Community Plugin

This plugin allows users to fetch contributor data from GitHub via a slash command.

Installation

1. Download the master version of the Community plugin for your Mattermost server.
2. Upload this file in the Mattermost System Console > Plugins > Management page to install the plugin. To learn more about how to upload a plugin, see the documentation.
3. Install the GitHub plugin and connect your GitHub account. The v2.0 of the Github plugin (or newer) works.
4. Create a personal access token for your GitHub account here. This is required because GitHub has a low rate limit for unauthenticated API requests. You do not need to specify a scope for your token.

Usage

• Use /community committer [organization]/[repo] [since] [until] to fetch data and summarize it in a post, e.g. /community committer mattermost/mattermost-server 2019-01-01 2019-01-31. To fetch the data from all repositories in an organization omit the repo name, e.g. /community committer mattermost 2019-01-01 2019-01-31.
• Use /community changelog mattermost [year-month] to fetch data for monthly changelogs and summarize it in a post, e.g. /community changelog mattermost 2024-01.
