New code contributor index
Posted by David May 18, 2009 @ 03:42 PM
Xavier Noria (code) and José Espinal (design) have created an awesome code contributor index for Rails core submissions. It’s being updated automatically every night and tracks the number of commits and which particular commits to individuals in the community. You can even track the commits over time, as in who’s been most active this month.
The site now lives at contributors.rubyonrails.org. Thanks to Xavier and José for putting in the work on this!
When I go to contributors.rubyonrails.org, it just reloads the front page of this blog again. Temporary virtual host issue? Or a DNS propagation delay? (I do get a diff IP for contributors. versus weblog. though)
Same thing for me. Only seeing blog front page.
Looks like the DNS is still propagating. There is a wildcard entry that points to the blog it seems.
I just went and cleared the OpenDNS cache, so hopefully that will help a lot of people see it faster.
FYI It seems to only count committers, not authors
FYI I’m wrong. :P
Power law distribution!
@John yeah, and commit has many authors :)
Very cool. Now, open source the collaborators tool :). I’d love to hook this up to our project.
@Ross Sure it is at http://github.com/fxn/rails-contributors/tree/master.
I really like it, but I think the rankings are wrong.
they should be cumulative,
1. Mr A
2. Ms B
3. Dr C
Sister D Revd E #6. Prof F
Currently Prof F would be ranked 4th, which is wrong.
(that didnt come out so well)
1. Mr A
2. Ms B
3. Dr C
3. Sister D
3. Revd E
6. Prof F
is correct
Wow, QUANTITY for the win!
Why write in one line what you could write in 10!
@Matthew I think both series make sense, it just depends on how you define them. But I don’t really have a preference… it could be changed if people want to.
I think what this really shows is that DHH has been slacking off for the past year… ;-)
Yay! I’m there with many others at position #52. Thanks for boosting my ego a little bit. :)
nice thanks.
