Link to GitHub

[Bankaifan]

Hey, would it be possible to make an link to the regarding github-link like the already available NPM-Link?

@oznu: It should be easily possible. It is included in the npm registry request but not defined in your service.

"versions": {
    ...
      "repository": {
        "type": "git",
        "url": "git+https://github.com/XXX/YYY.git"
      },
.....

@Bankaifan: If you are able to do it by your own then you just need to adapt the follwing files:

==> homebridge-config-ui-x/src/pm.ts (getting the details from npm registry)
==> homebridge-config-ui-x/ui/src/app/plugins/plugins.component.html (view template)

I'm pretty sure that pull requests are welcome here ;-)

Thanks @pierrejochem. The original reason I did not include this was some plugin owners weren't adding their repository attributes in the package.json, and some even used BitBucket (why would you...?).

Thehomepage attribute might be more universal. NPM will usually set this to be the url of the GitHub project page if npm has been told which repo it is:

npm view homebridge-config-ui-x homepage
# https://github.com/oznu/homebridge-config-ui-x#readme

But it also handles the BitBucket exceptions:

npm view homebridge-plugin-chromecast homepage
# https://bitbucket.org/robertherber/homebridge-chromecast#readme

The upside of doing it this way would be that it matches what npmjs.org displays.
