Extending the scancode API #95

Open singh1114 opened 7 years ago

singh1114 commented 7 years ago

For now, the API of the scancode-server is pretty simple. Whenever the user opens up the app and applies the scan, he gets to the resulting phase and can see the results in the serialized form.

On the other hand, the API should be such in which we can give URL as an input and we would be able to get the results in the form of serialized output. But this is hard to implement because of the computation time associated with the scans.

For now, our API can only take scan_id as input and give the output in as JSON.

@singh1114 any views as to how should i proceed?

singh1114 commented 6 years ago

@chetanya-shrimali I believe that some of the code is already implemented. What you need to do is proceed further. I think for the URL's part. Git URLs were handled. We need to check other cases as well.
