#Open-Source-Catalog

##About

This GitHub repository is maintained by the NASA OCIO Open Innovation Team and contains a catalog of publically available NASA open source projects that are published on [code.nasa.gov] (http://code.nasa.gov). The catalog is persisted as a JSON file catalog.json and contains an array of projects. As Code Sharing at NASA is a community effort, we encourage NASA developers to add a meta-record in to this catalog to publish their open source projects on code.nasa.gov.

##Requirements

  • Open Source software project approved for open source release by your NASA Field Center SRA
  • Code Project hosted in a code repository (preferably GitHub.com) and visible to Internet Users
  • Meta record of your software project; instantiate required_fields_project_template.json

Add your project

  • Create a project meta-record using the template from file required_fields_project_template.json:
{
	"NASA Center": "Ames Research Center",
    "Contributors": [
      "jasonduley"
    ],
    "Software": "My Software Project",
    "External Link": "https://github.com/nasa/my-software-project/wiki",
    "Public Code Repo": "https://github.com/nasa/my-software-project",
    "Description": "This is a description of the software project.",
    "License": [
      "NASA Open Source"
    ],
    "Categories": [
      "Framework",
      "Toolkit",
      "Web"
    ],
    "Update_Date": "2014-09-23"
}
  • Add your instatiated meta-record to the array in the catalog.json file via a pull request
  • Once the merge is complete, your project will be published on code.nasa.gov

##Thanks Special thanks goes out to Chris Mattmann (NASA JPL), Sean Kelly (NASA JPL) and Eric Whyne (DARPA) for their inspiration for this effort.
