Inspect4py: a knowledge extraction framework for python code repositories

Filgueira, Rosa, Garijo, Daniel·2022·Proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Mining Software Repositories

Abstract

This work presents inspect4py, a static code analysis framework designed to automatically extract the main features, metadata and documentation of Python code repositories. Given an input folder with code, inspect4py uses abstract syntax trees and state of the art tools to find all functions, classes, tests, documentation, call graphs, module dependencies and control flows within all code files in that repository. Using these findings, inspect4py infers different ways of invoking a software component. We have evaluated our framework on 95 annotated repositories, obtaining promising results for software type classification (over 95% F1-score). With inspect4py, we aim to ease the understandability and adoption of software repositories by other researchers and developers.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
