Flask app usage:
pip install starred-repo-finder --upgrade
Once the package is installed, import and use the get_repos_starred_by_same_users()
function in your Flask app like this:
from flask import Flask, jsonify, request
from starred_repo_finder import get_repos_starred_by_same_users
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/starred_repo', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def find_starred_repo():
# check the request method
if request.method == "POST":
params = request.json
else:
params = request.args
# repo_name is required
repo_name = params.get("repo_name")
if repo_name is None:
return (
jsonify({"error": "repo_name parameter is required"}),
400,
)
# get the optional parameters or use the default values
limit = int(params.get("limit", 10))
order = params.get("order", "stargazers")
# call the function from your package
results, _ = get_repos_starred_by_same_users(repo_name, limit, order)
# process the results as needed, here for instance we're sending them as JSON
return jsonify(results)
Jupyter Notebook usage:
%pip install starred-repo-finder --upgrade
Once the package is installed, import and use the get_repos_starred_by_same_users()
function in your Jupyter Notebook like this:
# Import necessary packages
from starred_repo_finder import get_repos_starred_by_same_users
# Define parameters
repo_name = 'vinta/awesome-python'
limit = 10
order = 'stargazers'
# Call the function
results, _ = get_repos_starred_by_same_users(repo_name, limit, order)
# Display the results
print(results)
