Important Notices

[!IMPORTANT] Since the GitHub API only allows 5k requests per hour per user account, the public Vercel instance hosted on https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api could possibly hit the rate limiter (see #1471). We use caching to prevent this from happening (see https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats#common-options). You can turn off these rate limit protections by deploying your own Vercel instance.

[!IMPORTANT] We're a small team, and to prioritize, we rely on upvotes :+1:. We use the Top Issues dashboard for tracking community demand (see #1935). Do not hesitate to upvote the issues and pull requests you are interested in. We will work on the most upvoted first.

GitHub Stats Card

Copy and paste this into your markdown, and that's it. Simple!

Change the ?username= value to your GitHub username.

[![Anurag's GitHub stats](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra)](https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats)

[!WARNING] By default, the stats card only shows statistics like stars, commits, and pull requests from public repositories. To show private statistics on the stats card, you should deploy your own instance using your own GitHub API token.

[!NOTE] Available ranks are S (top 1%), A+ (12.5%), A (25%), A- (37.5%), B+ (50%), B (62.5%), B- (75%), C+ (87.5%) and C (everyone). This ranking scheme is based on the Japanese academic grading system. The global percentile is calculated as a weighted sum of percentiles for each statistic (number of commits, pull requests, reviews, issues, stars, and followers), based on the cumulative distribution function of the exponential and the log-normal distributions. The implementation can be investigated at src/calculateRank.js. The circle around the rank shows 100 minus the global percentile.

Hiding individual stats

You can pass a query parameter &hide= to hide any specific stats with comma-separated values.

Options: &hide=stars,commits,prs,issues,contribs

![Anurag's GitHub stats](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&hide=contribs,prs)

Showing additional individual stats

You can pass a query parameter &show= to show any specific additional stats with comma-separated values.

Options: &show=reviews,discussions_started,discussions_answered,prs_merged,prs_merged_percentage

![Anurag's GitHub stats](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show=reviews,discussions_started,discussions_answered,prs_merged,prs_merged_percentage)

Showing icons

To enable icons, you can pass &show_icons=true in the query param, like so:

![Anurag's GitHub stats](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show_icons=true)

Showing commits count for specified year

You can specify a year and fetch only the commits that were made in that year by passing &commits_year=YYYY to the parameter.

![Anurag's GitHub stats](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&commits_year=2020)

Themes

With inbuilt themes, you can customize the look of the card without doing any manual customization.

Use &theme=THEME_NAME parameter like so :

![Anurag's GitHub stats](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show_icons=true&theme=radical)

All inbuilt themes

GitHub Readme Stats comes with several built-in themes (e.g. dark, radical, merko, gruvbox, tokyonight, onedark, cobalt, synthwave, highcontrast, dracula).

You can look at a preview for all available themes or checkout the theme config file. Please note that we paused the addition of new themes to decrease maintenance efforts; all pull requests related to new themes will be closed.

Responsive Card Theme

Since GitHub will re-upload the cards and serve them from their CDN, we can not infer the browser/GitHub theme on the server side. There are, however, four methods you can use to create dynamics themes on the client side.

Use the transparent theme

We have included a transparent theme that has a transparent background. This theme is optimized to look good on GitHub's dark and light default themes. You can enable this theme using the &theme=transparent parameter like so:

![Anurag's GitHub stats](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show_icons=true&theme=transparent)

:eyes: Show example

Add transparent alpha channel to a themes bg_color

You can use the bg_color parameter to make any of the available themes transparent. This is done by setting the bg_color to a color with a transparent alpha channel (i.e. bg_color=00000000):

![Anurag's GitHub stats](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show_icons=true&bg_color=00000000)

:eyes: Show example

Use GitHub's theme context tag

You can use GitHub's theme context tags to switch the theme based on the user GitHub theme automatically. This is done by appending #gh-dark-mode-only or #gh-light-mode-only to the end of an image URL. This tag will define whether the image specified in the markdown is only shown to viewers using a light or a dark GitHub theme:

[![Anurag's GitHub stats-Dark](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show_icons=true&theme=dark#gh-dark-mode-only)](https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats#gh-dark-mode-only)
[![Anurag's GitHub stats-Light](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show_icons=true&theme=default#gh-light-mode-only)](https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats#gh-light-mode-only)

:eyes: Show example

Use GitHub's new media feature

You can use GitHub's new media feature in HTML to specify whether to display images for light or dark themes. This is done using the HTML <picture> element in combination with the prefers-color-scheme media feature.

