Convert Codemeta files to Jerico metadata

Jerico uses json files to record software metadata. This is similar to what Codemeta does. This repository contains a script that transforms a codemeta.json file into a jerico.json file.

  1. Open the script at ./R/codemeta2jerico.R
  2. Add the url of the new codemeta.json file to the list files

    codemeta2jerico/R/codemeta2jerico.R

    Line 48 in 4f94d87

    files <- list(
  3. Run the script using R $ R ./R/codemeta2jerico.R
  4. Resulting files are saved at ./output

Requirements

The software MUST HAVE a codemeta.json file. To create a codemeta.json file you may:

  • R: All R packages must have a DESCRIPTION file with information about the project. Use codemetar to generate codemeta.json
  • Python: All python extensions have a setup.py file. Use codemetapy codemetapy
  • Java: Software in Java MAY have a pom.xml file with information about the project. This file can be transformed into codemeta.json using codemetapy as $ codemetapy pom.xml. If this file is not available, it can be generated with maven
