Open projects in high-energy and nuclear physics research software

There are two main components of this repository:

  • project_metadata.yml that defines the set of fields that describe a project and known values for each field
  • a directory of projects: one yml per project

Both of these can be updated via a pull request to this repository

project_metadata

  • Has a set of attributes, and possible values for each attribute.
  • You might find that the set of possible values does not meet your needs. If not, add a new value and make a pull request.
  • You might find that you would like a new attribute. If so, please open an issue for discussion in this repository.

Adding a new project

  • Clone this repository so that you can make a pull request against it
  • Copy projects/template.yml.txt to a new file named for your project
  • Replace each field with either a descriptive entry for your project (its title, description) or by one of the values from the project_metadata.yml file (for entries where there is a multiple choice of options)
  • Make a pull request against this repository to include your new project

Changing the status of your project

  • Projects can be changed/removed by their owner via pull request at any time. We encourage projects that have been filled or are no longer relevant to be updated accordingly.
