## đŸĻ‘ Interested to get your own? Try it now at [metrics.lecoq.io](https://metrics.lecoq.io/) with your GitHub username! Some plugins are not are not available at [metrics.lecoq.io](https://metrics.lecoq.io/), for a fully-featured experience use it as a [GitHub Action](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/github-metrics-as-svg-image) instead! # 📜 How to use? ## âš™ī¸ Using GitHub Action on your profile repository (~5 min setup) Setup a GitHub Action which runs periodically and pushes your generated metrics image to your repository. See all supported options in [action.yml](action.yml). Assuming your username is `my-github-user`, you can then embed rendered metrics in your readme like below: ```markdown ![Metrics](https://github.com/my-github-user/my-github-user/blob/master/github-metrics.svg) ![Metrics](https://github.com/my-github-user/my-github-user/blob/main/github-metrics.svg) ```
đŸ’Ŧ How to setup? ### 0. Setup your personal repository Create a repository with the same name as your GitHub login (if it's not already done). ![Setup personal repository](.github/readme/imgs/setup_personal_repository.png) Its `README.md` will be displayed on your user profile: ![GitHub Profile Example](.github/readme/imgs/example_github_profile.png) ### 1. Create a GitHub personal token From the `Developer settings` of your account settings, select `Personal access tokens` to create a new token. No additional scopes are needed for basic metrics, but you may have to grant additional scope depending on what features you're planning to use: - `public_repo` scope for some plugins - `read:org` scope for all organizations related metrics - `repo` scope for all private repositories related metrics ![Setup a GitHub personal token](.github/readme/imgs/setup_personal_token.png) A scope-less token can still display private contributions by enabling `Include private contributions on my profile` in your account settings: ![Enable "Include private contributions on my profile`"](.github/readme/imgs/setup_private_contributions.png) If a plugin has not enough scopes to operate (and `plugins_errors_fatal` isn't enabled), it'll be reported in the rendering like below: ![Plugin error example](https://github.com/lowlighter/lowlighter/blob/master/metrics.plugin.error.svg) ### 2. Put your GitHub perosnal token in your repository secrets Go to the `Settings` of your repository to create a new secret and paste your freshly generated GitHub token there. ![Setup a repository secret](.github/readme/imgs/setup_repository_secret.png) ### 3. Create a GitHub Action workflow in your repository Create a new workflow from the `Actions` tab of your repository and paste the following: ```yaml name: Metrics on: # Schedule updates (each hour) schedule: [{cron: "0 * * * *"}] # Lines below let you run workflow manually and on each commit (optional) push: {branches: ["master", "main"]} workflow_dispatch: jobs: github-metrics: runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps: # See action.yml for all options - uses: lowlighter/metrics@latest with: # Your GitHub token token: ${{ secrets.METRICS_TOKEN }} # GITHUB_TOKEN is a special auto-generated token restricted to current repository, which is used to push files in it committer_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} ``` See all supported options in [action.yml](action.yml). Rendered metrics will be committed to your repository on each run. ![Action update example](.github/readme/imgs/example_action_update.png) #### Choosing between `@latest`, `@master` or a fork If you wish to use new features as they're being released, you can switch from `@latest` to `@master`. As the latter is used as a development branch, jobs may fail from time to time (although we try to mitigate this). When using a token with additional permissions, it is advised to fork this repository and use it instead to minimize security risks: ```yaml - uses: my-github-username/metrics@master # If you make changes on your fork, be sure not leave @latest as tag! ``` In this case, please consider watching new releases to stay up-to-date and enjoy latest features! `@latest` will be updated on each release soon after [Planned for next release](https://github.com/lowlighter/metrics/projects/1#column-12378679) is emptied. Metrics doesn't introduce breaking changes **from an user point of view** (i.e. your workflows will always be valid) so you can follow release cycles without worrying. #### Examples workflows Metrics displayed on this page are rendered from this [workflow](https://github.com/lowlighter/lowlighter/blob/master/.github/workflows/metrics.yml) so you can check it out for some code examples about plugins usage. You can also take a look at this [user workflow](https://github.com/lowlighter/lowlighter/blob/master/.github/workflows/personal.yml) if you want. ### 4. Embed link into your README.md Update your README.md to embed your metrics: ```markdown ![Metrics](https://github.com/my-github-user/my-github-user/blob/master/github-metrics.svg) ![Metrics](https://github.com/my-github-user/my-github-user/blob/main/github-metrics.svg) ```
## 💕 Using the shared instance (~1 min setup, but with limitations) For convenience, you can use the shared instance available at [metrics.lecoq.io](https://metrics.lecoq.io) without any additional setup. ```markdown ![Metrics](https://metrics.lecoq.io/my-github-user) ``` This is mostly intended for previews, to enjoy all features consider using GitHub Action instead.
