Usage

Authentication

All functions require a GitHub personal access token with appropriate permissions.

You will need to set it as an environment variable:

export GITHUB_TOKEN=your_token_here

Functions

All functions return a pandas DataFrame and accept an optional save argument.

• Setting save=True will cause the data to be saved to data/
• Setting save="path/to/file.csv" will cause the data to be saved to the specified path.

Org-level data:

from github_analyser.org_user_info import get_org_members, get_org_teams
from github_analyser.repos import get_repos

# list all repositories in an organisation
repos = get_repos("my-org")

# list all members of an organisation
members = get_org_members("my-org")

# list all teams in an organisation
teams = get_org_teams("my-org")

Team and repo-level data:

from github_analyser.team_user_info import get_team_members
from github_analyser.repo_user_info import get_repo_collaborators
from github_analyser.repo_contributors import get_repo_contributors
from github_analyser.commits import get_commits
from github_analyser.issues import get_issues
from github_analyser.pull_requests import get_pull_requests
from github_analyser.licences import get_licences

# list members of a team (use the team slug, e.g. "my-team")
members = get_team_members("my-org", "my-team")

# list collaborators of a repository
collaborators = get_repo_collaborators("my-org", "my-repo")
