, For example, for the Kafka and Spring Framework repository, the value would be: apache/kafka,spring-projects/spring-framework
Run GithubMiner using the githubminer.bat
or githubminer.sh
script, with no parameters. When GithubMiner finishes it will generate a JSON file, placed in the “results” sub-folder, for each of the repositories given as parameters. The name of the files are ABC-prs.json
, whereby ABC
is the repository name.
