PyDriller

PyDriller is a Python framework that helps developers in analyzing Git repositories. With PyDriller you can easily extract information about commits, developers, modified files, diffs, and source code.

Install

pip install pydriller

Quick usage


from pydriller import Repository

for commit in Repository('https://github.com/ishepard/pydriller').traverse_commits():
    print(commit.hash)
    print(commit.msg)
    print(commit.author.name)

    for file in commit.modified_files:
        print(file.filename, ' has changed')

Read the docs for more usage examples. Furthermore, a video is available on Youtube.

How to contribute

Pre-requisites

Testing

(Important) I tend to not accept Pull Requests without tests, so:

Run the test suite with pytest:

pytest

Run the test suite with a coverage report as terminal output:

pytest --cov-report term --cov=pydriller tests/

alternatively run:

make testcoverage

Type checking

PyDriller source code is annotated for type checking, see syntax. The mypy type checker is executed on each pull request. That is, code that does not type check will not pass that build step, see CI step. Run the type checker locally:

mypy --ignore-missing-imports pydriller/ tests/

alternatively run:

make typecheck

Linting

PyDriller relies on the Flake8 linter to check and enforce code style. The linter is executed on each pull request. That is, code that does not conform to code style rules as formulated by Flake8, will not pass that build step, see CI step. Run the type checker locally:

flake8

alternatively run:

make lint

CodeQL

PyDriller's CI chain executes a set of CodeQL queries related to Python quality and security. Currently, a local CodeQL setup is quite big (>1.7GB) and require multiple setup and configuration steps. Therefore, it is omitted here and in the Makefile.
