Contributing to github-readme-stats

We love your input! We want to make contributing to this project as easy and transparent as possible, whether it's:

  • Reporting a issue
  • Discussing the current state of the code
  • Submitting a fix
  • Proposing new features
  • Becoming a maintainer

All Changes Happen Through Pull Requests

Pull requests are the best way to propose changes. We actively welcome your pull requests:

  1. Fork the repo and create your branch from master.
  2. If you've added code that should be tested, add some tests' example.
  3. If you've changed APIs, update the documentation.
  4. Issue that pull request!

Local Development

To run & test github-readme-stats you need to follow few simple steps :- (make sure you already have a vercel account)

  1. Install Vercel CLI
  2. Fork the repository and clone the code to your local machine
  3. Run the command "vercel" in the root and follow the steps there
  4. Create a .env file in the root of the directory
  5. In the .env file add a new variable named "PAT" with your github Personal access token
  6. Run the command "vercel dev" to start a development server at https://localhost:3000

Themes Contribution

Github readme stats supports custom theming and you can also contribute new themes!

All you need to do is edit themes/index.js file and add your theme at the end of the file.

While creating the Pull request to add a new theme don't forget to add a screenshot of how your theme looks, you can also test how it looks using custom url parameters like title_color, icon_color, bg_color, text_color

NOTE: If you are contributing your theme just because you are using it personally, then you can customize the looks of your card with URL params instead.

Any contributions you make will be under the MIT Software License

In short, when you submit changes, your submissions are understood to be under the same MIT License that covers the project. Feel free to contact the maintainers if that's a concern.

Report issues/bugs using Github's issues

We use GitHub issues to track public bugs. Report a bug by opening a new issue; it's that easy!

Bug Reports

Great Bug Reports tend to have:

  • A quick summary and/or background
  • Steps to reproduce
    • Be specific!
    • Share the snapshot, if possible.
    • Github Readme Stats' live link
  • What actually happens
  • What you expected would happen
  • Notes (possibly including why you think this might be happening, or stuff you tried that didn't work)

People love thorough bug reports. I'm not even kidding.

Feature Request

Great Feature Requests tend to have:

  • A quick idea summary
  • What & why you wanted to add the specific feature
  • Additional Context like images, links to resources to implement the feature etc etc.
