Create an empty GitHub repository. Do not initialize it. 14 | 2. Download [the contribute.py script](https://github.com/Shpota/github-activity-generator/archive/master.zip) 15 | and execute it passing the link on the created repository 16 | ```sh 17 | python contribute.py --repository=git@github.com:user/repo.git 18 | ``` 19 | Now you have a repository with lots of changes in your GitHub account. 20 | Note: it takes several minutes for GitHub to reindex your activity. 21 | 22 | ## How it works 23 | The script initializes an empty git repository, creates a text file and starts 24 | generating changes to the file for every day within the last year (0-20 commits 25 | per day). Once the commits are generated it links the created repository with 26 | the remote repository and pushes the changes. 27 | 28 | ## Making contributions private 29 | Note: This script doesn't encourage you to cheat. Cheating is bad. But if anybody 30 | is judging your professional skills by the graph at your GitHub profile (which 31 | caries no value) they deserve to see a rich graph. 32 | 33 | For that matter, you might want to make the generated repository private. It is free 34 | on GitHub. Now, you only need to set up your account 35 | [to show private contributions](https://help.github.com/en/articles/publicizing-or-hiding-your-private-contributions-on-your-profile). 36 | This way GitHub users will see that you contributed something, but they won't be 37 | able to see what exactly. 38 | 39 | ## Customizations 40 | You can customize how often to commit and how many commits a day to make, etc. 41 | 42 | For instance, with the following command, the script will make from 1 to 12 43 | commits a day. It will commit 60% days a year. 44 | ```sh 45 | python contribute.py --max_commits=12 --frequency=60 --repository=git@github.com:user/repo.git 46 | ``` 47 | Use `--no_weekends` option if you don't want to commit on weekends 48 | ```sh 49 | python contribute.py --no_weekends 50 | ``` 51 | If you do not set the `--repository` argument the script won't push the changes. 52 | This way you can import the generated repository yourself. 53 | 54 | Use `--days_before` and `--days_after` to specify how many days before the current 55 | date the script should start committing, and how many days after the current date it 56 | will keep committing. 57 | 58 | ```sh 59 | python contribute.py --days_before=10 --days_after=15 60 | ``` 61 | 62 | Run `python contribute.py --help` to get help. 63 | 64 | ## System requirements 65 | To be able to execute the script you need to have Python and Git installed. 66 | 67 | ## Troubleshooting 68 | #### I performed the script but my GitHub activity is still the same. 69 | It might take several minutes for GitHub to reindex your activity. Check 70 | if the repository has new commits and wait a couple of minutes. 71 | #### The changes are still not reflected after some time. 72 | Are you using a private repository? If so, enable showing private contributions 73 | [following this guide](https://help.github.com/en/articles/publicizing-or-hiding-your-private-contributions-on-your-profile). 74 | 75 | #### Still no luck 76 | Make sure the email address you have in GitHub is the same as you have in 77 | your local settings. GitHub counts contributions only when they are made 78 | using the corresponding email. 79 | 80 | Check your local email settings with: 81 | ``` 82 | git config --get user.email 83 | ``` 84 | If it doesn't match with the one from GitHub reset it with 85 | ``` 86 | git config --global user.email "user@example.com" 87 | ``` 88 | Create a new repository and rerun the script. 89 | 90 | #### There are errors in the logs of the script. 91 | Maybe you tried to use an existing repository. If so, make sure you are using 92 | a new one which is *not initialized*. 93 | 94 | **If none of the options helped, open an issue and I will fix it as soon as possible.** 95 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /.github/after.png: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/0vm/github-activity-generator/262edea89f7501325c30907935c02b61f3e8657b/.github/after.png -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /.github/before.png: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/0vm/github-activity-generator/262edea89f7501325c30907935c02b61f3e8657b/.github/before.png -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /.github/workflows/build.yml: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | name: build 2 | on: [push, pull_request] 3 | jobs: 4 | build: 5 | runs-on: ubuntu-latest 6 | strategy: 7 | matrix: 8 | python-version: ["3.8", "3.9", "3.10", "3.11"] 9 | steps: 10 | - uses: actions/checkout@v2 11 | - name: Set up Python ${{ matrix.python-version }} 12 | uses: actions/setup-python@v2 13 | with: 14 | python-version: ${{ matrix.python-version }} 15 | - name: Install dependencies 16 | run: pip install flake8 17 | - name: Lint 18 | run: | 19 | flake8 contribute.py 20 | flake8 test_contribute.py 21 | - name: Test for commits 22 | run: | 23 | python -m unittest test_contribute -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /LICENSE: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | Apache License 2 | Version 2.0, January 2004 3 | http://www.apache.org/licenses/ 4 | 5 | TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR USE, REPRODUCTION, AND DISTRIBUTION 6 | 7 | 1.
