A tool that generates a repository which being pushed into your GitHub account creates a nice contributions calendar.
Ensure you configured NPM and NodeJS not to require sudo
when installing packages globally.
$ npm i -g gh-contributions
To start the GitHub contributions server, do:
$ gh-contributions
For this application to work well on Windows, Git must be installed with the option to put it in PATH
enabled, like in this screenshot:
If Git is not installed with this option selected, gh-contributions will not be able to generate the repository.
$ git clone git@github.com:IonicaBizau/github-contributions.git
$ cd github-contributions
$ npm i
$ npm start
The server runs on the 9000
port. Open http://localhost:9000/
in your browser.
Check the help information on the app page (http://localhost:9000
), after you start the app.
You will need to use a version lower than 3.0.0
to run this in Docker. Currently this is not supported anymore.
Build Docker container locally:
docker build -t github-contributions .
Start Docker container:
docker run --rm -it -p 127.0.0.1:9000:9000 --name=github-contributions-server github-contributions
Open http://localhost:9000/
in your browser.

I open-source almost everything I can, and I try to reply 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 🚀
-
—You can make one-time donations via PayPal. I'll probably buy a
coffeetea. 🍵 -
—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):
