valaxy-addon-git-log

Integrate Valaxy's Git Logs plugin to display contributor information

Installing this Plugin

pnpm add valaxy-addon-git-log

By default, the plugin retrieves Git information via API. Due to the limitations of static servers, it may not automatically obtain the repository address from the Git environment. Therefore, it is recommended to manually provide the repository address as shown below:

import { defineValaxyConfig } from 'valaxy'
import { addonGitLog } from 'valaxy-addon-git-log'

export default defineValaxyConfig({
  addons: [
    addonGitLog({
      repositoryUrl: 'https://github.com/your-username/your-repository.git',
    }),
  ],
})

Using this Plugin

Basic Usage

To add Git contributors to a page, use the GitLogContributor component:

<template>
  <GitLogContributor />
</template>

Customization examples

If you are a theme developer or want to customize pages with git information, you can refer to the following example:

<script setup lang="ts">
import { useGitLog } from 'valaxy-addon-git-log'

const gitLog = useGitLog()
</script>

<template>
  <ul>
    <li v-for="contributor in gitLog.contributors" :key="contributor.email">
      <img :src="contributor.avatar" alt="Avatar" width="30" height="30">
      {{ contributor.name }}
    </li>
  </ul>
</template>

Configuration / Options

In your project (wether theme or addon), you can write this in valaxy.config.ts.

export default defineValaxyConfig<ThemeConfig>({
  addons: [
    addonGitLog({
      contributor: {
        mode: 'api',
        // logArgs: '--first-parent --follow',
      },
    }),
  ],
})

Name	Type	Default	Description
repositoryUrl	string	undefined	The URL of the GitHub repository. This is used to specify the repository from which to fetch information.
contributor.mode	'api' | 'git'	'api'	Defines the method to retrieve Git contributor information. If set to 'api', the GitHub API is used. If set to 'log', the git log command is used during build time, with the --no-merges parameter added by default.
contributor.logArgs	string	''	Additional arguments passed to the git log command when contributor.mode is set to 'git'. These arguments can customize the git log query (e.g., limiting the number of commits, filtering by date, etc.).

Warning

If you use the git method to deploy projects on static servers (such as Netlify, Vercel), there may be restrictions. To ensure proper deployment on these platforms, please use the api method.
