Details

vim-github-dashboard, developed by junegunn, is a plugin that calls the GitHub API within the Vim environment to display dashboards and activity logs. It aims to allow users to check GitHub information within the terminal without switching to a browser.

Key Features and Usage

  • GHDashboard: Displays the GitHub dashboard screen for a specific user.
  • GHActivity: Shows a list of activity logs for a specific user or repository.
  • Navigation: Move between items using CTRL-N/CTRL-P, and press Enter or o to open the corresponding link in a browser.

Configuration and Authentication

  • Authentication is not required for public GitHub queries, so run the command with ! (e.g., :GHD! junegunn).
  • When accessing GitHub Enterprise, you must configure the API endpoint and Access Token using the g:github_dashboard#profile_name variable.
  • Since it uses the Ruby interface, it works without additional configuration on the default Vim in OS X.
