Dynamic Profile Page On GitHub

A GitHub action to push updates to your special profile repo.

Why?

GitHub announced a special repository (github_username/github_username) so that its README.md file will appear on your profile page. People liked it a lot and started using some static pages with fancy texts and images. This GitHub action helps you to add a section that is updated dynamically when you commit a repository that uses this action. A line per repository is added to the section and the lines are ordered from the newest to the oldest. You can see a sample execution in my profile page.

Please feel free to fork it or contribute to it.

Usage

You can add this action to any repository other than profile repository (special repository). This action will add a line for every repository (that the action is activated) to the README file of the special repository.

Follow the steps;

• Create your special repository if not exists.
• Add <!-- START gadpp --> add the end of the README.md file of the special repo.
• Create a personal access token here and set the repo permission.
• Add the access token created in previous step to the repository (that uses this action) as a secret with name API_TOKEN_GITHUB.
• Create the YML file for the action under .github/workflows of the repository (the one which is not the special repository). You can use the sample given below. Please update YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME and EMAIL_USED_ON_GITHUB values.
• Please do not forget to add checkout step before GADPP step in your pipeline.
