Display your Github repositories stats in style using Semantic-UI labeled buttons. Working with Semantic-UI labeled buttons to represent Github buttons (Stars, Forks, Watchers, Issues, Download and Contributors), this jQuery library requests a Github repository information and updates the associated buttons accordingly.
Or follow the How To guide
1- Include the following script in a web page. Notice the release number 1.0.6 in the url; change as needed.
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdn.rawgit.com/websemantics/bragit/1.0.6/bragit.js"></script>2- Add a labeled button as specified in Semantic-UI documentation.
3- Add a custom class name for the Github button you desire following a basic convention github-{username}-{repo}-{action} where action can be, stars, forks, watchers, issues, download or contributors.
<a class="ui labeled tiny button github-websemantics-bragit-stars">
<div class="ui brand tiny button">
<i class="star icon"></i> Stars
</div>
<div class="ui basic brand left pointing label">
<i class="spinner loading icon"></i>
</div>
</a>The above example shows how to add a stars button of this repository, Bragit. The class name constructed as github-websemantics-bragit-stars. Following the above formula, other possible classes / buttons for this repository would be,
github-websemantics-bragit-stars
github-websemantics-bragit-forks
github-websemantics-bragit-watchers
github-websemantics-bragit-issues
github-websemantics-bragit-download
The library takes care of many things behind closed doors. For one thing, it makes sure that the buttons styles are loaded if the Semantic-UI framework was not detected in the loaded document.
The code will automatically inject the css files that contain the styles of three Semantic-UI components button, icon and label using a public cdn https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/semantic-ui
This can be overridden if required as follows
<script type="text/javascript">
Bragit.defaults({ css: {
version: '2.1.8',
inject: false,
uri: 'https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/semantic-ui/{{version}}/components/{{module}}.min.css',
modules: ['button', 'icon', 'label'],
custom: null
}});
</script>Notice the inject flag which is responsible to force the injection of the specified components styles if set to true. Other modules can be added to the list of auto-loaded components and or a custom css styles by setting the custom attribute custom: "css/styles.css"
As explained above, Bragit detects the existence of a unique css class name pattern, github-{username}-{repo}-{action} to retrieve the required Github repository information and update the associated labeled buttons accordingly.
However, should the need arise, this can be changed as follows,
<script type="text/javascript">
Bragit.defaults({
delimiter: '-',
cls: 'github'
});
</script>By changing the delimiter to say _ and the class name cls to brag, the class name for the stars button of this repository will be brag_websemantics_bragit_stars.
Bragit supports a number of actions or action buttons, stars, forks, watchers, issues, download and contributors. These can be re-configured or more actions added through the defaults function,
<script type="text/javascript">
Bragit.defaults({
actions: {
forks: {
uri: '/network',
property: 'forks_count'
},stars: {
uri: '/stargazers',
property: 'stargazers_count'
},watchers: {
uri: '/watchers',
property: 'subscribers_count'
},issues: {
uri: '/issues',
property: 'open_issues_count'
},github: {
uri: '',
property: null
},download: {
uri: '/archive/master.zip',
property: null
},contributors: {
uri: '/contributors',
property: null
}
}
});
</script>Notice how each action has two attributes, a uri and a property name. Bragit appends the uri value to the repository html_url retrieved from Github API. This is then used to set the href value of the labeled button link element a. The property name is used to access a named attribute in the repository information returned from Github API.
For example, using stargazers_count as an index to the repository data will return an number value. This number/text is then used to update the label element of the associated button (and that's how the magic happens, ladies and gents).
Semantic-UI labeled buttons come in all colors and sizes. However we all need to customize styles to our needs sometimes. Here's a quick example of a new color named brand which is used in this project, Bragit to re-theme Github buttons as shown here.
/* styles for github action buttons */
.ui.brand.button, .ui.brand.buttons .button {
background-color: #756c74;
color: #fff!important;
}
.ui.brand.label {
color: #756c74!important;
border-color: #756c74!important;
background-color: #ffffff;
}
.ui.brand.button:focus, .ui.brand.buttons .button:focus,
.ui.brand.button:hover, .ui.brand.buttons .button:hover {
background-color: #9d959c;
}
.ui.brand.labels .label:focus, .ui.brand.label:focus,
.ui.brand.labels .label:hover, .ui.brand.label:hover {
color: #9d959c!important;
border-color: #9d959c!important;
}
.ui.labeled .ui.button .star.icon {
color: #F5CC7A!important;
}All you need to do is to replace the main color #756c74 and its lighter shade #9d959c to your own. Also notice how the stars icon has been colored golden. You can easily change that or even the colors of the other icons (fork for forks, eye for watchers, info circle for issues, download for download and users for contributors). The following is the code to display all the supports Github actions by Bragit.

</a>If the use of Bower is prefered, one can either include Bragit in the bower.json file or install from the command line,
Bower install bragit
We are more than happy to accept external contributions to the project in the form of feedback, bug reports and even better - pull requests :)
To start development of Bragit locally on your machine run through the following steps,
- Install NPM dependencies,
npm i- Optionally, install Bower dependencies to view the demo app located at
./demofolder,
bower i-
Make changes to
./bragit.js, -
Increase the current release number,
npm run change-version 1.0.6 1.0.7Notice that, the the first parameter is the current release followed by the new version number,
The change-version script will change all the files that contain the current version number including package.js, bower.js, bragit.js, README.md, demo/js/index.js and CHANGELOG (undo any changes to CHANGELOG).
This saves time and an unnecessary pain trying to find all release number instances, so huge thanks to Bootstrap contributors for this script.
- Build a distribution bundle, which will be stored at
./dist/bragit.js,
npm run build- Publish the new NPM package (owner)
npm publish- Register for Bower (owner),
bower register- Release a CDN instance,
Browse to Rawgit,
Publish a tagged version of dist/bragit.js bundle, for example