<picture>
  <source
    srcset="https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show_icons=true&theme=dark"
    media="(prefers-color-scheme: dark)"
  />
  <source
    srcset="https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show_icons=true"
    media="(prefers-color-scheme: light), (prefers-color-scheme: no-preference)"
  />
  <img src="https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show_icons=true" />

Top Languages Card

The top languages card shows a GitHub user's most frequently used languages.

[!WARNING] By default, the language card shows language results only from public repositories. To include languages used in private repositories, you should deploy your own instance using your own GitHub API token.

[!NOTE] Top Languages does not indicate the user's skill level or anything like that; it's a GitHub metric to determine which languages have the most code on GitHub. It is a new feature of github-readme-stats.

[!WARNING] This card shows language usage only inside your own non-forked repositories, not depending on who the author of the commits is. It does not include your contributions into another users/organizations repositories. Currently there are no way to get this data from GitHub API. If you want this behavior to be improved you can support this feature request created by @rickstaa inside GitHub Community.

[!WARNING] Currently this card shows data only about first 100 repositories. This is because GitHub API limitations which cause downtimes of public instances (see #1471). In future this behavior will be improved by releasing GitHub action or providing environment variables for user's own instances.

Usage

Copy-paste this code into your readme and change the links.

Language stats algorithm

We use the following algorithm to calculate the languages percentages on the language card:

ranking_index = (byte_count ^ size_weight) * (repo_count ^ count_weight)

By default, only the byte count is used for determining the languages percentages shown on the language card (i.e. size_weight=1 and count_weight=0). You can, however, use the &size_weight= and &count_weight= options to weight the language usage calculation. The values must be positive real numbers. More details about the algorithm can be found here.

• &size_weight=1&count_weight=0 - (default) Orders by byte count.
• &size_weight=0.5&count_weight=0.5 - (recommended) Uses both byte and repo count for ranking
• &size_weight=0&count_weight=1 - Orders by repo count

![Top Langs](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api/top-langs/?username=anuraghazra&size_weight=0.5&count_weight=0.5)

Exclude individual repositories

You can use the &exclude_repo=repo1,repo2 parameter to exclude individual repositories.

![Top Langs](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api/top-langs/?username=anuraghazra&exclude_repo=github-readme-stats,anuraghazra.github.io)

Hide individual languages

You can use &hide=language1,language2 parameter to hide individual languages.

![Top Langs](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api/top-langs/?username=anuraghazra&hide=javascript,html)

Show more languages

You can use the &langs_count= option to increase or decrease the number of languages shown on the card. Valid values are integers between 1 and 20 (inclusive). By default it was set to 5 for normal & donut and 6 for other layouts.

![Top Langs](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api/top-langs/?username=anuraghazra&langs_count=8)

Compact Language Card Layout

Quick Tip (Align The Cards)

By default, GitHub does not lay out the cards side by side. To do that, you can use such approaches:

Stats and top languages cards

Deploy on your own

First step: get your Personal Access Token (PAT)

For deploying your own instance of GitHub Readme Stats, you will need to create a GitHub Personal Access Token (PAT). Below are the steps to create one and the scopes you need to select for both classic and fine-grained tokens.

Selecting the right scopes for your token is important in case you want to display private contributions on your cards.

Classic token

• Go to Account -> Settings -> Developer Settings -> Personal access tokens -> Tokens (classic).
• Click on Generate new token -> Generate new token (classic).
• Scopes to select:
  • repo
  • read:user
• Click on Generate token and copy it.

Fine-grained token

[!WARNING]
This limits the scope to issues in your repositories and includes only public commits.

• Go to Account -> Settings -> Developer Settings -> Personal access tokens -> Fine-grained tokens.
• Click on Generate new token -> Generate new token.
• Select an expiration date
• Select All repositories
• Scopes to select in Repository permission:
  • Commit statuses: read-only
  • Contents: read-only
  • Issues: read-only
  • Metadata: read-only
  • Pull requests: read-only
• Click on Generate token and copy it.

