This idea seems good to me. Is there a preview for the new version of the content? Re updating, could we do both? Install the bot, and have an automated job that calls the bot (which could also be called manually if needed)? |
|
I agree, seems like a good idea. My only real aesthetic concern is that the graphics seem to take up a lot more space. The top of the readme is important real estate for someone new. |
|
Yes, let's move contributors to the bottom of the README |
|
okay, we're moved to the bottom! Does someone here with admin to the organization / repo want to install the bot? As for the automation, I'm going to test a few recipes on some of the singularity hub repos and I'll come back when I have one that I like. And once we install the bot, it might be fun to open a test issue and learn together how to interact with it (I haven't used it before!) |
|
@danielskatz @cosden just a note on the bot - he requires write access to the repo (and this makes sense in retrospect) so I would consider adding him carefully. |
|
This looks much better at the bottom! I'm good with no bot, and just a monthly automated job to update. However, how would specific types of contributions be decided? Do we put them in ourselves in .all-contributorsrc? |
|
Yeah, you can just check out the types https://allcontributors.org/docs/en/emoji-key and then manually change the tags. That's fairly easy to do in a text editor. I just made them all consistent for code here. |
|
Ready for merge? |
|
Let's try it! |

Hey @USRSE/usrse-maintainers ! For some reason sourcecred (what we use to generate our contributors graphic) has become unreliable - and so because the tool is not widely used I'm replacing it with the much more widely used all-contributors. You can see a quick preview of the (more interactive) generated content in the README here. You can even tweak the kind of contributions (from doc to code to infra, there is a whole list!) https://allcontributors.org/docs/en/emoji-key
For automation we have a few options. We can install the bot to interact with it in comments, or I can generate a similar automated job to update the graphic once a month, like we were doing before. I can add this for a second PR, whatever the choice be! Probably after that people might want to tweak the emoji / types for their contributions too
