Project description

catalogmx

Comprehensive Mexican Data Validators and Official Catalogs Library

A complete multi-language library (Python 3.10+ | TypeScript 5.0+) for validating Mexican identifiers and accessing official catalogs from SAT, Banxico, INEGI, SEPOMEX, and other government agencies.

Python Version PyPI Version NPM Version Coverage Tests License

Languages: English | Español


Overview

catalogmx provides production-ready tools for Mexican data validation and official catalog access:

  • 4 Validators: RFC, CURP, CLABE, NSS with complete algorithms
  • 58 Official Catalogs: SAT (CFDI 4.0, Comercio Exterior, Carta Porte, Nómina), INEGI, SEPOMEX, Banxico, IFT, Mexico National
  • 170,505+ Records: Complete databases including 157K postal codes, 2.4K municipalities, 10K+ localities with GPS
  • Economic Indicators: Salarios Mínimos, UMA, UDI with historical data (2010-2025)
  • Traffic Regulations: Hoy No Circula CDMX with hologram exemptions and contingency rules
  • SQLite Hybrid Architecture: 22-59% size reduction for large catalogs with FTS5 full-text search
  • Multi-language Support: Python and TypeScript with identical APIs
  • Type-Safe: Full type hints (PEP 604) and TypeScript declarations
  • Production Ready: Comprehensive test coverage (1,147 tests: 926 Python + 221 TypeScript = 93.78% coverage), fully documented, and actively maintained

Quick Start

Python

# Using pip
pip install catalogmx

# Using uv (10-100x faster)
uv pip install catalogmx
from catalogmx.validators import rfc, curp
from catalogmx.catalogs.sepomex import CodigosPostales
from catalogmx.catalogs.inegi import LocalidadesCatalog

# Validate and generate RFC
is_valid = rfc.validate_rfc("XAXX010101000")
rfc_code = rfc.generate_rfc_persona_fisica(
    nombre="Juan",
    apellido_paterno="Pérez", 
    apellido_materno="López",
    fecha_nacimiento="1990-01-15"
)  # Returns: "PELJ900115XXX"

# Generate and validate CURP
curp_code = curp.generate_curp(
    nombre="Juan",
    apellido_paterno="Pérez",
    apellido_materno="García", 
    fecha_nacimiento="1990-05-15",
    sexo="H",
    estado="Jalisco"
)  # Returns: "PEGJ900515HJCRRN09"

# Search postal codes
postal_codes = CodigosPostales.get_by_cp("06700")
print(postal_codes[0]['asentamiento'])  # "Roma Norte"

# Geographic search with GPS coordinates
localities = LocalidadesCatalog.get_by_coordinates(
    lat=19.4326, lon=-99.1332, radio_km=10
)

TypeScript

Test Coverage (TypeScript)

Metric Coverage Status
Functional Tests 220/220 passing 100%
Code Statements 59.83% ⚠️ Below 80% threshold
Branches 37.48% ⚠️ Below 80% threshold
Lines 61.56% ⚠️ Below 80% threshold
Functions 45.69% ⚠️ Below 80% threshold

All functional tests pass. Lower code coverage is due to many catalog methods and validators not yet having exhaustive test cases. Core functionality is fully tested.

Usage Examples

Address Validation

from catalogmx.catalogs.sepomex import CodigosPostales
from catalogmx.catalogs.inegi import MunicipiosCatalog

def validate_address(postal_code, municipality_name):
    """Validate Mexican address"""
    
    if not CodigosPostales.is_valid(postal_code):
        return False, "Invalid postal code"
    
    cp_info = CodigosPostales.get_by_cp(postal_code)[0]
    
    if municipality_name.lower() not in cp_info['municipio'].lower():
        return False, f"Postal code {postal_code} does not belong to {municipality_name}"
    
    return True, cp_info

Geographic Analysis

from catalogmx.catalogs.inegi import LocalidadesCatalog

# Find localities near a coordinate
nearby = LocalidadesCatalog.get_by_coordinates(
    lat=19.4326,      # Mexico City
    lon=-99.1332,
    radio_km=50
)

for locality in nearby[:5]:
    print(f"{locality['nom_localidad']}: {locality['distancia_km']} km")
    print(f"  Population: {locality['poblacion_total']:,}")

CFDI Validation

from catalogmx.validators import rfc
from catalogmx.catalogs.sat.cfdi_4 import (
    RegimenFiscalCatalog,
    UsoCFDICatalog,
    FormaPagoCatalog
)

def validate_cfdi_data(rfc_code, tax_regime, cfdi_use, payment_method):
    """Validate CFDI invoice data"""
    
    errors = []
    
    if not rfc.validate_rfc(rfc_code):
        errors.append("Invalid RFC")
    
    if not RegimenFiscalCatalog.is_valid(tax_regime):
        errors.append(f"Invalid tax regime: {tax_regime}")
    
    if not UsoCFDICatalog.is_valid(cfdi_use):
        errors.append(f"Invalid CFDI use: {cfdi_use}")
    
    if not FormaPagoCatalog.is_valid(payment_method):
        errors.append(f"Invalid payment method: {payment_method}")
    
    return len(errors) == 0, errors

Full Roadmap: See docs/roadmap.md for detailed roadmap by catalog and implementation strategy.


SQLite Hybrid Architecture

For catalogs with >10,000 records, we provide SQLite hybrid implementation with automatic backend selection:

Benefits (Proven Results):

  • 22-59% smaller file size (measured on production catalogs)
  • 10-100x faster queries with indexed lookups
  • FTS5 full-text search with Spanish text tokenization
  • Memory efficient: Query without loading entire dataset into memory
  • Automatic selection: Falls back to JSON if SQLite unavailable

Current Implementation (v0.3.0):

Catalog JSON Size SQLite Size Size Reduction Features
Clave Prod/Serv 18 MB 13.4 MB 26% FTS5 Spanish search
INEGI Localities 4.9 MB 2.0 MB 59% GPS coordinates indexed

Technical Details:

  • better-sqlite3 for Node.js (native performance)
  • sql.js for WebAssembly browser support (planned)
  • FTS5 tokenization with Spanish stop words
  • Lazy loading with static caching
  • Seamless fallback to JSON for compatibility
