Description

Problem statement

There are 1000+ contracts in Flow, Ethereum has 10,000,000.

Show the excellent cadence codes to developers is a good way to promote the development ecology.

We need a good cadence search engine.

Proposed solution

Our solution is cadence code search engine .

We design our solution based on ElasticSearch.

The solution contains 3 parts:

1 Basic cadence code search engine. The developers could search contracts, interface, function, resources, etc. For example, you could user the query "the resource of nba top shot".

2 cadence code visualization. How to show the search result of contracts? In addition to code, related scripts, transactions, code structure, similar codes, online call relation are also displayed

3 Connect to playground. Yes, you could directly run code search result in playground. We prepare the contracts and related transaction, scripts.

Main work

1 cadence code Spider. We will get cadence codes from flow chain, github, etc.

2 cadence code search engine. We use ElasticSearch to build the search system. The code search results will be ranked by pagerank algorithm.

3 A little NLP(Natural Language Processing) for cadence language. We need parse the cadence into functions, resources, etc. We need find the similar codes and auto generate scripts. So some AI technology is needed.

Impact

Which developer can reject a cadence search engine like google : )

I revise the former Cadence Code Intelligence to simple Cadence search engine.
Code AI seems still too difficult in current period : )
