github/contributors: GitHub Action that given an organization or repository, produces information about the contributors over the specified time period.

This is a GitHub Action that given an organization or specified repositories, produces information about the contributors over the specified time period.

Similar actions to help you recognize contributors by putting them into a README or CONTRIBUTORS.md include:

contributor-list

This action was developed by the GitHub OSPO for our own use and developed in a way that we could open source it that it might be useful to you as well! If you want to know more about how we use it, reach out in an issue in this repository.

As a maintainer, you may want to acknowledge recent contributors in a discussion post
As an OSPO or maintainer, you may want to know who candidates are for new maintainers

If you need support using this project or have questions about it, please open up an issue in this repository. Requests made directly to GitHub staff or support team will be redirected here to open an issue. GitHub SLA's and support/services contracts do not apply to this repository.

OSPO GitHub Actions as a Whole

All feedback regarding our GitHub Actions, as a whole, should be communicated through issues on our github-ospo repository.

Contributors have made commits to the specified repositories/organization on a default branch. Contributions can also be issue, pull request and discussion interactions. The endpoint used may return information that is a few hours old because the GitHub REST API caches contributor data to improve performance.

GitHub identifies contributors by author email address. Contribution counts are grouped by GitHub user, which includes all associated email addresses. To improve performance, only the first 500 author email addresses in the repository link to GitHub users. The rest will appear as anonymous contributors without associated GitHub user information.

Find out more in the GitHub API documentation.

Create a repository to host this GitHub Action or select an existing repository.
Select a best fit workflow file from the examples below.
Copy that example into your repository (from step 1) and into the proper directory for GitHub Actions: .github/workflows/ directory with the file extension .yml (ie. .github/workflows/contributors.yml)
Edit the values below from the sample workflow with your information:
- ORGANIZATION
- REPOSITORY
- START_DATE
- END_DATE
If no start and end date are supplied, the action will consider the entire repository history and be unable to determine if contributors are new or returning. If running on a whole organization then no repository is needed.
If running the action on just one repository or a list of repositories, then no organization is needed.
Also edit the value for GH_ENTERPRISE_URL if you are using a GitHub Server and not using github.com.
For github.com users, leave it empty.
If you are running this action on an organization or repository other than the one where the workflow file is going to be, then update the value of GH_TOKEN.
- Do this by creating a GitHub API token with permissions to read the repository/organization and write issues.
- Then take the value of the API token you just created, and create a repository secret where the name of the secret is GH_TOKEN and the value of the secret the API token.
- Then finally update the workflow file to use that repository secret by changing GH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} to GH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GH_TOKEN }}. The name of the secret can really be anything. It just needs to match between when you create the secret name and when you refer to it in the workflow file.
If you want the resulting issue with the output to appear in a different repository other than the one the workflow file runs in, update the line token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} with your own GitHub API token stored as a repository secret.
- This process is the same as described in the step above. More info on creating secrets can be found here.
Commit the workflow file to the default branch (often master or main)
Wait for the action to trigger based on the schedule entry or manually trigger the workflow as shown in the documentation.

Below are the allowed configuration options:

This action can be configured to authenticate with GitHub App Installation or Personal Access Token (PAT). If all configuration options are provided, the GitHub App Installation configuration has precedence. You can choose one of the following methods to authenticate:

field required default description GH_APP_ID True "" GitHub Application ID. See documentation for more details. GH_APP_INSTALLATION_ID True "" GitHub Application Installation ID. See documentation for more details. GH_APP_PRIVATE_KEY True "" GitHub Application Private Key. See documentation for more details. GITHUB_APP_ENTERPRISE_ONLY False false Set this input to true if your app is created in GHE and communicates with GHE. Personal Access Token (PAT) field required default description GH_TOKEN True "" The GitHub Token used to scan the repository. Must have read access to all repository you are interested in scanning. Other Configuration Options field required default description GH_ENTERPRISE_URL False "" The GH_ENTERPRISE_URL is used to connect to an enterprise server instance of GitHub. github.com users should not enter anything here. ORGANIZATION Required to have ORGANIZATION or REPOSITORY The name of the GitHub organization which you want the contributor information of all repos from. ie. github.com/github would be github REPOSITORY Required to have ORGANIZATION or REPOSITORY The name of the repository and organization which you want the contributor information from. ie. github/contributors or a comma separated list of multiple repositories github/contributor,super-linter/super-linter START_DATE False Beginning of time The date from which you want to start gathering contributor information. ie. Aug 1st, 2023 would be 2023-08-01. END_DATE False Current Date The date at which you want to stop gathering contributor information. Must be later than the START_DATE. ie. Aug 2nd, 2023 would be 2023-08-02 SPONSOR_INFO False False If you want to include sponsor information in the output. This will include the sponsor count and the sponsor URL. This will impact action performance. ie. SPONSOR_INFO = "False" or SPONSOR_INFO = "True" LINK_TO_PROFILE False True If you want to link usernames to their GitHub profiles in the output. ie. LINK_TO_PROFILE = "True" or LINK_TO_PROFILE = "False"

Note: If start_date and end_date are specified then the action will determine if the contributor is new. A new contributor is one that has contributed in the date range specified but not before the start date.

Performance Note: Using start and end dates will reduce speed of the action by approximately 63X. ie without dates if the action takes 1.7 seconds, it will take 1 minute and 47 seconds.

Be sure to change at least these values: <YOUR_ORGANIZATION_GOES_HERE>, <YOUR_GITHUB_HANDLE_HERE>

Local usage without Docker

Make sure you have at least Python3.11 installed
Copy .env-example to .env
Fill out the .env file with a token from a user that has access to the organization to scan (listed below). Tokens should have at least read:org access for organization scanning and read:repository for repository scanning.
Fill out the .env file with the configuration parameters you want to use
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
Run python3 ./contributors.py, which will output everything in the terminal
