> Local git statistics including GitHub-like contributions calendars.

I'd be curious to see your calendar with all your commits. Ping me on Twitter (@IonicaBizau). :smile: Until then, here's my calendar:


Contents

- Installation
- Usage

- Importing and deleting commits
- Importing all the commits from GitHub and BitBucket
- What about the GitHub Contributions calendar?

- Documentation
- How to contribute

:cloud: Installation

You can install the package globally and use it as command line tool:

``sh


Install the package globally

npm i -g git-stats

Initialize git hooks

This is for tracking the new commits

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IonicaBizau/git-stats/master/scripts/init-git-post-commit | bash
`


Then, run git-stats --help and see what the CLI tool can do.


`
$ git-stats --help
Usage: git-stats [options]

Local git statistics including GitHub-like contributions calendars.

Options:
-r, --raw Outputs a dump of the raw JSON data.
-g, --global-activity Shows global activity calendar in the current
repository.
-d, --data Sets a custom data store file.
-l, --light Enables the light theme.
-n, --disable-ansi Forces the tool not to use ANSI styles.
-M, --stats-mode Mode for author stats: 'additions', 'deletions', or
'both' (default: 'both').
-S, --author-stats Shows a pie chart with author additions/deletions
statistics.
-A, --author Filter author related contributions in the current
repository.
-a, --authors Shows a pie chart with the author related
contributions in the current repository.
-u, --until Optional end date.
-s, --since Optional start date.
--record Records a new commit. Don't use this unless you are
a mad scientist. If you are a developer just use
this option as part of the module.
-h, --help Displays this help.
-v, --version Displays version information.

Examples:
$ git-stats # Default behavior (stats in the last year)
$ git-stats -l # Light mode
$ git-stats -s '1 January, 2012' # All the commits from 1 January 2012 to now
$ git-stats -s '1 January, 2012' -u '31 December, 2012' # All the commits from 2012
$ git-stats -S # Shows author additions/deletions statistics pie chart
$ git-stats -S -M additions # Shows only additions statistics
$ git-stats -S -M deletions # Shows only deletions statistics

Your commit history is kept in ~/.git-stats by default. You can create
~/.git-stats-config.js to specify different defaults.

Documentation can be found at https://github.com/IonicaBizau/git-stats.

Usage

$3


I know it's not nice to start your git commit calendar from scratch. That's why I created git-stats-importer–a tool which imports or deletes the commits from selected repositories.

Check it out here: https://github.com/IonicaBizau/git-stats-importer

The usage is simple:

`sh


Install the importer tool

$ npm install -g git-stats-importer

Go to the repository you want to import

$ cd path/to/my-repository

Import the commits

$ git-stats-importer

...or delete them if that's a dummy repository

$ git-stats-importer --delete
`

$3

Yes, that's also possible. I built a tool which downloads and then imports all the commits you have pushed to GitHub and BitBucket!

`sh


Download the repository downloader

$ git clone https://github.com/IonicaBizau/repository-downloader.git

Go to repository downloader

$ cd repository-downloader

Install the dependencies

$ npm install

Start downloading and importing

$ ./start
`

$3


If you want to visualize the calendars that appear on GitHub profiles, you can do that using ghcal.

`sh


Install ghcal

$ npm install -g ghcal

Check out @alysonla's contributions

$ ghcal -u alysonla
`

For more detailed documentation, check out the repository: https://github.com/IonicaBizau/ghcal.

If want to get even more GitHub stats in your terminal, you may want to try github-stats--this is like git-stats but with data taken from GitHub.

Using the configuration file


You can tweak the git-stats behavior using a configuration file in your home directory: ~/.git-stats-config.js.

This file should export an object, like below (defaults are listed):

`js
module.exports = {
// "DARK", "LIGHT" or an object interpreted by IonicaBizau/node-git-stats-colors
"theme": "DARK"

// The file where the commit hashes will be stored
, "path": "~/.git-stats"

// [DEPRECATED] First day of the week https://github.com/IonicaBizau/git-stats/issues/121
, first_day: "Sun"

// This defaults to one year ago
// It can be any parsable date
, since: undefined

// This defaults to now
// It can be any parsable date
, until: undefined

// Don't show authors by default
// If true, this will enable the authors pie
, authors: false

// No global activity by default
// If true, this will enable the global activity calendar in the current project
, global_activity: false
};
`


Since it's a js file, you can require any other modules there.

Saving the data as HTML and images


git-stats --raw outputs raw JSON format which can be consumed by other tools to generate results such as HTML files or images.

git-stats-html interprets the JSON data and generates an HTML file. Example:

`sh

Install git-stats-html

npm install -g git-stats-html

Export the data from the last year (generate out.html)

git-stats --raw | git-stats-html -o out.html

Export data since 2015 (save the results in out.html)

git-stats --since '1 January 2015' --raw | ./bin/git-stats-html -o out.html --big

`

After we have the HTML file, we can generate an image file using pageres by @sindresorhus:

`sh

Install pageres

npm install -g pageres-cli

Generate the image from HTML

pageres out.html 775x250

`

Cross-platform compatibility


git-stats is working fine in terminal emulators supporting ANSI styles. It should work fine on Linux and OS X.

If you run git-stats to display graph on Windows, please use a terminal that can properly display ANSI colors.

Cygwin Terminal is known to work, while Windows Command Prompt and Git Bash do not. Improvements are more than welcome! :dizzy:




:clipboard: Example

Here is an example how to use this package as library. To install it locally, as library, you can use npm install git-stats (or yarn add git-stats):

`js
// Dependencies
const GitStats = require("git-stats");

// Create the GitStats instance
const g1 = new GitStats();

// Display the ansi calendar
g1.ansiCalendar({
theme: "DARK"
}, function (err, data) {
console.log(err || data);
});
`

:yum: How to contribute

Have an idea? Found a bug? See [how to contribute][contributing].

:sparkling_heart: Support my projects

I open-source almost everything I can, and I try to reply to everyone needing help using these projects. Obviously,
this takes time. You can integrate and use these projects in your applications for free! You can even change the source code and redistribute (even resell it).

However, if you get some profit from this or just want to encourage me to continue creating stuff, there are few ways you can do it:


- Starring and sharing the projects you like :rocket:
- [![Buy me a book][badge_amazon]][amazon]—I love books! I will remember you after years if you buy me one. :grin: :book:
- [![PayPal][badge_paypal]][paypal-donations]—You can make one-time donations via PayPal. I'll probably buy a ~~coffee~~ tea. :tea:
- [![Support me on Patreon][badge_patreon]][patreon]—Set up a recurring monthly donation and you will get interesting news about what I'm doing (things that I don't share with everyone).
- Bitcoin—You can send me bitcoins at this address (or scanning the code below): 1P9BRsmazNQcuyTxEqveUsnf5CERdq35V6`


Thanks! :heart:
