Black Panther ✊🏿 Profile

An InSpec profile for testing the community health of GitHub repositories. It uses the GitHub v3 API

For more information, please see the documentation

Community Health

GitHub measures community health in terms of the indicators of community-friendly content of a repository, building on the Open Source Guide. A strong community can be enabled by clear guides and clear supporting documentation explaining how to contribute, what recognition is given for contributions and ensuring quality in the process of maintaining the repository.

This is done by consuming the repository's community object via the GitHub API, and detecting deviations from expected profiles.

Using

In order to use this profile, you need two environment variables to be set:

• GITHUB_REPO: GitHub repository you want to test e.g. EGI-Foundation/ansible-style-guide
• GITHUB_TOKEN: Personal API Token
• Ruby and bundler
• The Gems - bundle install

Once your environment is set up, you can run the profile :

inspec exec .
WARN: Unresolved specs during Gem::Specification.reset:
      net-ssh (< 5.0, >= 2.6.5, >= 2.9)
      ffi (>= 1.0.1)
      multi_json (~> 1.10)
      http-cookie (~> 1.0.0)
WARN: Clearing out unresolved specs.
Please report a bug if this causes problems.
