🚀 Chrome extension to display repository size on GitHub

🚀 Chrome extension to display repository size on GitHub

Automatically adds repository size to GitHub's repository summary.

Private Repository

To enable viewing size of private repositories;

1. Install extension from chrome webstore, if you haven't.
2. Go to https://github.com/settings/tokens to generate your personal access token.

• Check repo scope to enable this extension on private repo.

3. Click on the Github Repo Size extension (this extension)'s icon aside the address bar.
4. Paste your access token there in the prompt box.

Temporarily override the token

You can set x-github-token in localStorage to your access token, and the extension will use this value even if you've previously set token.

localStorage.setItem('x-github-token', <YOUR-PERSONAL-ACCESS-TOKEN>)

and then remove it to use previously set token;

localStorage.removeItem('x-github-token')

Development

1. Clone this repo

[ASK FOE HELP! ] About setting the repositoty size

Hi，Harsh ！
Thanks for your contributions，i have succeeded in setting "viewing size of private repositories". Just like the below pic shows, the size of each files have been shown.

You have writen as the follows:

Temporarily override then token
You can set x-github-token in localStorage to your access token, and the extension will use this value even if you've previously set token.https://github.com/harshjv/github-repo-size#private-repository/

However, i can't find the right way to set just like the below pic.

CAN YOU HELP ME PLEASE? i am new to github.

• Do i need to dowload some softwares or add new files of some types to repo？

• Where can i find the x-github-token in localStorage just like you said?

The extension is disabled due to a permission change. Need explanation

The new permission has disabled this extension on my chrome. I wanted to know the reason and impact of this permission change.

It says
Read and change your data on api.github.com and github.com

Thank you for this helpful extension

Repo size seems too large

The extension shows my repository as having a size of 1014 KB (and increasing), even though the size of all of the files added up should be only about 200 KB.

Not showing repo size when it is loaded through pjax

Not working on private repos

I'm trying to keep track on the size of my remote repository, and this would be very handy. Unfortunately, it does not work with private repositories.

Can this extension tell source lines of code in a project?

Support github new UI

Doesn't work for private repositories

A very helpful extension, @harshjv! But unfortunately it does not seem to work for private repositories.
It would be great if the size would be visible to the owner.
I think Github authentication would be required in the extension, but it will be worth it.

Missing or redundant

What is displayed will disappear or be repeated.

[Thanks for your job, it is valuable.]

Build system

Gulp or Grunt based build system with Browserify!

Wrong size ?

Hi,

I just find out that the provided size is wrong oO
Let's try with PhpFastCache:
https://api.github.com/repos/PHPSocialNetwork/phpfastcache

The size is 19153 which mean 18,7Ko(KiloOctet/KiloBytes) which mean ~ 0,02Mo (MegaOctet/MegaBytes)

However your extension, displays 18.7 MB, i guess Megabytes (because the B is uppercase).
So there's something wrong in the math.

I had a look at the code and found out this in inject.js line 20:
bytes *= 1024

It confuses me a lot. Are you calculating per-bits-based or per-bytes-based ?

Cheers,
Georges

Disambiguation

type: disambiguation

Add Travis CI integration

GitHub has changed the Filemanager UI

Github has again changed it's FileViewer and hence, this plugin/extension has to be updated to work on the new UI.

Thanks!

Userscript version

I love this script, so i want to request if you can make a userscrpt version of this, for use in other browsers (even Edge using tampermonkey).

Is this possible?

A better icon to display size

Open to suggestions!

Hover mouse on repo size icon shows null tooltip

Reproduce steps:

1. Click on repo size icon to load folders size
2. Hover mouse on it
3. Tooltip "null" shown

See image:

Just my 2 cents 🙂

when I use push -f to update my repos but repo size not change

this is my repos size which is github-repo-size gain.
but i use push -f to reduce my repo size.
now my repo size is

i think is some wrong.

Support new repository page

Github is previewing a new look for the repository page (enable it by going to Avatar → feature preview → Repository Refresh), which isn't compatible with the extension.

Not working in private repos (404)

Even though I generated the token and added to the extension I get this in the console:

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)
inject.js:109 Error: GitHub returned a bad status: 404
    at checkStatus (inject.js:79)

When I try that 404 fetch myself I see this:

Enhance Instructions to work correctly with Private Repo

In order to work correctly with Private Repositories or Organizations, the token needs to get the "repo - Full control of private repositories" scope assigned to it:

Without this scope, the extension will only work on public repositories, even with the token provided.

