Catalog of Open Source Software from NASA. Built using Polymer.

Instructions for releasing a NASA open-source project can be found on https://code.nasa.gov/#/guide.

Newly approved code projects for release are added to code.json. You can add your approved open-source NASA project to code.json, here.

All federal agencies are mandated to have a code.json that is then harvested by the General Services Adminstration (GSA) and aggregated into code.gov.

Code.json is reformatted by a script run by NASA's open-innovation team into category.json. Category.json has some attributes not in code.json and is used to build the project page on code.nasa.gov.

Additionally, at this time, only category.json has the A.I.-generated keyword tags in addition to the human-generated tags. This may change in the future.

Some of the code projects in code.json have open-source licenses. Other projects in code.json have government-source only licenses, meaning sharing is constrainted to government agencies. All of the code projects listed in category.json have open-source licenses.

If you make your own visualization, please add it as an issue. We would love to see it!

test

Install bower and polymer-cli:

npm install -g bower polymer-cli

Check that you are using Node v8+

node -v

bower i

This command serves the app at http://localhost:8080 and provides basic URL routing for the app:

polymer serve --open

This command performs HTML, CSS, and JS minification on the application dependencies and generates a service-worker.js file with code to pre-cache the dependencies based on the entrypoint and fragments specified in polymer.json. The minified files are output to the build/unbundled folder, and are suitable for serving from a HTTP/2+Push compatible server.

In addition the command also creates a fallback build/bundled folder, generated using fragment bundling, suitable for serving from non H2/push-compatible servers or to clients that do not support H2/Push.

polymer build

This command serves the minified version of the app at http://localhost:8080 in an unbundled state, as it would be served by a push-compatible server:

polymer serve build/unbundled

This command serves the minified version of the app at http://localhost:8080 generated using fragment bundling:

polymer serve build/bundled

When deploying to a static web server (with no HTTP/2+Push), be sure to copy only the files from build/bundled directory (NOT the project directory) which contains a functional service worker and minified files. Put them in a top level part of the directory, not within another build/bundled directory within the production directory.

You can extend the app by adding more views that will be demand-loaded e.g. based on the route, or to progressively render non-critical sections of the application. Each new demand-loaded fragment should be added to the list of fragments in the included polymer.json file. This will ensure those components and their dependencies are added to the list of pre-cached components (and will have bundles created in the fallback bundled build).
