Compute bus factor for most popular projects in a given language listed on GitHub.
The bus factor is a measurement of the risk resulting from information and capabilities not being shared among team members, derived from the phrase "in case they get hit by a bus". The "bus factor" is the minimum number of team members that have to suddenly disappear from a project before the project stalls due to lack of knowledgeable or competent personnel.
Firstly, fetch most starred projects for a given programming language. Then, for each project, this program uses contributor statistics from the top 25 most active contributors and outputs data only if the most active developer is accountable for 75% or more of the total contributions.
This program uses Github API to fetch data. It is required from you to provide your GitHub personal access token via environment variable BUSFACTOR_GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN
export BUSFACTOR_GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN="YOUR_GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN"
