Add some metadata for each entry

Question

Add some metadata for each entry

Flet opened this issue 9 years ago · 6 comments

I was thinking of building a little script to pull the repositories tagline and maybe contributor(s)/homepage and adds them to the json. This would make it a bit more convenient to use for generating a web-friendly view.

Would you be opposed to having some additional metadata for each entry, @feross?

Not opposed. 👍

Let me commit the scraping script I used (#2) since it should be easy to add the description in there.

@Flet The script is committed now. If you want to modify it to include descriptions, feel free.

Thanks! What does test.json represent? I don't see it generated, and it seems to be just a subset of standard.json.. Is this just the target set of repos to use for standard tests?

test.json is just the list of repos that used to be in clone.js. It's not
generated. I don't think it's necessary to add descriptions and other info
to test.json.
