| 1 | +# FederatedCode Curation Integration - Implementation Summary |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +## Overview |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +This implementation adds comprehensive FederatedCode integration to ScanCode.io, enabling collaborative sharing of origin curations across multiple instances and with the broader open-source community. The system supports exporting, importing, conflict resolution, and full provenance tracking. |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +## What Was Implemented |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +### 1. Data Models (scanpipe/models_curation.py) |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +Four new models for managing federated curations: |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +- **CurationSource**: Tracks external sources of curations |
| 14 | + - Supports multiple source types (Git, API, manual import) |
| 15 | + - Priority system for conflict resolution |
| 16 | + - Auto-sync capabilities |
| 17 | + - Sync statistics tracking |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +- **CurationProvenance**: Full audit trail for curations |
| 20 | + - Tracks all actions (created, amended, verified, imported, merged, propagated) |
| 21 | + - Records actor name/email, dates, previous/new values |
| 22 | + - Links to curation sources |
| 23 | + - Supports metadata and notes |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +- **CurationConflict**: Manages import conflicts |
| 26 | + - Multiple conflict types (type mismatch, identifier mismatch, etc.) |
| 27 | + - Various resolution strategies (manual, keep existing, use imported, highest confidence, highest priority) |
| 28 | + - Tracks resolution status and outcome |
| 29 | + - Links existing and imported origins |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +- **CurationExport**: Records export operations |
| 32 | + - Tracks export destinations, formats, statistics |
| 33 | + - Records Git commit SHAs for FederatedCode exports |
| 34 | + - Error tracking and metadata |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +### 2. Curation Schema (scanpipe/curation_schema.py) |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +Standardized exchange format using Python dataclasses: |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +- **OriginData**: Core origin information (type, identifier, confidence, method) |
| 41 | +- **ProvenanceRecord**: Individual provenance entries |
| 42 | +- **FileCuration**: File-level curation with origins and provenance |
| 43 | +- **CurationPackage**: Complete shareable package with metadata |
| 44 | +- **validate_curation_package()**: Schema validation function |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +Schema supports: |
| 47 | +- JSON and YAML serialization |
| 48 | +- Full provenance chains |
| 49 | +- License and copyright information |
| 50 | +- Verification and propagation metadata |
| 51 | +- Version 1.0.0 with extensibility |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +### 3. Export/Import Utilities (scanpipe/curation_utils.py) |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +Comprehensive utilities for curation management: |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +**Export Functions:** |

| 60 | +- `export_curations_to_federatedcode()`: Publishes to Git repository |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | +**Import Functions:** |
| 63 | +- `import_curation_package()`: Imports CurationPackage into project |
| 64 | +- `import_curations_from_url()`: Fetches and imports from URL/Git |
| 65 | +- `_import_single_file_curation()`: Processes individual file curation |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +**Conflict Resolution:** |
| 68 | +- `_resolve_curation_conflict()`: Applies resolution strategy |
| 69 | +- `_create_conflict_record()`: Records conflicts for manual review |

| 73 | +- `get_local_curation_source()`: Gets/creates local source |
| 74 | +- `origin_determination_to_origin_data()`: Converts models to schema |
| 75 | +- `origin_determination_to_file_curation()`: Full conversion with provenance |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +### 4. Pipelines (scanpipe/pipelines/curation_federatedcode.py) |
| 78 | + |

| 230 | +### Data Flow |
| 231 | + |
| 232 | +``` |
| 233 | +Export Flow: |
| 234 | +Project → CodeOriginDetermination → CurationPackage → JSON/YAML → Git/File |
| 235 | +
|
| 236 | +Import Flow: |
| 237 | +URL/Git → JSON/YAML → CurationPackage → Validation → Resource Matching → |
| 238 | + Conflict Detection → Resolution → CodeOriginDetermination → CurationProvenance |
| 239 | +``` |
| 240 | + |
| 241 | +## Usage Examples |
