Title: This is a side project I&#x27;ve been working on for the last few months. I built an automated system to continuously mirror all the code on PyPI to a series of Github repositories. Mirroring PyPI code to Github enables:<p>1. Scanning of all new Python packages for accidentally published credentials<p>2. A browsable&#x2F;searchable index of published code with a nice UI<p>3. Large-scale analysis of <i>all</i> published code to see how the language is evolving<p>Using this project anyone is able to download the contents of PyPI to their personal machine and analyse every piece of code ever published in a matter of hours.<p>I hope it enables people to do things with the worlds largest and oldest corpus of Python code that wasn&#x27;t possible before, and while this is likely totally useless to most people I think that is kind of cool and unique.
