This repository hosts the backend code (the frontend is already embedded). It is a Springboot application.
Frontend code at: https://github.com/wzy1935/github_visualization_frontend
Our project uses Postgres as the database. You have to create a database manually. You can use src/main/resources/db.sql to create necessary tables.
Our application allows users to use their GitHub token to crawl repository data. In order to do so, you should create an OAuth app. set the Authorization callback URL as <APPLICATION_URL>/api/oauth/redirect. e.g., if you are hosting it at a local machine with port 8080, then the callback URL should be http://localhost:8080/api/oauth/redirect. Collect your client_secret and client_id at this step.
Finally, you can start the application. Note that you should pass the following to the environment variables. It is recommended to create an app.properties file (not provided for this repo for security reasons) to manage them:
spring.datasource.driver-class-name=org.postgresql.Driver
spring.datasource.type=com.alibaba.druid.pool.DruidDataSource
mybatis.mapper-locations=classpath:mapper/*.xml
mybatis.type-aliases-package=com.example.github_visualization.POJO
github_visualization.fast_crawler=true
github_visualization.chinese_tokenizer=false
spring.datasource.url=...
spring.datasource.username=...
