# GitHub Popular Searches
[](https://vinitshahdeo.github.io/GitHub-Popular-Searches/) [](https://documenter.getpostman.com/view/6186519/RznEKdvc)
### A [Postman](https://www.getpostman.com/) collection to discover popular repositories on [GitHub](https://github.com) for a given search query. It sends the popular repository on Slack channel.
> **This collection is published [here](https://documenter.getpostman.com/view/6186519/RznEKdvc).**
```js
_____ ____ _____ _______ __ __ _ _
| __ \ / __ \ / ____|__ __| \/ | /\ | \ | |
| |__) | | | | (___ | | | \ / | / \ | \| |
| ___/| | | |\___ \ | | | |\/| | / /\ \ | . ` |
| | | |__| |____) | | | | | | |/ ____ \| |\ |
|_| \____/|_____/ |_| |_| |_/_/ \_\_| \_|
```
### How does it work?
- Put a search query for GitHub Repositories
- Fetch GitHub Repo URLs through API call to NPM
- Collect all the comments, download count, stars count, fork count from GitHub API
- Perform Sentiment Analysis on Comments
- Suggest best available repository for given search term on Slack

> Set the following environment variables before you run this collection :
- ` {{searchTerm}} ` : the query you want to search
- ` {{maxSize}} ` : maximum number of repositories you want to fetch
It sends the popular repository on Slack channel using webhook.
> This collection uses [Github API](https://developer.github.com/v3/) to fetch comments and sends a report to an internal Slack channel using a [webhook](https://api.slack.com/incoming-webhooks#sending_messages).
