How do I get a person's no of commits?
Hi Giulio,
Yes, this data is not yet available through the API.
Internally, we have a data structure called a Position
which joins an account to a project contribution. Positions are created when someone clicks the I am this person
button on a contributor page.
Positions are not yet exposed through the API. This means you can't get the list of projects contributed to by an account, and so by extension you also can't get the commits associated with an account.
There's no technical reason that this data is not available -- we just had to limit the scope of the API to fit in available development time. It could be added relatively simply, and when we have time to work on the API again it will certainly be added.
Anything new on that?
No, there have been no changes to the API in quite a while.
I'm interested by this feature too, any news on this ?
Any news now that Ohloh has new owners?
This is basically a blocker for my intended application.
It's interesting~
Any news? :)
Ideally I'd like to be able to get a graph for a person/contributor similar to that off a project. To be able to see how the commits per month developers, number of lines of code contributed in different languages, et.c
