Introduction

This folder contains utility/helper scripts to best leverage the purl2cpe project.

SQLite Loader

The sqlite_loader.py is a Python script that loads the data folder into an SQLite database.

The script will build a database file called purl2cpe.db (by default) inside which it will create a table called purl2cpe. It will then iterate through all files inside the data folder and insert in the purl2cpe table all PURL|CPE pairs.

Requirements

Python 3.7 or higher.

The dependencies can be found in the requirements.txt file.

To install dependencies, run:

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Usage

To run the SQLite Loader, please call it from the CLI using:

python3 sqlite_loader.py --help

To process the data folder in its entirety, please use the following command:

python3 sqlite_loader.py ../data

Or to get a sub-set, just specify a specific vendor folder:

python3 sqlite_loader.py ../data/pivotal

To write the results to a different SQLite file use:

python3 sqlite_loader.py ../data/pivotal -o custom-sqlite.db

To run in quiet mode, simply add --quiet.

SQLite Consumption

To query the database, load it using:

sqlite3 purl2cpe.db

To query data within, please use:

select cpe from purl2cpe where purl = 'pkg:github/aerospike/aerospike-server';
