Open-Source-Catalog

Build Status

About

This GitHub repository is maintained by the NASA OCIO Open Innovation Team and contains a catalog of publicly available NASA open source projects that are published on code.nasa.gov. The catalog is persisted as a JSON file catalog.json and contains an array of projects. As Code Sharing at NASA is a community effort, we encourage NASA developers to add a meta-record in to this catalog to publish their open source projects on code.nasa.gov.

Requirements

  • Open Source software project approved for open source release by your NASA Field Center SRA
  • Code Project hosted in a code repository (preferably GitHub.com) and visible to Internet Users
  • Meta record of your software project; instantiate required_fields_project_template.json

Add/Edit your project

OPTION 1

If you are behind the NASA firewall, we recommend you use the online form located here

We recommend option 1.

OPTION 2

Create a project meta-record using the template from file required_fields_project_template.json:

  • Note that Category labels longer than 24 characters will be truncated.
{

    "Contributors": [

    "Update_Date": "2014-09-23",

}
  • Add your instantiated meta-record to the array in the catalog.json file via a pull request
  • Once the merge is complete, your project will be published on code.nasa.gov

Thanks

Special thanks goes out to Chris Mattmann (NASA JPL), Sean Kelly (NASA JPL) and Eric Whyne (DARPA) for their inspiration for this effort.
