How to Contribute

Think about the most usefull Code-data for the next generation of textual Code Models.

The most valuable dataset properties (use your own judgment) are:

1. Open License
2. Data quality
3. Dataset size
4. Data variance/variety/nicheness
5. Ease of obtaining/processing

To add a new dataset, open a Issue under given dataset-request template. Gather all the related informations appropriate to it. Use the issue to track.

Check if there is existing Code or someone already working on it: See Additional Resources

1. Eleuthers Pile V1 Repos
2. Ask on Carper #code-pile
3. Ask on Eleuther
4. Consult the linked Spreadsheets below

Then implement it through the following steps:

1. Fork this repo
2. Use the working branch
3. Read the shared classes in datasets.py and codepile.py
4. Create mvp/example for your dataset
5. Create a pull request
6. Keep building the data-domain specific classes and repeat
