cheatcode

A tool to check plagiarism and code reuse at hackathons

Setup

1. Add your github token to the GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN environment variable
2. Update hackathon information in config.yaml and add submissions to submissions.tsv
3. Run:

   python3 -m venv .cheatcode-env
   source .cheatcode-env/bin/activate
   pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

python3 main.py <path-to-config-file> <path-to-submissions-file>

If the config file contains a devpost_link of the hackathon such as https://hacknroll2020.devpost.com, then the script automatically scrapes all the submissions from the hackathon's devpost page and finds the github repos and its contributors for code check.

If a submissions file is provided, then devpost will not be scraped and the submissions file will be used for analysis.
