Github_Traffic

This script, can help one determine all the unique viewers on his/her Repository. By using access-token one can determine the viewers and number of time they viewed the Repo. Currently data of only 14 days is possible (limitation of GitHib-API), but in future by using the GraphQL queries, this limitation can be answered. The script uses PickleDB, the data can be imported in CSV as well, although the functionality hasn't been added till this point of time.

Note

This script can be converted in a Bot, Action or GitHub app!!!

Dependency

  • githubpy
  • PickleDB
  • python-decouple

These are summarised in requirement.txt

Setup

  • A virtual environment (recommended)
  • pip install -r requirements.txt
  • Generate your own access token from here
  • Paste the token in a .env file (Take .env.example as an example)
  • It is recommended to paste this token somewhere, as one can't review it again.
  • Determine the Repository whose traffic you want to view.
  • Run the Script
