Analysis of Citation File Format files on GitHub.

This is an SSI Collaborations Workshop 2022 hack day project 😍.

Introduction

The Citation File Format enables you to provide the citation metadata for your software in easy-to-read YAML files. There are now several thousand CITATION.cff files on GitHub alone.

This project looks at how these files are actually used:

  • Are they used correctly (i.e., do they conform to the format specifications)?
  • Which versions of the format are used?
  • What context are they used in, with what programming languages, licenses, etc.?

Usage

A dataset with some thousand links to repositories containing CITATION.cff files are in data/cff_repositories.csv.

Some of the analyses are run in R, some in Python.
