Discussions

  • Reviewed this week’s progress and shared my updates.
  • Jan relayed feedback from the Osselot contributors on my reuse changes:
    1. Add an “ℹ️” tooltip explaining the Enable Osselot export button’s function.
    2. Toggling Enable Osselot export should automatically enable the SPDX license comments checkbox.
    3. Explore support for importing multiple reports from Osselot in one operation.
  • Demonstrated the Osselot-reuse functionality to Oliver Fendt—received positive feedback.

Updates

  • Migrated version-lookup from GitHub to the Osselot REST API for greater reliability and reduced external dependencies.
  • Continued using the GitHub API to fetch and persist SPDX reports.
  • Installed Fossology in a dual-boot environment as i got permission issues in my mac instance while using Report Import agent.
  • Jan is presenting my PRs to the Osselot maintainers; I’m on standby to incorporate their input.
  • Looked into Python’s multiprocessing module to plan future parallelization within the Scancode agent.

Plan for Next Week

  1. Implement the Report Import agent enhancements to support Osselot-based reuse.
  2. Apply the contributor feedback: add tooltip, auto-enable license comments, and investigate batch imports.
  3. Learn more about how i can add multithreading in the Scancode agent to improve scan throughput.
