PBOM

Paper Bill of Materials (PBOM) is a tool to generate a bill of materials for an academic paper. It uses syft to generate an SBOM from a directory of code, git repository or docker image. It then uses the SBOM to generate a bill of materials for the paper. The bill of materials is a list of all the software dependencies used in the paper, including the version of the software and the license.

syft is required to generate the SBOM. Install syft using the following command:

curl -sSfL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/anchore/syft/main/install.sh | sh -s -- -b /usr/local/bin

or alternative options listed in the syft installation guide

Install pbom using the following command:

gem install pbom

pbom generate --input /path/to/code --output /path/to/output

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
