The FAIR Checker at https://fair-checker.france-bioinformatique.fr/ seems brilliant - type in the URL of a repo and it quickly assesses it in a quantitative way for FAIR principle aspects. I am now looking at what information from those is best to pull out as valuable metrics, and how to extract it.
API is here: https://fair-checker.france-bioinformatique.fr/swagger
It is probably best if we grab the '/api/check/metrics_all' which finds 'Evaluates all FAIR metrics at once', to get everything since all of those metrics are quite important and FAIR is now very well-established.
It would be great to include FAIRness information (RE the FAIR principles) about individual repos in our consideration of the health of a piece of software, so towards that I will explore how to grab metrics on FAIRness that we can aim to incorporate.
