🛠️Getting set up

Steps to install CSAPP and start the web app

Step1: Clone the CSAPP repository

git clone https://github.com/adamcysec/CSAPP.git

Step 2: Install the dependencies

pip install streamlit duckdb csapptools beautifulsoup4 requests argparse

Step 3: Download the full PyPI data set

https://drive.google.com/file/d/176E-5gb97egmRe8W9K-bh2YqHPn1W0PE/view?usp=sharing

• Due to the file size being about 160 MB, I have to host the file on Google Drive.

• Store the data set CSV file in the CSAPP directory.

Step 4: Update the data set

pypi_data_harvest.py requires an API key from libraries.io

1. Create an account on libraries.io

2. Create a hidden directory in your user's home folder called .librariesio

3. Saved libraries.io api key in a txt file called api_key.txt

py pypi_data_harvest.py --update "pypi_info_db.csv"

• New PyPI packages are uploaded every day, therefore you will want to update the data set before use.

Step 5: Run the web app locally

streamlit run pypi_streamlit.py

if you have more than one version of python installed you may need to run streamlit like so:

python3 -m streamlit run pypi_streamlit.py

• You will want to run the app locally to use the full data set.
