Quantifying the Commons

This project seeks to quantify the size and diversity of the commons–the collection of works that are openly licensed or in the public domain.

CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md:

The Creative Commons team is committed to fostering a welcoming community. This project and all other Creative Commons open source projects are governed by our Code of Conduct. Please report unacceptable behavior to conduct@creativecommons.org per our reporting guidelines.

See CONTRIBUTING.md.

Please note that in the directory tree below, all instances of fetch, process, and report are referring to the three phases of data gathering, processing, and report generation.

For information on learning and installing the prerequisite technologies for this project, please see Foundational technologies — Creative Commons Open Source.

This repository uses pipenv to manage the required Python modules:

1. Install pipenv:
   • Linux: Installing Pipenv
   • macOS:
     1. Install Homebrew
     2. Install pipenv:

        brew install pipenv

   • Windows: Installing Pipenv
2. Create the Python virtual environment and install prerequisites using pipenv:

   pipenv sync --dev

To successfully run scripts that require client credentials, you will need to follow these steps:

1. Copy the contents of the env.example file in the script’s directory to .env:

   cp env.example .env

2. Uncomment the variables in the .env file and assign values as needed. See sources.md on how to get credentials:

   GCS_DEVELOPER_KEY = your_api_key
   GCS_CX = your_pse_id
   

3. Save the changes to the .env file.
4. You should now be able to run scripts that require client credentials without any issues.

Static analysis tools ensure the codebase adheres to consistent formatting and style guidelines, enhancing readability and maintainability. Also see GitHub Actions, below.

Pre-commit allows for static analysis tools (black, flake8, isort, etc.) to be run manually or with every commit:

1. (Pre-commit is installed by completing Create the Python virtual environment and install prerequisites, above)
2. Install or run manually
   • Install the git hook scripts to enable automatic execution on every commit

     pipenv run pre-commit install

   • Run manually using helper dev script:

     ./dev/check.sh [FILE]

     If no file(s) are specified, then it runs against all files:

     ./dev/check.sh

3. (Optional) review the configuration file: .pre-commit-config.yaml

• Python Guidelines — Creative Commons Open Source
• Black: the uncompromising Python code formatter
• flake8: a python tool that glues together pep8, pyflakes, mccabe, and third-party plugins to check the style and quality of some python code.
• isort: A Python utility / library to sort imports
  • (It doesn’t import any libraries, it only sorts and formats them.)
• ppypa/pipenv: Python Development Workflow for Humans.
• pre-commit: A framework for managing and maintaining multi-language pre-commit hooks.
• Logging: Utilize the built-in Python logging module to implement a flexible logging system from a shared module.

The .github/workflows/python_static_analysis.yml GitHub Actions workflow performs static analysis (black, flake8, and isort) on committed changes. The workflow is triggered automatically when you push changes to the main branch or open a pull request.
