Different kind of contributors

Open szaghi opened this issue 9 years ago • 3 comments

Dear all,

thank you for sharing this nice project.

I would like to promote an enhancement: it often happens that people contribute to a project indirectly, without pushing commits, pull-requests and so on. Many times people contribute to a project just testing it and opening issues/tickets. It would be nice to have also a list of such contributors, e.g. listing the authors of the issues opened. Does this feature be already available? If not, do you like it?

My best regards, Stefano

Yes I like it!

Would you like to send us a PR?

Once you've contributed I can make you a contributor.

:-) Great answer!

I have no experience with JS, node.js... I cannot contribute, sorry, maybe others will inspired by this idea :-)

Thank you again, My best regards, Stefano

Ah, it's quite alright!

If you'd like to try, I can give you tips!

e.g. this is the API you want to use for contributors: https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/#list-contributors

and this is the API for people who've contributed by opening issues: https://developer.github.com/v3/issues/#list-issues (exclude issues that have the pull_request key)

Best, David
