## Description

📣 WordPress plugin to show Github profile summary through their API.

⚡️ Demo: [https://manojkumar.online/lab/wp/github-flair-demo/](https://manojkumar.online/lab/wp/github-flair-demo/)

After installing the plugin, just use this shortcode: `[github-flair]` in your posts,
pages or widgets.

You can make use of the user attribute of the shortcode like this:

    ```
    [github-flair user="WordPress"] 
    ```

where WordPress can be replaced by your desired Github username.

By default, the search function is enabled but if you need to remove it, you can
do so with:

    ```
    [github-flair show-search="no"]
    ```

You can also make use of the shortcode in your template files using this

    ```
    <?php echo do_shortcode("[github-flair user='WordPress']") ; ?>
    ```

## FAQ

### Do I need an API key to access GitHub key?

You might not need an API key for now since GitHub offers unauthenticated access
up to certain limit. Please read this: https://docs.github.com/en/rest/guides/getting-
started-with-the-rest-api which says that they allow up to 60 requests per hour 
per user. So they block the IP for a while if they exceed that limit.

The admin inputs for API key will be in the future releases if people find it interesting
to work with.

### How do I limit the number of search results?

Make use of the attribute `[github-flair total-results="25"]` where you can set 
any number instead of 25.

### I need to add/delete details to/from these cards.

You can do so if you are a developer by editing the script.js file and getting the
desired results from the API into the HTML and then minify it. As a non-developer,
You can request more profile data through https://github.com/M4N0JKUM4R/Flair-Github/
