Feature idea: monitor just the repos started by a user

Great tool you've created - thank you!

Unless I'm being dim, I don't think there's an easy way to do this already (?)

My thinking here was that I'd like a way to watch activity on just the items I had started. Thus it would be narrowed down but at the same time targeted to repos I'm interested in.

But in theory some people might want to watch activity of the repos a designated other person had starred, so accepting a star username would seem a handy way to do it.

Effectively it would look at the items on here: https://github.com/username?tab=stars

I made a little script that takes my github network -- the list of people I follow on Github - and then finds all the new Repos that they have starred since the last time the script was run. You can take a look here: http://wasauce.com.s3.amazonaws.com/ghtrends-1625699067.269083.html -- I haven't made any effort to make it look pretty.

I also take the people I have starred on github and monitor:

  • Who have they starred since the last time the script was run.
  • Of the people they have starred (in total) what repos have those people starred.

The link above is my most recent output. Happy to share if you are interested in running this yourself. Due to Github API limits the script takes a considerable amount of time to run -- I think I use just under 15k API calls to fetch the data.
