Abstract

Techniques and structures to facilitate classification of source code files is disclosed. The techniques include receiving a plurality of source code files; and classifying each of the plurality of source code files, including analyzing source code details of a source code file and assigning one or more classifier tags to the source code file based on the source code details of the source code file, wherein each classifier tag is associated with one of a plurality of programming teams.

Claims (36)

1. A method to facilitate classification of source code files, comprising:

a processor receiving a plurality of source code files;

the processor classifying each of the plurality of source code files, including:

analyzing source code details of a source code file, including analyzing history details of the source code file to determine one or more programmers that have contributed to programming of the file; and

assigning one or more classifier tags to the source code file based on the source code details of the source code file, wherein each classifier tag comprises an identifier that indicates one of a plurality of programming teams to which the source code file is associated; and

the processor storing the plurality of source code files in a database.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein analyzing source code details of a source code file further comprises analyzing a configuration file associated with source code file to determine a programming team associated with the source code file.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the configuration file is generated by a programmer of the programming team associated with the source code file.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein analyzing source code details of the source code file further comprises determining a team associated with each of the one or more programmers that have contributed to programming of the file.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a selection of one or more filters via a user interface (UI), wherein each of the one or more filters is associated with one of the plurality of programming teams; and

searching the stored plurality of source code files using the one or more filters.

6. The method of claim 5 , further comprising associating the one or more filters with source code files having classifier tags that match the one or more filters.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein each classifier tag comprises a source code attribute used to filter search results.

8. The method of claim 7 , further comprising selecting the associated source code files as search results.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising displaying the search results.

10. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, are configurable to cause the one or more processors to:

receive a plurality of source code files; and

classify each of the plurality of source code files, including:

analyzing source code details of a source code file;

assigning one or more classifier tags to the source code file based on the source code details of the source code file, wherein each classifier tag comprises an identifier that indicates one of a plurality of programming teams to which the source code file is associated; and

store the plurality of source code files in a database.

11. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein analyzing source code details of a source code file comprises analyzing a configuration file associated with source code file to determine a programming team associated with the source code file.

12. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein analyzing source code details of a source code file comprises analyzing history details of the source code file to determine one or more programmers that have contributed to programming of the file.

13. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 12 , wherein analyzing source code details of the source code file further comprises determining a team associated with each of the one or more programmers that have contributed to programming of the file.

14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10 , having stored thereon instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, are configurable to further cause the one or more processors to:

receive a selection of one or more filters via a user interface (UI), wherein each of the one or more filters is associated with one of the plurality of programming teams; and

search the stored plurality of source code files using the one or more filters.

15. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 14 , further comprising associating the one or more filters with source code files having classifier tags that match the one or more filters.

16. A computing device comprising:

at least one physical memory device to store code classification logic; and

one or more processors coupled with the at least one physical memory device, the one or more processors configurable to execute the code classification logic to receive a plurality of source code files, classify each of the plurality of source code files, including analyzing source code details of a source code file and assigning one or more classifier tags to the source code file based on the source code details of the source code file, wherein each classifier tag comprises an identifier that indicates one of a plurality of programming teams to which the source code file is associated.

17. The computing device of claim 16 , wherein analyzing source code details of a source code file comprises analyzing a configuration file associated with source code file to determine a programming team associated with the source code file.

18. The computing device of claim 17 , wherein analyzing source code details of a source code file comprises analyzing history details of the source code file to determine one or more programmers that have contributed to programming of the file.

19. The computing device of claim 18 , wherein analyzing source code details of the source code file further comprises determining a team associated with each of the one or more programmers that have contributed to programming of the file.

20. The computing device of claim 16 , wherein the one or more processors further receive a selection of one or more filters via a user interface (UI) and search the stored plurality of source code files using the one or more filters, wherein each of the one or more filters is associated with one of the plurality of programming teams.
