--- ** [tickets:#6531] Project metadata importer for github** **Status:** code-review **Labels:** github import 42cc **Created:** Wed Aug 07, 2013 09:15 PM UTC by Dave Brondsema **Last Updated:** Thu Aug 22, 2013 03:10 PM UTC **Owner:** nobody Create an importer that given a github repo name imports the basic information using the github API, into Allura. See ForgeImporter's entry points and the `GoogleCodeProjectImporter` and `TracProjectImporter` classes as similar examples. Github doesn't have a lot of metadata. `description` can go into the "summary" field. homepage can be set. The programming language could be mapped to a programming language trove in Allura. But determining all those mappings (by hand or with some algorithm) is going to be too much work, and not worth it I think. --- Sent from sourceforge.net because allura-dev@incubator.apache.org is subscribed to https://sourceforge.net/p/allura/tickets/ To unsubscribe from further messages, a project admin can change settings at https://sourceforge.net/p/allura/admin/tickets/options.
