A few new features and improvements to inspect4py #356

Closed lazyhope closed 2 years ago

lazyhope commented 2 years ago

In this PR a few new features are added, including:

A new input parameter -sc —-source_code to generate source code of each ast node
A new input parameter -ast —abstract_syntax_tree to generate ast for each function in json format
A new input parameter -ld --license_detection to detect the most likely license of the target repository
Extracts type annotations when inspecting functions or methods

There are also some improvements to inspect4py, including:

Changing the call list structure so that calls within functions, body and classes are in separate fields
Use recursive approach to extract ast nodes, modified methods for inspecting class/function definitions and body calls, so that they can detect calls under clauses like while, if, for, etc.

@zl81, thanks, this looks like great progress for inspect4py. I need a few days for reviewing the PR. I will produce a review then

No problem!

looks ok to me. I have to pass the tests locally (I have not set up the actions yet)

@dgarijo I have left one test unpassed intentionally, this unpassed test shows an open issue of our current implementation treating class instantialization calls the same as regular function calls, right now we don't have a good way to distinguish between the two.

dgarijo commented 2 years ago

Ok. Can you please open an issue? It's easier to track open problems this way.

Sure, I will open it tomorrow as it's late in my current time zone.
