Action Summary

The Code Per Day GitHub Action automates the creation of visually appealing SVG charts that showcase daily code additions and deletions across all repositories a user has contributed to. It uses the GitHub GraphQL API to gather commit data (without exposing sensitive details) and is designed for embedding these charts in profile READMEs, providing a clear, aesthetic summary of coding activity. This action simplifies tracking and sharing coding contributions while supporting customization of chart styles and themes.

What’s Changed

Fix

Private repos are now included in the chart. GitHub’s contributionsCollection.commitContributionsByRepository field silently drops private contributions it classifies as restricted, even when the token has repo scope. When running against the token owner (no username override), the action now backfills by enumerating every repo the token can read directly via viewer.repositories and merges the two lists.

Measured impact on a real profile: 47 → 65 repos, 1,333 → 1,511 commits.

Also

  • README gains a Limitations section covering profile privacy, SAML SSO authorization, fine-grained PAT caveats, org-enforced member privacy, and unlinked-email commits.
  • Per-repo log line no longer prints null commits for repos discovered via direct enumeration.