On Vercel

:film_projector: Check Out Step By Step Video Tutorial By @codeSTACKr

Since the GitHub API only allows 5k requests per hour, my https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api could possibly hit the rate limiter. If you host it on your own Vercel server, then you do not have to worry about anything. Click on the deploy button to get started!

[!NOTE] Since #58, we should be able to handle more than 5k requests and have fewer issues with downtime :grin:.

[!NOTE] If you are on the Pro (i.e. paid) Vercel plan, the maxDuration value found in the vercel.json can be increased when your Vercel instance frequently times out during the card request. You are advised to keep this value lower than 30 seconds to prevent high memory usage.

:hammer_and_wrench: Step-by-step guide on setting up your own Vercel instance

1. Go to vercel.com.
2. Click on Log in.
3. Sign in with GitHub by pressing Continue with GitHub.
4. Sign in to GitHub and allow access to all repositories if prompted.
5. Fork this repo.
6. Go back to your Vercel dashboard.
7. To import a project, click the Add New... button and select the Project option.
8. Click the Continue with GitHub button, search for the required Git Repository and import it by clicking the Import button. Alternatively, you can import a Third-Party Git Repository using the Import Third-Party Git Repository -> link at the bottom of the page.
9. Create a Personal Access Token (PAT) as described in the previous section.
10. Add the PAT as an environment variable named PAT_1 (as shown).
11. Click deploy, and you're good to go. See your domains to use the API!

On other platforms

[!WARNING] This way of using GRS is not officially supported and was added to cater to some particular use cases where Vercel could not be used (e.g. #2341). The support for this method, therefore, is limited.

:hammer_and_wrench: Step-by-step guide for deploying on other platforms

1. Fork or clone this repo as per your needs
2. Move express from the devDependencies to the dependencies section of package.json https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats/blob/ba7c2f8b55eac8452e479c8bd38b044d204d0424/package.json#L54-L61
3. Run npm i if needed (initial setup)
4. Run node express.js to start the server, or set the entry point to express.js in package.json if you're deploying on a managed service https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats/blob/ba7c2f8b55eac8452e479c8bd38b044d204d0424/package.json#L11
5. You're done 🎉

Available environment variables

GitHub Readme Stats provides several environment variables that can be used to customize the behavior of your self-hosted instance. These include:

Name	Description	Supported values
CACHE_SECONDS	Sets the cache duration in seconds for the generated cards. This variable takes precedence over the default cache timings for the public instance. If this variable is not set, the default cache duration is 24 hours (86,400 seconds).	Any positive integer or 0 to disable caching
WHITELIST	A comma-separated list of GitHub usernames that are allowed to access your instance. If this variable is not set, all usernames are allowed.	Comma-separated GitHub usernames
GIST_WHITELIST	A comma-separated list of GitHub Gist IDs that are allowed to be accessed on your instance. If this variable is not set, all Gist IDs are allowed.	Comma-separated GitHub Gist IDs
EXCLUDE_REPO	A comma-separated list of repositories that will be excluded from stats and top languages cards on your instance. This allows repository exclusion without exposing repository names in public URLs. This enhances privacy for self-hosted instances that include private repositories in stats cards.	Comma-separated repository names
FETCH_MULTI_PAGE_STARS	Enables fetching all starred repositories for accurate star counts, especially for users with more than 100 repositories. This may increase response times and API points usage, so it is disabled on the public instance.	true or false

See the Vercel documentation on adding these environment variables to your Vercel instance.

[!WARNING] Please remember to redeploy your instance after making any changes to the environment variables so that the updates take effect. The changes will not be applied to the previous deployments.

Keep your fork up to date

You can keep your fork, and thus your private Vercel instance up to date with the upstream using GitHub's Sync Fork button. You can also use the pull package created by @wei to automate this process.

:sparkling_heart: Support the project

I open-source almost everything I can and try to reply to everyone needing help using these projects. Obviously, this takes time. You can use this service for free.

However, if you are using this project and are happy with it or just want to encourage me to continue creating stuff, there are a few ways you can do it:

• Giving proper credit when you use github-readme-stats on your readme, linking back to it. :D
• Starring and sharing the project. :rocket:
• - You can make a one-time donation via PayPal. I'll probably buy a coffee tea. :tea:

Thanks! :heart:
