github-language-usage

Search for all the languages ​​used by a given github user and returns the average values ​​in percentages. Package is written in Typescript.

How it works

• This package uses GitHub GraphQL API to fetch the neccessary data.
• It will search for all the languages ​​used by a given github user and then calculate how the ratio is in percentages.
• Depending on the token read permissions it will search in the public and private repositories of the given user.

Installation

npm:

npm i github-language-usage

or yarn:

yarn add github-language-usage

Usage

You'll need an Github OAuth token with the repo scope.

async function asyncCall() {
  const result = await githubLanguageUsage('<YOUR_TOKEN>', '<GITHUB_USER_NAME>')
 
  console.log(result)
  //=> [ { name: 'HTML', color: '#e34c26', percentage: 70}, {...} ]
}
 
asyncCall()