This needs to go into the Private Repository instructions: https://github.com/harshjv/github-repo-size#private-repository

Note: The token doesn't need any other scope. Just the repo scope is enough.

Use OAuth login to your account feature.

To be honest, I find it annoying having to always enter a token (I create my token that ends at a certain time due to security reasons). I wish there was just a "Login to GitHub" feature as an alternative way to obtain access.

Does not work on redesigned GitHub.

Cannot display the correct size

About this repo :https://github.com/Jyouhou/ICDAR2019-ArT-Recognition-Alchemy

I found a strange thing: I am using this chrome extension to show the repo size which is shows 3.69MB,but that file is 19.1MB.

the repo size:

How to see private repo size?

I can see this in the docs "Generate a Github personal access token from here and click on extension icon to add it." But, could you elaborate?

Not able to see size of big repos

I have two private repo, one is of size 40 MB and another one is about 3.44 GB, i am not able to see the size of folder nor repo size in in my big repo.

Position of size label on the screen

Tracking position related changes here in this issue @guidezpl

Any Firefox Version? #21

"Data Saving" mode

Hello, I would like to make a sugestion:

Add a "Data Saving" feature that would only preload the total github repository size and would then allow to load a folder/file size manually, on click.

This will save not only bandwith but also the number of requests to the GitHub API. Note that after seeing some repos the rate limit is easily exceeded if one is not using his personal token.

Option to provide API token

Hello,

As the free access to the API is limited, you should offer a way to setup a token to the extension settings :)

Is activeTab permission necessary?

I've seen the documentation at https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/activeTab, but I can't figure out why this permission would be necessary.

total repo size != sum of folders

I have a private repo in which the after activating the plugin says it is 714MB
However when i click this to display the folder sizes, there is one folder @1.58GB

It seems like the plugin is not calculating things correctly. Any ideas?

EDIT: I see this behavior in many other repos, some repos have an underestimate of total size, others an overestimate

File and Folder sizes

Will it be possible to display individual file and folder sizes as well?

Browsing back in history doubles output in stats bar

Steps to reproduce

1. go to repository, e.g. github-repo-size
2. browse issues
3. go one step back in browser history

Result

Possible fix

Check if li element exists before inserting.

Wrong repo size

In addition to #31, I've noticed too that sometimes the repo size is completely wrong, either too big or too small.

Example

• Go to this repo : https://github.com/bitoiu/markwrap
• As time of writing, the total size displayed is 4.28MB
• Click on the assets folder
• Notice that the size of the example.gif file only is 4.58MB

Navigating from another pane to the Code pane results in the repo size not appearing

In the gif below, I:

1. load the page fresh
2. the repo size does appear
3. navigate to Issues
4. navigate back to Code
5. the repo size does NOT appear

Let me know if you'd like me to take a stab at fixing this.

Safari and firefox extensions

extension contradicts with vimium

It seems the extension can't work with vimium on. However, after closing vimium, it can display repository size again after refreshing.

Display Submodule size

It would be nice if a submodule is listed if that was displayed as well

Sometimes the buttons that show the folder size are invalid

The button that shows the size of the folder is disabled when I return from the child page.

Any Firefox Version?

Always asks for token

Every time I restart my Browser (on latest macOS, using Brave with Chromium), this asks me for the GitHub token.

It would be good to have an options page rather than a prompt, which is terrible UX.

Text Color

Color for KB is off, it should be #586069 not #24292e. I fixed it locally.

Exception when there is a git submodule in the repo

DOMException: Failed to execute 'insertBefore' on 'Node': The node before which the new node is to be inserted is not a child of this node.
at chrome-extension://apnjnioapinblneaedefcnopcjepgkci/src/inject.js:154:46

It is a private repo, thus no more details can I tell, thanks.

Please consider adding support for GitHubEnterprise

Our company is moving from public github to private github (GitHubEnterprise/GHE).
In the process, I will be losing the use of this nice extension.
One of the folks in charge of the move identified the problem with this extension.

Yeah...I'm guessing this line would have to change:

github-repo-size/src/inject.js

Line 3 in b84b14b

const API = 'https://api.github.com/repos/'

to be configurable and to use the API Base URL I sent in the email

Have to refresh every time you enter a new repo.

For some reason, the extension is not working properly. I have to refresh the page to get it to load correctly on every page.

Which Personal Access Token permissions are required?

Display folder sizes.

It would be great if it displays folder sizes also. Would be great for big projects as they have lots of folders/extensions and could easily track their sizes.
