🎮 Usage Examples

Basic Analysis

python main.py torvalds

Top 20 Repositories

python main.py torvalds --top 20

Export to JSON

python main.py torvalds --export profile_report.json

Use Personal Token (No Rate Limits!)

python main.py torvalds --token ghp_YOUR_TOKEN_HERE

🔐 Why Use a Personal Access Token?

  • 10x Rate Limit Increase — Analyze more profiles
  • No Throttling — Instant results
  • Private Data Access — If authorized
  • Reliable — Fewer timeout errors

Get token: https://github.com/settings/tokens (no scopes needed)


📊 Key Statistics

  • ✅ Clear method/variable naming
  • ✅ Comprehensive error handling

🚨 Error Handling

The tool gracefully handles:

❌ Invalid Username    → Clear error message
⏱️  Rate Limited       → Suggests using token
🌐 Network Issues      → Retry with guidance
📊 Invalid Data        → Skips gracefully
🔒 Private Profiles    → Limited data access
