Simple tool for visually inspecting whether a repo you are interested in is going viral. Useful to check where you stand in the "competitive advantage landscape" by using that code.
Simply get from the repo URL the repo_creator/repo_name and run:
python cli.py repo_creator/repo_name
The code is in a Jupyter notebook, nicely shown.
It is the same code as the in the command line interface cli.py (only without the argument parsing header). It is quite self-explanatory: open it and take a look.
If you use the notebook just change the first cell to define the target repo you want to analyze, and then run all cells.
It will query GitHub's API, which has different limits for registered/unregistered requests; unregistered has worked fine so far.
Open one of the URLs that the program is querying, i. e:
https://api.github.com/repos/ + repo_creator/repo_name + /issues?state=all&per_page=100&page=1
You can check all the JSON fields and change the code to retrieve whatever you need.
