This is a function to get metrics for a list of repos. You can provide an owner and attempt retrieve all repositories from a particular organization, or you can provide a character vector of repositories.
Usage
get_multiple_repos_metrics(
repo_names = NULL,
token = NULL,
data_format = "dataframe",
time_course = FALSE,
github_stats = "all"
)Arguments
- repo_names
a character vector of repositories you'd like to collect metrics from.
- token
You can provide the Personal Access Token key directly or this function will attempt to grab a PAT that was stored using the `authorize("github")` function
- data_format
Default is to return a curated data frame. However if you'd like to see the raw information returned from GitHub set format to "raw".
- time_course
Should the time course data be collected or only the summary metrics?
- github_stats
Which stats would you like to collect from the GitHub API? Argument should be a vector of the names of the stats to be collected. This differs whether time_course is TRUE/FALSE. If time_course = FALSE should be a vector that can include: "repo_activity", "stars", "forks", "contributors", "community" If time_course = TRUE should be a vector that can include: "clones" and "views". By default "all" will be collected.
Examples
if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
authorize("github")
repo_names <- c("fhdsl/metricminer", "jhudsl/OTTR_Template")
some_repos_metrics <- get_multiple_repos_metrics(repo_names = repo_names)
stars_and_forks <- get_multiple_repos_metrics(repo_names = repo_names,
github_stats = c("stars", "forks"))
some_repos_metrics <- get_multiple_repos_metrics(repo_names = repo_names,
time_course = TRUE)
} # }
