Synopsis
This is an extended description of the "Lintian reports frontend". It is a project for Google Summer of Code 2012.
This document is intended for prospective students as a source of inspiration. It is not a complete description nor a complete specification. Feel free to suggest new ideas or propose modifications to existing ones in your application. Please also note that, not every idea listed here (or in a link from here) is necessarily "pre-approved".
Inspiration for part 2: Harness frontend
Should you work on this project, you may want to consider looking at the mails/bugs/documented listed here. It is quite possible you will work on some of the ideas listed in these.
<20110823123639.5BD6F3D03@thykier.net>
Please note, some of the musts listed in this document are not as important as they were originally proposed. Examples include the HTTP(S) fetch feature.
- The current frontend partly supports the above, but could use some importments.
- Current reporting framework in Lintian. Look for the scripts "reporting/harness", "reporting/html_reports", the templates in "reporting/templates" and also the modules used by the scripts (in lib/).
The Lintian source code can be found here.
Ubuntu has some changes in their repository on github. Commits like this may be useful for other derivatives as well.
- Note: There are possibly a lot of "uninteresting" commits in that repository, so git knowledge is advised.
