Ground truth production

We use Maven Dependency Plugin version 3.4.0.

Format of this directory

1. maven-dependency-tree directory:

   1. Dockerfile to list how to run the ground truth.
   2. dot-to-json.py is used for translate the dot format into JSON format.

2. generateGroundTruth.sh: Each script iterates over .env file and runs all the ground truth for it.

Process

1. For each project, Maven Dependency Plugin is executed with the goal tree. This process is performed in a docker container in order to ensure reproducibility. The Dockerfile used can be found in maven-dependency-tree/Dockerfile.

2. The output of the Maven Dependency Plugin is in the .dot format, which is translated into JSON by the maven-dependency-tree/dot-to-json.py script.

3. The resulting JSON files are stored in the results-march-2023/<study-subject>/maven-dependency-tree directory.

Example
