A lightweight Express API that fetches GitHub user data, analyzes repository metrics, and stores profile summaries in a MySQL database.

• server.js — Express app entry point
• src/config/db.js — MySQL connection and schema initialization
• src/routes/githubRoutes.js — API route definitions
• src/controller/githubController.js — request handling and DB persistence
• src/services/githubService.js — GitHub API calls and repo analysis
• schema.sql — database table definition

1. Clone repository:

   git clone https://github.com/DeShyam01/github-profile-analyzer.git
   cd github-profile-analyzer

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install

3. Create a .env file in the project root with these values:

   PORT=3000
   DB_HOST=localhost
   DB_PORT=your_mysql_port
   DB_USER=root
   DB_PASSWORD=yourpassword
   DB_NAME=github_analyzer
   GITHUB_TOKEN=your_github_token   # optional, improves GitHub rate limits

4. Start the app:

   npm run start

5. Confirm the server is running:

   • http://localhost:3000

The application initializes the MySQL schema automatically on startup using schema.sql.

• id — INT, primary key, auto-increment
• username — VARCHAR(100), unique GitHub login
• name — VARCHAR(100)
• bio — TEXT
• public_repos — INT
• followers — INT
• following — INT
• location — VARCHAR(100)
• company — VARCHAR(100)
• blog — VARCHAR(255)
• github_created_at — DATETIME
• github_updated_at — DATETIME
• total_stars — INT
• top_language — VARCHAR(50)
• analyzed_at — TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP

Use curl, Postman, or any HTTP client.

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/github/analyze/octocat

Expected response:

{
  "message": "Profile analyzed successfully",
  "username": "octocat"
}

curl http://localhost:3000/api/github/profiles/

curl http://localhost:3000/api/github/profiles/octocat

• The app uses axios to fetch GitHub data and mysql2 for database access.
• src/config/db.js reads schema.sql on startup and creates the profiles table if it does not exist.
• Providing GITHUB_TOKEN is recommended for higher GitHub API rate limits.
