This week of GSoC has all been about making models to store GitHub and GitLab data within a database to overcome two problems, viz;
- GitHub API Rate limiting
- Reducing latency for GitMate operations
We have a new project setup at igitt-django. It’s a django application to store and organise IGitt objects within a database.
This solves a lot of problems for future plugins like duplicate issue finding which involve fetching a lot of data in the responders.
I think I’m gonna end this one here, but trust me, the next one’s gonna be pretty big, a lot to share 👍🏻.
A small clue into the next one here.
Footnote
This week of my GSoC ran terribly slow 😔, owing to several factors like poor internet connectivity at college, registration and room allotment, etc. Hoping to get work done quick by the day.