đŸ’Ŧ Fair use To ensure service availability, shared instance has a few limitations: * Images are cached for 1 hour * Rendered metrics **won't be updated** during this time window when queried * You can manually update rendering againg your metrics on [metrics.lecoq.io](https://metrics.lecoq.io) * There is a rate limiter enabled (it doesn't affect already cached metrics) * Several plugins may not be available
## đŸ—ī¸ Deploying your own web instance (~15 min setup, depending on your sysadmin knowledge) Setup a metrics instance on your server if you don't want to use GitHub Actions and [metrics.lecoq.io](https://metrics.lecoq.io). See all supported options in [settings.example.json](settings.example.json). Assuming your username is `my-github-user`, you can then embed rendered metrics in your readme like below: ```markdown ![Metrics](https://my-personal-domain.com/my-github-user) ```
đŸ’Ŧ How to setup? ### 0. Prepare your server You'll need a server with a recent version [NodeJS](https://nodejs.org) (see used version in [Dockerfile](Dockerfile#L1-L2)). ### 1. Create a GitHub personal token From the `Developer settings` of your account settings, select `Personal access tokens` to create a new token. No additional scopes are needed. ![Setup a GitHub personal token](.github/readme/imgs/setup_personal_token.png) ### 2. Install dependencies Clone repository, install dependencies and copy configuration example to `settings.json`: ```shell git clone https://github.com/lowlighter/metrics.git cd metrics/ npm install --only=prod cp settings.example.json settings.json ``` ### 3. Configure your instance and start it Edit `settings.json` to configure your instance. ```javascript { //GitHub API token "token":"GITHUB_TOKEN", //Other options... } ``` See all supported options in [settings.example.json](settings.example.json). If you plan to make your web instance public, it is advised to restrict its access thanks to rate limiter and access list. Once you've finished configuring metrics, start your instance: ```shell npm start ``` Access your server with provided port in `setting.json` from your browser to ensure everything is working. ### 4. Embed link into your README.md Edit your repository readme and add your metrics image from your server domain: ```markdown ![Metrics](https://my-personal-domain.com/my-github-user) ``` ### 6. (optional) Setup your instance as a service To ensure that your instance will restart if it reboots or crashes, you should set it up as a service. This is described below for Linux-like systems which support *systemd*. Create a new service file `/etc/systemd/system/github_metrics.service` and paste the following after editing paths inside: ```ini [Unit] Description=Metrics After=network-online.target Wants=network-online.target [Service] Type=simple WorkingDirectory=/path/to/metrics ExecStart=/usr/bin/node /path/to/metrics/index.mjs [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target ``` Reload services, enable it, start it and check if it is up and running: ```shell systemctl daemon-reload systemctl enable github_metrics systemctl start github_metrics systemctl status github_metrics ```
âš ī¸ HTTP errors code Following error codes may be encountered on web instance: | Error code | Description | | ------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `400 Bad request` | Invalid query (e.g. unsupported template) | | `403 Forbidden` | User not allowed in `restricted` users list | | `404 Not found` | GitHub API did not found the requested user | | `429 Too many requests` | Thrown when rate limiter is trigerred | | `500 Internal error` | Server error while generating metrics images (check logs for more details) | | `503 Service unavailable` | Maximum user capacity reached, only cached images can be accessed for now |
🔗 HTTP parameters Most of options from [action.yml](action.yml) are actually supported by web instance, though syntax is slightly different. All underscores (`_`) must be replaced by dots (`.`) and `plugin_` prefixes must be dropped. For example, to configure pagespeed plugin you'd use the following: ``` https://my-personal-domain.com/my-github-user?pagespeed=1&pagespeed.detailed=1&pagespeed.url=https%3A%2F%2Fexample.com ``` Note that url parameters must be [encoded](https://developer.mozilla.org/fr/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Objets_globaux/encodeURIComponent). As for `base` content, which is enabled by default, sections are available through "`base.
