Context: Software Heritage is an ambitious initiative whose goal is to collect, preserve forever, and make publicly available the entire body of software, in the preferred form for making modifications to it.
Description: The current archive search engine accepts a single list of tokens that are searched either in across origin URLs or extracted metadata. The goal of this internship is to design and implement an archive query language that allows to mix terms, boolean connectors, and operators (as other search engines do). Part of this internship is language design, part language parsing, and part language evaluation (by linking together query results returned by the already existing search backends for the archive).
Desirable skills to obtain this internship:
- Python development
Will be considered a plus:
- experience with data mining and/or information retrieval and/or web searches
Workplace: on site at Inria Paris (contact mentors for remote opportunities)
Environment: you will work shoulder to shoulder with all members of the Software Heritage team, and you will have a chance to witness from within the construction of the great library of source code.
Internship mentors:
- Antoine Lambert
- Valentin Lorentz
- Stefano Zacchiroli <zack@upsilon.cc>
