Include languages for private organization repos?

[thorpelawrence]

Hi there!

Just wondering, is it possible to get language metrics for all repos you have access to, that aren't owned directly by you - for example, if I
contribute to some private repos in an organization I own but I want these languages to show on my profile?

My token has scopes: repo, org:read

For example

organizations(first: 10) {
      nodes {
        repositories(first: 10) {
          nodes {
            languages(first: 10) {
              edges {
                size
                node {
                  color
                  name
                }
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }

Hello!

Yes, you can set the repositories_affiliations option:

metrics/source/plugins/base/metadata.yml

Lines 37 to 47 in b17eba9

	# Filter repositories by user affiliations
	# Note that it may affect some plugin outputs (broad affiliations will result in less representative metrics)
	repositories_affiliations:
	description: Repositories affiliations
	type: string
	default: owner
	values:
	- "" # Use all repositories related to you
	- owner # Use repositories you own
	- collaborator # Use repositories you have contributed too
	- organization_member # Use repositories where you're an organization member

Using "" on it will remove entirely the affiliations constraint from the query.

I don't have that much experience with GitHub organizations so I'm not entirely sure, but it may also include repositories where you're a member of said organization but have not actually contributed too. So you could also try to set it to collaborator level.

(note that some plugins re-use same the data extracted by base plugin, which is the case for the languages plugin, so that's why even though it's a base plugin option, it'll affect the languages stats)

Hope this helps 🙂

I will have a look, thanks for your help! 🙂

@thorpelawrence did you try? I haven't, but I think normally "owner" would work for the repositories you own in a organization no?

@Napolitain I was able to get it to work, but it was either collecting languages for every repo, in all orgs I belong to (which made my results not very relevant to me, since they were languages used in the org that I don't use much), or they didn't make much difference (I'm guessing since there's only a few I actually 'own' in orgs)
