Get latest information under each category, create markdown files for each category

[arsulegai]

Referring to the idea proposed here in the wiki
https://wiki.hyperledger.org/display/~davidwboswell/Main+page+edits

The tool shall fetch latest PRs, latest issues, latest contributors etc information. Place them in markdown files. That can be fetched directly into the wiki space.

Work is partially done.
TODO:

1. Update the output from the hyperledger-updates repository if the templates in start-here-hyperledger expects additional fields.
2. Add an option to pull recent contributors in hyperledger-updates and enable polling in start-here-hyperledger.

Can you please assign to me this issue?

[arsulegai]

@abhinandanudupa please feel free to raise PRs for the work items. You could add a comment here to let others know which part of the issue you are working on.

[abhinandanudupa]

Alright, I will start working soon and update the details here.

[abhinandanudupa]

Just to confirm - hyperledger-updates is github-updates repo as linked here right?

[abhinandanudupa]

To solve

2. Add an option to pull recent contributors in hyperledger-updates and enable polling in start-here-hyperledger.

I will have to write a function like this, right?

And then configure the config.yaml like this?

What all should be displayed? Profile name, profile pic, repo and?

[arsulegai]

@abhinandanudupa that's right. The expectation for the trending/recent contributors is to produce information in this folder https://github.com/hyperledger-tooling/start-here-hyperledger/tree/main/trending. These files can be directly populated into the wiki and the wiki is automatically kept up-to-date.

[abhinandanudupa]

Ok, then I will start working on it.

[abhinandanudupa]

I am able to generate the contributor list but I am not sure on what should be displayed for each contributor. Can you tell me what is necessary to be displayed?

And can you please tell me how the data in github-updates repository (that I have modified to get contributors data along with the rest) will be updated in this repository?
