RepoMiner

Build Status Code Climate Test Coverage Code Climate license

RepoMiner is a ruby library designed to mine time sensitive information from git repositories. Things like:

  • When dependencies are added/updated/removed
  • When license information changes
  • Changes in frequency of commits over time
  • Changes in timezones of commits over time

This is a new and incomplete project that's under active development.

I'll be live streaming some of the development of this project on twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/andrew_nesbitt

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'repo_miner'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install repo_miner

Usage

Make a new repository:

repository = RepoMiner::Repository.new('/path/to/git/repo')

Analyse all commits for a given branch:

commits = repository.analyse('master')

See mined dependency data for a given commit:

commits.length #=> 34

commits.last #=> <RepoMiner::Commit:0x007fd87fdf1150(message: "Fixes 1597", sha: c656e48ada19c6c83f7705893f0a73cfc1844abf, data: {:email=>{:committer=>"[email protected]", :author=>"[email protected]"}, :dependencies=>{:added_manifests=>[], :modified_manifests=>[{:path=>"Gemfile", :platform=>"rubygems", :added_dependencies=>[], :modified_dependencies=>[], :removed_dependencies=>[{:name=>"sass", :requirement=>"= 3.4.24", :type=>:runtime}]}, {:path=>"Gemfile.lock", :platform=>"rubygems", :added_dependencies=>[{:name=>"sass-listen", :requirement=>"4.0.0", :type=>"runtime"}], :modified_dependencies=>[{:name=>"commonmarker", :requirement=>"0.16.8", :type=>"runtime", :previous_requirement=>"0.16.7"}, {:name=>"gitlab", :requirement=>"4.2.0", :type=>"runtime", :previous_requirement=>"4.1.0"}, {:name=>"rack-cors", :requirement=>"1.0.0", :type=>"runtime", :previous_requirement=>"0.4.1"}, {:name=>"sass", :requirement=>"3.5.1", :type=>"runtime", :previous_requirement=>"3.4.24"}, {:name=>"sassc", :requirement=>"1.11.4", :type=>"runtime", :previous_requirement=>"1.11.2"}], :removed_dependencies=>[]}], :removed_manifests=>[]}})>

You can also skip commits that you've already analysed:

commits = repository.analyse('master', '00e7221')
commits.length # => 9

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
