UPMEX - Universal Package Metadata Extractor

Extract metadata and license information from various package formats with a single tool.

Features

Core Capabilities

• Universal Package Support: Extract metadata from 13 package ecosystems
• Multi-Format Detection: Automatic package type identification
• Standardized Output: Consistent JSON structure across all formats
• Native Extraction: No dependency on external package managers
• High Performance: Process packages up to 500MB in under 10 seconds

Advanced Features

• NO-ASSERTION Handling: Clear indication for unavailable data
• Dependency Mapping: Full dependency tree with version constraints
• Author Parsing: Intelligent name/email extraction and normalization
• Copyright Holder Integration: Automatically adds copyright holders to authors list
• Repository Detection: Automatic VCS URL extraction
• Platform Support: Architecture and OS requirement detection
• Package URL (PURL): Generate standard Package URLs for all packages
• File Hashing: SHA-1, MD5, and fuzzy hash (TLSH) for package files
• JSON Organization: Structured output with package, metadata, people, licensing, copyright sections
• Data Provenance: Track source of each data field for attestation

Supported Ecosystems

• Python: wheel (.whl), sdist (.tar.gz, .zip)
• NPM/Node.js: .tgz, .tar.gz packages
• Java/Maven: .jar, .war, .ear with POM support
• Gradle: build.gradle, build.gradle.kts files
• CocoaPods: .podspec, .podspec.json files
• Conda: .conda (zip), .tar.bz2 packages
• Perl/CPAN: .tar.gz, .zip with META.json/yml
• Conan C/C++: conanfile.py, conanfile.txt, .tgz packages
• Ruby Gems: .gem packages
• Rust Crates: .crate packages
• Go Modules: .zip archives, go.mod files
• NuGet/.NET: .nupkg packages
• Linux: (Planned) Debian .deb, RPM .rpm

Advanced License & Copyright Detection

• Powered by OSLiLI: Integration with oslili for accurate license and copyright detection
• Multi-Method Detection:
  • Tag-based detection for short license identifiers (MIT, Apache-2.0, etc.)
  • SPDX-License-Identifier exact matching
  • Fuzzy hash (TLSH) matching against normalized license texts
  • Regex-based pattern matching with comprehensive SPDX support
  • Confidence scoring (0.0-1.0) with detection method tracking
• Copyright Extraction: Automatic extraction of copyright statements from source files

API Integrations

• ClearlyDefined: License and compliance data enrichment
• Ecosyste.ms: Package registry metadata and dependencies
• Maven Central: Parent POM resolution and inheritance
• Offline-First: All features work without internet connectivity

Installation

# Install from source
git clone https://github.com/oscarvalenzuelab/semantic-copycat-upmex.git
cd semantic-copycat-upmex
pip install -e .

# Install with all features (includes oslili for license detection)
pip install -e ".[all]"

# Install for development
pip install -e ".[dev]"

Quick Start

from upmex import PackageExtractor

# Create extractor
extractor = PackageExtractor()

# Extract metadata from a package
metadata = extractor.extract("path/to/package.whl")

# Access metadata
print(f"Package: {metadata.name} v{metadata.version}")
print(f"Type: {metadata.package_type.value}")
print(f"License: {metadata.licenses[0].spdx_id if metadata.licenses else 'Unknown'}")

# Convert to JSON
import json
print(json.dumps(metadata.to_dict(), indent=2))

CLI Usage

# Basic extraction (offline mode - default)
upmex extract package.whl

# Online mode - fetches parent POMs and queries APIs
upmex extract --online package.jar

# With pretty JSON output
upmex extract --pretty package.whl

# Output to file
upmex extract package.whl -o metadata.json

# Text format output
upmex extract --format text package.tar.gz

# Detect package type
upmex detect package.jar

# Extract license information with confidence scores
upmex license package.tgz --confidence

Configuration

Configuration can be done via JSON files or environment variables:

Environment Variables

# API Keys
export PME_CLEARLYDEFINED_API_KEY=your-api-key
export PME_ECOSYSTEMS_API_KEY=your-api-key

# Settings
export PME_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG
export PME_CACHE_DIR=/path/to/cache
export PME_OUTPUT_FORMAT=json

Configuration File

Create a config.json:

{
  "api": {
    "clearlydefined": {
      "enabled": true,
      "api_key": null
    }
  },
  "output": {
    "format": "json",
    "pretty_print": true
  }
}
