Github repositories scraper


Scrape Github for forks of projects
 

Instructions

To use this tool you'll need to create a personal Github account and enter your user name and a personal access token in the respective fields of this tool.

The tool expects a list of repository names in the common format: owner/repository

Examples: digitalmethodsinitiative/dmi-tcat and torvalds/linux

Please enter a new repository on a single line.

The output can be found in the upper menu. The CSV file contains all data. The .gexf file can be opened in Gephi.
Inside Gephi you will see a network of repository nodes. The (directed) edges signify fork relations between repositories.

Optionally, the tools output can be restricted to only contain repositories from our original query set.
