Ultimate Debian Database

Ultimate Debian Database (UDD) gathers a lot of data about various aspects of Debian in the same SQL database. It allows users to easily access and combine all these data.

The data currently being imported include:

• Packages and Sources files, from Debian and Ubuntu
• Bugs from the Debian BTS
• Popularity contest
• History of uploads
• History of migrations to testing
• Lintian
• Orphaned packages
• Carnivore
• Debtags
• Ubuntu bugs (from Launchpad)

More data sources can easily be added (and will be in the near future).

• To connect to udd.debian.org:

  • From merkel.debian.org or alioth.debian.org: /usr/lib/postgresql/8.3/bin/psql 'service=udd'

  • Same with python-psycopg2: conn = psycopg2.connect(host="localhost",port=5441,user="guest",database="udd")

• Examples of queries: http://udd.debian.org

• Database schema: http://udd.debian.org/schema/

• Source code: available in the SVN of the collab-qa project at http://svn.debian.org/viewsvn/collab-qa/udd/

• Database server: runs on postgres with plperl and postgresql-debversion

For more information, please contact us on #debian-qa or debian-qa@lists.debian.org (mailing list subscription and archives).

UDD started as a Google Summer of Code project by Christian von Essen (Neronus), co-mentored by Lucas Nussbaum, Stefano Zacchiroli and Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt. It is now mainly maintained by Lucas Nussbaum, with help from others.
