Clone this repository\n\n   ```shell\n   git clone https://github.com/roboloop/awesome-things\n   ```\n\n2. Install [clasp](https://github.com/google/clasp) and grand access\n\n   ```shell\n   npm install -g @google/clasp\n\n   # Log in and grant access to Apps Script functionality\n   clasp login\n   ```\n\n3. Associate the cloned project with your Google Spreadsheets\n\n   - Enable the Google Apps Script API [here](https://script.google.com/home/usersettings)\n\n   - Create a blank Google Spreadsheets [here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/create?usp=sheets_web)\n\n   - Go to `Extensions` —\u003e `Apps Script`\n\n   - On the Apps Script page, open `Settings` and copy the Script ID\n\n   - Create a `.clasp.json` file:\n\n     ```shell\n     cp .clasp.json.example .clasp.json\n     ```\n\n   - Paste the Script ID into the `scriptId` field\n\n4. Set up a GitHub Personal Access Token\n\n   - Get a PAT [here](https://github.com/settings/personal-access-tokens) (no scopes required)\n\n   - Create a `.env.local`\n\n     ```shell\n     cp .env .env.local\n     ```\n\n   - Add the GitHub token to `.env.local` file\n\n5. _(Optional)_ Integrate [daily-stars-explorer](https://github.com/emanuelef/daily-stars-explorer) to check extended GitHub repository statistics:\n\n   - Add the address to `.env.local` file:\n\n     ```\n     VITE_STARS_EXPLORER_URL=127.0.0.1:8080\n     ```\n\n   - Run the instance (it retrieves the PAT and address from `.env.local` file):\n\n     ```shell\n     docker run --rm --name daily-stars-explorer \\\n       --env PAT=\"$(sed -n 's/^VITE_GITHUB_TOKEN=//p' .env.local)\" \\\n       --publish \"$(sed -n 's/^VITE_STARS_EXPLORER_URL=//p' .env.local)\":8080 \\\n       ghcr.io/emanuelef/daily-stars-explorer:latest\n     ```\n\n6. Deploy the project with following command:\n\n   ```shell\n   npm run deploy\n   ```\n\n## Usage\n\n1. Refresh the Google Spreadsheet page\n\n2. Load the Table of Contents:\n\n   - In the `Awesome Things` menu, select `Load Table of Contents`\n\n   - Enter the GitHub repository link, e.g., \u003chttps://github.com/vinta/awesome-python\u003e\n\n   - The `ToC` sheet will be populated\n\n3. Load the specific thing:\n\n   - Select the cell with the interesting item\n\n   - In the `Awesome Things` menu, select `Load Things`\n\n   - A new sheet will be created and filled with data\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Froboloop%2Fawesome-things","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Froboloop%2Fawesome-things","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Froboloop%2Fawesome-things/lists"}
