Support for MOSS graph urls

[tcibinan]

data2graph can be used to visualize all kinds of graphs. Nevertheless it was originally developed in order to visualize plagiarism graphs. One of the best plagiarism analysis tools is MOSS which is maintained by Stanford university.

MOSS performs source code plagiarism analysis and produces HTML-based output. Currently, Data2Graph cannot use direct MOSS analysis result because it is not a valid plagiarism graph.

The idea behind the issue is to provide a support for an alternative graph url type which is basically a MOSS analysis result link.

Implementation plan:

• Develop MOSS analysis result parser.
• Filter MOSS analysis result urls and use the new parser.

@nikita715 Please share if you have any thoughts on the matter.

Turned out that client side MOSS results parsing is forbidden by CORS rules. To overcome it data2graph can make use of moss api service. We can provide one-click deployment for both services.

This way we can support moss urls interpretation.
