ght2dm

ght2dm is a CLI tool for importing GHTorrent data into DevMine database.

Important notice: This is a specific tool for a specific need. It is not meant to be generic or used to serve any other purpose than filling DevMine database with GHTorrent dumps.

Installation

go get -u github.com/DevMine/ght2dm

Usage

IMPORTANT: Make sure to run the script db/create_tmp_table.sql before running ght2dm. The latter assumes that this table is created and empty. Make also sure to run the script db/insert_from_tmp_tables.sql after the execution of ght2dm. Note that these two scripts are only useful when importing repositories.

ght2dm usage is pretty simple: it only requires to pass a configuration file as argument:

ght2dm ght2dm.conf

Here is a configuration file example:

{
    "ghtorrent_folders": [
        "/path/to/bson/users",
        "/path/to/bson/org_members",
        "/path/to/bson/repos",
        "/path/to/bson/repo_collaborators"
    ],
    "devmine_database": {
        "host": "localhost",
        "port": 5432,
        "user": "postgres",
        "password": "postgres",
        "database": "devmine",
        "ssl_mode": "disable"
    }
}

The bson files must be organized as follow:

.
├── org_members
│   └── 2012-09-29.bson
├── repo_collaborators
│   └── 2012-09-29.bson
├── repos
│   └── 2012-09-29.bson
└── users
    └── 2012-09-29.bson

Where each folder must have the name of the corresponding GHTorrent entity. The currently supported entities are:

• users
• org_members
• repos
• repo_collaborators

Each bson dump must be named according to its creation date and using the format yyyy-mm-dd. Files that does not respect this convention are skipped.
