  • Trending Repos are ranked by period (past_week, etc.) and language. No auth required.
  • Collections are curated repo sets. Enumerate collections, hot collections, and repos within a collection.
  • Collection Rankings by stars, PRs, or issues — require collection_id and period.
  • Issue Creators and PR Creators are per-repo (owner/repo). History, countries, orgs available.
  • Stargazers — countries, history, orgs per repo.

Gotchas

  • No auth: API is public. Rate limit 600/hour per IP, 1000/min globally. 10 calls/minute in config.
  • owner/repo: Use GitHub owner/repo format (e.g. pingcap, tidb). No leading slash.
  • Period: past_week, past_28_days, etc. Check each endpoint for supported periods.
