title PLDB: a Programming Language Database import code/ciBadges.scroll PLDB is a public domain database and website containing over 135,000 facts about over 4,000 programming languages. This repo contains the entire database, code, and website for https://pldb.io. ## To analyze the data The PLDB database is freely available: - As CSV: https://pldb.io/pldb.csv - As JSON: https://pldb.io/pldb.json - The JSON file is also available via npm: javascriptCode // npm install pldb console.log(require("pldb").javascript.appeared) Documentation for the CSV is available here: https://pldb.io/csv.html. ## To add a new language Easy method: https://pldb.io/create.html Advanced method: Create a new file in `concepts` with a unique URL friendly filename ending in `.pldb` and send a pull request. ## To update a language Easy method: https://pldb.io/ Advanced method: Edit the corresponding `concepts/*.pldb` file and send a pull request. ## To add a new measure Advanced method: Edit or create a new file in `measures/` and add at least 1 measurement to a concept in `concepts` and send a pull request. ## To run the site locally code git clone https://github.com/breck7/pldb cd pldb # Required to run this during first install only. npm i -g cloc # Required to run this on fresh checkout and when upgrading from an old checkout or periodically when there are new releases npm install . # Run tests npm run test # Start the dev server npm run local # Or to rum the local site statically npm run static # After you make changes and before you commit make sure to run: npm run format ## To explore this repo The most important folder is `concepts`, which contains a file for each entity. The folder `measures` contains the grammar files (schema) for the database. The website content is in the `site` folder. The `code` folder contains importer scripts and other code for the database and site. You can see the `cloc` language stats on this repo at https://pldb.io/pages/about.html. ## To use as an npm package: code npm install pldb javascriptCode console.log(require("pldb").javascript.appeared) ## To cite PLDB PLDB content is published to the public domain and you can use it freely.
