GitHub Activity Tracker

A command-line tool built in Golang to track your GitHub activities, such as commits, issues, pull requests, and more, for a given user.

Installation

Linux:

1. Build the application:

   go build -o github-activity

2. Move the executable to /usr/local/bin/ for system-wide access:

   sudo mv github-activity /usr/local/bin/

Windows:

For Windows, follow these steps to build and install your Go application:

1. Build the application: Open a command prompt (or PowerShell) in the directory where your Go code is located and run the following command:

   go build -o github-activity.exe

   This will generate the github-activity.exe executable.

2. Move the executable to a directory in your PATH: To make the application accessible system-wide, move it to a directory that's included in your PATH. You can use a directory like C:\Program Files or C:\Users\<your_username>\go\bin, or choose another location.

   Use the following command to move the github-activity.exe:

   move github-activity.exe C:\path\to\desired\directory\

   For example:

   move github-activity.exe C:\Users\<your_username>\go\bin\

3. Ensure the directory is in your PATH: If the directory where you moved the executable is not already in your PATH, you can add it manually:

   • Right-click on This PC or Computer, and select Properties.
   • Click Advanced system settings on the left side.
   • In the System Properties window, click Environment Variables.
   • Under System variables, scroll down and select the Path variable, then click Edit.
   • Click New and add the path to the directory where github-activity.exe was moved (e.g., C:\Users\<your_username>\go\bin\).
   • Click OK to save the changes.

After following these steps, you should be able to run github-activity from any command prompt or PowerShell window.
