classification.

In order to rebuild the index run the following command from the project directory:

$ ./bin/build-index.js
