# GitHub Repo Stats. Stars, Forks, Languages, Contributors (`seemuapps/github-repo-stats-scraper`) Actor Get stars, forks, issues, language breakdown, license, last commit, and contributor counts for any GitHub repository. Bulk-process a list of repos in one run. - **URL**: https://apify.com/seemuapps/github-repo-stats-scraper.md - **Developed by:** [Andrew](https://apify.com/seemuapps) (community) - **Categories:** Social media, Lead generation, Agents - **Stats:** 2 total users, 1 monthly users, 100.0% runs succeeded, NaN bookmarks - **User rating**: No ratings yet ## Pricing from $5.00 / 1,000 repositories This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## GitHub Repo Stats — Stars, Forks, Languages, Contributors Get stars, forks, issues, language breakdown, license, last commit, and contributor counts for any public GitHub repository. Bulk-process a list of repos in one run. ### What you get - Star count, fork count, watchers, open issues, repo size - Full language breakdown by bytes plus primary language - License (SPDX id), topics, default branch, homepage, description - Contributor count (includes anonymous contributors) - Owner type (User or Organization) and avatar URL - Created, last-updated, and last-pushed timestamps (ISO) - Archived / disabled / fork / template flags plus feature toggles (issues, wiki, discussions) - Direct export to JSON, CSV, Excel, or Google Sheets ### Use cases - OSS market research — compare star and fork growth across competing libraries - Investor due diligence — measure repository activity, contributor base, and language stack - Developer relations — track adoption of your repo vs. category leaders - Supply-chain audit — list licenses, topics, and archived status across a fleet of dependencies - Hiring / sourcing — identify active maintainers and large-scale projects in your stack ### How to use 1. Enter a list of **Repositories** as `owner/repo` slugs (e.g. `facebook/react`, `vercel/next.js`) 2. Set **Concurrency** if you want to tune throughput (default 10) 3. Run the actor — one repository per row in the **Dataset** tab 4. Export the dataset to CSV, Excel, JSON, or Google Sheets from the run page Repos that 404 or fail are still returned as a row with the `error` field populated, so you never lose track of which inputs failed. ### Output format One repository per dataset row — perfect for direct CSV, Excel, or Google Sheets export: ```json { "fullName": "facebook/react", "owner": "facebook", "repo": "react", "htmlUrl": "https://github.com/facebook/react", "description": "The library for web and native user interfaces.", "homepage": "https://react.dev", "primaryLanguage": "JavaScript", "languages": { "JavaScript": 5123456, "TypeScript": 1234567, "HTML": 23456 }, "languageBytes": 6381479, "stars": 232145, "forks": 47512, "watchers": 6724, "openIssues": 943, "size": 853210, "defaultBranch": "main", "license": "MIT", "topics": ["javascript", "react", "frontend", "library", "ui"], "archived": false, "disabled": false, "isFork": false, "isTemplate": false, "hasIssues": true, "hasWiki": false, "hasDiscussions": true, "ownerType": "Organization", "ownerAvatarUrl": "https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/69631?v=4", "contributorCount": 1742, "createdAt": "2013-05-24T16:15:54Z", "updatedAt": "2026-05-22T18:00:00Z", "pushedAt": "2026-05-23T07:14:00Z", "error": null } ```` ### Input options | Field | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | Repositories | array | List of `owner/repo` slugs — full GitHub URLs are also accepted (required) | | Concurrency | integer | Parallel fetches — default 10, max 50 | # Actor input Schema ## `repos` (type: `array`): List of GitHub repositories as `owner/repo` slugs (e.g. `facebook/react`). One row per repo in the dataset. ## `concurrency` (type: `integer`): How many repositories to fetch in parallel. Default 10 is safe for most token rate limits. ## Actor input object example ```json { "repos": [ "facebook/react", "vuejs/core", "vercel/next.js", "microsoft/vscode" ], "concurrency": 10 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): One row per repo: stars, forks, watchers, open issues, languages, license, topics, owner info, contributor count, timestamps, and more. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "repos": [ "facebook/react", "vuejs/core", "vercel/next.js", "microsoft/vscode" ] }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("seemuapps/github-repo-stats-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
