After adding the functionality of cd ing into workdir. I was able to give more time copyright extraction. Currently its under testing but I will try to get it done asap.
Some testing and getting the pr merged.
Got stuck with Shell script but managed to find a way around .
Hi everyone, Its been exciting 8 weeks my exams were scrapped this sem and I got a decent score :) . Also I am still working on go lang metadata extraction. Now the issue of cd'ing into the workdir is resolved and the PR will get merged soon :) . Now only issue left is collecting copyrights. If I can get it done by the next week it will be really great. I think thats all I have for this blog post.
Adios Amigos.
This week was mostly debugging the shell scripts for go metadata extraction.
I aim to complete the work by next week.
Tern is not picking up go command. and also I have to find a way to cd into wrokdir.
So this week I had my first evaluation. It went great also I received my stipend today so hurray.Extracting golang metadata with shell is frustrating not every go lang module have licenses or the copyright text in a set format. So writing a generic script is quiet challenging I researched on how go license works turns out they have a dedicated license parser as well as scripts which can request license from github. But we can't do that. This week was mostly debugging and restarting again. Now I am trying to work on go.sum file. Extracting names and versions is easy. So all the go modules live in ~/go/pkg/mod and then repo name. But we can't cd into module dir with its name because some does which have upper case letter in their name have different directory name. My exams are also nearing so I have to study for that too . :P
I mostly worked on golang module copyright extraction for tern reports. Also added tern html format to our CI.
Will work on extraction of licenses this week.
Some golang modules from official registry have license of type other than conventional licenses. So that's a problem i still need to figure out.
