Your contribution graph (GitHub Activity), and your unread notifications, open pull requests and stars (GitHub and GitHub Overview).
Tiles: GitHub Activity, GitHub, GitHub Overview - in the widget picker under Online & Mail.
Before you start
- A GitHub account.
Steps
- Open Personal access tokens and choose Generate new token (classic).
- Tick read:user. For the unread count, tick notifications too.
- Generate the token and copy it. It starts with ghp_.
- In lumabar, right-click the dock, choose Widgets…, open Online & Mail and click GitHub Activity, GitHub or GitHub Overview to add it.
- Click the new tile on the dock. Its card opens.
- Fill in the card as shown below and press Connect. lumabar checks it with one real read - if anything is wrong, the card says what.
What to enter
| Field on the card | What goes in it |
|---|---|
| Personal access token | The token, ghp_… |
Good to know
- Without the notifications scope everything else still works - only the unread count stays empty.
If it doesn't connect
The card says what went wrong, in words like these:
“The card does not connect”
Copy the whole token again, and check it has not expired.
