Hi everyone! |
| 2 |
I hope all of you guys are having a lot of fun coding for this GSoC! |

I'm working on the "ebuild upstream scanner" (euscan), a software for |
| 5 |
checking outdated packages in gentoo portage, scannning the upstream for |
| 6 |
newer versions. |
| 7 |
My main task is to enhance the web interface of euscan (called |
| 8 |
euscanwww) but for this first days I started digging in the euscan code |
| 9 |
for learning how it works and adding some missing features. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Actually I started working on euscan in the last days of April, as you |
| 12 |
can see from the commit logs |
| 13 |
(https://github.com/iksaif/euscan/commits/master). |
| 14 |
I cleaned up a lot the codebase, made some small fixes, wrote tests for |
| 15 |
euscanwww and in this last days closed some issues. |
| 16 |
Here's a list of my accomplished tasks: |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
- Cleaned all the repo, removed unused imports and fixed all the |
| 19 |
codebase to be PEP8 compliant |
| 20 |
- updated documentation and the README |
| 21 |
- Moved almost all the logic from the Django views to Django managers |
| 22 |
and reduced duplicated code |
| 23 |
- changed all the code to use Django managers |
| 24 |
- Tests for almost all the code in euscanwww (Coverage: 84%) |
| 25 |
- Added validators to models |
| 26 |
- fixed a version detection bug |
| 27 |
- Added json output to euscan in order to be easily processable, outputs |
| 28 |
some more metadata for other purposes (like scan time or confidence of |
| 29 |
the result) |
| 30 |
- Added a progressbar in terminal while euscan is running |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
My next steps for this week are starting to include celery in euscanwww |
| 33 |
and offering the possibility to launch simple tasks. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
I'm really enjoying working for this project and my mentor Corentin is |
| 36 |
really friendly and skilled. |
