Unfortunately, the sources of packages aren't currently stored in the Guix Data Service database, so I'm guessing this will require storing some new data, then working out how to present it. A question maybe for you Simon, what would be the perfect data for this particular use case? I gather it's something about the (source ...) field in packages, probably for all the exported (plus maybe not-exported packages). > And second, it could be nice in the "near" future to have at least 2 > sources.json: one for the last commit refreshed every X minutes (or > hours) and another one containing the concatenation of all the sources > of Guix (at least the one reachable by guix time-machine i.e. after the > big overhaul of Inferiors).

Once you can get the data for an individual revision in the Guix Data Service, it should be reasonably easy to just get the data for multiple revisions, say all for the last week. Chris