`". For example, to display only `repositories` section, use: ``` https://my-personal-domain.com/my-github-user?base=0&base.repositories=1 ```

See their respective documentation for more informations about how to setup them: * [đŸ—ƒī¸ Base content](/source/plugins/base/README.md) * [🧱 Core](/source/plugins/core/README.md) * [📰 Recent activity](/source/plugins/activity/README.md) * [🌸 Anilist](/source/plugins/anilist/README.md) * [đŸŽŸī¸ Follow-up of issues and pull requests](/source/plugins/followup/README.md) * [đŸŽĢ Gists](/source/plugins/gists/README.md) * [💡 Coding habits](/source/plugins/habits/README.md) * [📅 Isometric commit calendar](/source/plugins/isocalendar/README.md) * [đŸˆˇī¸ Most used languages](/source/plugins/languages/README.md) * [📜 Licenses](/source/plugins/licenses/README.md) * [👨‍đŸ’ģ Lines of code changed](/source/plugins/lines/README.md) * [đŸŽŧ Music plugin](/source/plugins/music/README.md) * [💉 Nightscout](/source/plugins/nightscout/README.md) * [âąī¸ Website performances](/source/plugins/pagespeed/README.md) * [🧑‍🤝‍🧑 People plugin](/source/plugins/people/README.md) * [âœ’ī¸ Recent posts](/source/plugins/posts/README.md) * [đŸ—‚ī¸ Projects](/source/plugins/projects/README.md) * [✨ Stargazers over last weeks](/source/plugins/stargazers/README.md) * [🌟 Recently starred repositories](/source/plugins/stars/README.md) * [📌 Starred topics](/source/plugins/topics/README.md) * [🧮 Repositories traffic](/source/plugins/traffic/README.md) * [🐤 Latest tweets](/source/plugins/tweets/README.md) * [⏰ WakaTime plugin](/source/plugins/wakatime/README.md) ### đŸĻ Organizations metrics While metrics targets mainly user accounts, it's possible to render metrics for organization accounts. ![Metrics (organization account)](https://github.com/lowlighter/lowlighter/blob/master/metrics.organization.svg)
đŸ’Ŧ Metrics for organizations Setup is the same as for user accounts, though you'll need to add `read:org` scope, **whether you're member of target organization or not**. ![Add read:org scope to personal token](.github/readme/imgs/setup_token_org_read_scope.png) You'll also need to set `user` option with your organization name. If you're encounting errors and your organization is using single sign-on, try to [authorize your personal token](https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/authenticating-to-github/authorizing-a-personal-access-token-for-use-with-saml-single-sign-on). Most of plugins supported by user accounts will work with organization accounts, but note that rendering metrics for organizations consume way more APIs requests. To support private repositories, add full `repo` scope to your personal token. #### â„šī¸ Example workflow ```yaml - uses: lowlighter/metrics@latest with: # ... other options token: ${{ secrets.METRICS_TOKEN }} # A personal token from an user account with read:org scope committer_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} # GitHub auto-generated token user: organization-name # Organization name ```
đŸ’Ŧ Organizations memberships for user accounts Only public memberships can be displayed by metrics by default. You can manage your membership visibility in the `People` tab of your organization: ![Publish organization membership](.github/readme/imgs/setup_public_membership_org.png) For organization memberships, add `read:org` scope to your personal token. ![Add read:org scope to personal token](.github/readme/imgs/setup_token_org_read_scope.png)
