Hello guys, I know this isn't the best place to ask this but how did you get multiple PATs? Did you used multiple GitHub accounts? Because as far as I know the rate limit is shared within the account regardless of how many PATs you generate.

@laureanray yeah we have multiple PATs from different github accounts. I think we currently have 7 of them.

Hi bro,

"Something went wrong! file an issue at https://tiny.one/readme-stats" "Maximum retries exceeded" "Please add an env variable called PAT_1 with your github token in vercel"

What should I do if I get this error?

anoduck commented Aug 17, 2023

@wooov I got the error as well. Just starting to troubleshoot it. As the error states, the pattern PAT_1 needs to be added in the github token within the vercel app. Probably a change in API. Cannot do it now, but will further troubleshoot later.

@anoduck Sometimes you can see these error during public instance downtime. It caused by hitting underlying GitHub API limits due to high load. See: #1471

The only way to get rid of these problem is deploying own Vercel instance using own GitHub API Personal Access Token (PAT).

@qwerty541 AHA! I see... So basically, chill and it should resolve itself momentarily.

And what do you know? It already is back working... Thanks for the assist buddy.

# Important Notices <!-- omit in toc -->

> [!IMPORTANT]\
> Since the GitHub API only [allows 5k requests per hour per user account](https://docs.github.com/en/graphql/overview/resource-limitations), the public Vercel instance hosted on `https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api` could possibly hit the rate limiter (see [#1471](anuraghazra/github-readme-stats#1471)). We use caching to prevent this from happening (see https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats#common-options). You can turn off these rate limit protections by deploying [your own Vercel instance](#disable-rate-limit-protections).

> [!IMPORTANT]\
> We're a small team, and to prioritize, we rely on upvotes 👍. We use the Top Issues dashboard for tracking community demand (see [#1935](anuraghazra/github-readme-stats#1935)). Do not hesitate to upvote the issues and pull requests you are interested in. We will work on the most upvoted first.

# GitHub Stats Card

Copy and paste this into your markdown, and that's it. Simple!

Change the `?username=` value to your GitHub username.

```md
[![Anurag's GitHub stats](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra)](https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats)
```

> [!WARNING]\
> By default, the stats card only shows statistics like stars, commits, and pull requests from public repositories. To show private statistics on the stats card, you should [deploy your own instance](#deploy-on-your-own) using your own GitHub API token.

> [!NOTE]\
> Available ranks are S (top 1%), A+ (12.5%), A (25%), A- (37.5%), B+ (50%), B (62.5%), B- (75%), C+ (87.5%) and C (everyone). This ranking scheme is based on the [Japanese academic grading](https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Academic_grading_in_Japan) system. The global percentile is calculated as a weighted sum of percentiles for each statistic (number of commits, pull requests, reviews, issues, stars, and followers), based on the cumulative distribution function of the [exponential](https://wikipedia.org/wiki/exponential_distribution) and the [log-normal](https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Log-normal_distribution) distributions. The implementation can be investigated at [src/calculateRank.js](https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats/blob/master/src/calculateRank.js). The circle around the rank shows 100 minus the global percentile.

### Hiding individual stats

You can pass a query parameter `&hide=` to hide any specific stats with comma-separated values.

> Options: `&hide=stars,commits,prs,issues,contribs`

```md
![Anurag's GitHub stats](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&hide=contribs,prs)
```

### Showing additional individual stats

You can pass a query parameter `&show=` to show any specific additional stats with comma-separated values.

> Options: `&show=reviews,discussions_started,discussions_answered,prs_merged,prs_merged_percentage`

```md
![Anurag's GitHub stats](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show=reviews,discussions_started,discussions_answered,prs_merged,prs_merged_percentage)
```

### Showing icons

To enable icons, you can pass `&show_icons=true` in the query param, like so:

```md
![Anurag's GitHub stats](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show_icons=true)
```

### Themes

With inbuilt themes, you can customize the look of the card without doing any [manual customization](#customization).

Use `&theme=THEME_NAME` parameter like so :

```md
![Anurag's GitHub stats](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show_icons=true&theme=radical)
```

#### All inbuilt themes

GitHub Readme Stats comes with several built-in themes (e.g. `dark`, `radical`, `merko`, `gruvbox`, `tokyonight`, `onedark`, `cobalt`, `synthwave`, `highcontrast`, `dracula`).

<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/anuraghazra/image/upload/v1595174536/grs-themes_l4ynja.png" alt="GitHub Readme Stats Themes" width="600px"/>

You can look at a preview for [all available themes](themes/README.md) or checkout the [theme config file](themes/index.js). Please note that we paused the addition of new themes to decrease maintenance efforts; all pull requests related to new themes will be closed.

#### Responsive Card Theme

[![Anurag's GitHub stats-Dark](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra\&show_icons=true\&theme=dark#gh-dark-mode-only)](https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats#responsive-card-theme#gh-dark-mode-only)
[![Anurag's GitHub stats-Light](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra\&show_icons=true\&theme=default#gh-light-mode-only)](https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats#responsive-card-theme#gh-light-mode-only)

Since GitHub will re-upload the cards and serve them from their [CDN](https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/about-anonymized-urls), we can not infer the browser/GitHub theme on the server side. There are, however, four methods you can use to create dynamics themes on the client side.

##### Use the transparent theme

We have included a `transparent` theme that has a transparent background. This theme is optimized to look good on GitHub's dark and light default themes. You can enable this theme using the `&theme=transparent` parameter like so:

```md
![Anurag's GitHub stats](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show_icons=true&theme=transparent)
```

<details>
<summary>:eyes: Show example</summary>

![Anurag's GitHub stats](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra\&show_icons=true\&theme=transparent)

</details>

##### Add transparent alpha channel to a themes bg\_color

You can use the `bg_color` parameter to make any of [the available themes](themes/README.md) transparent. This is done by setting the `bg_color` to a color with a transparent alpha channel (i.e. `bg_color=00000000`):

```md
![Anurag's GitHub stats](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show_icons=true&bg_color=00000000)
```

<details>
<summary>:eyes: Show example</summary>

![Anurag's GitHub stats](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra\&show_icons=true\&bg_color=00000000)

</details>

##### Use GitHub's theme context tag

You can use [GitHub's theme context](https://github.blog/changelog/2021-11-24-specify-theme-context-for-images-in-markdown/) tags to switch the theme based on the user GitHub theme automatically. This is done by appending `#gh-dark-mode-only` or `#gh-light-mode-only` to the end of an image URL. This tag will define whether the image specified in the markdown is only shown to viewers using a light or a dark GitHub theme:

```md
[![Anurag's GitHub stats-Dark](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show_icons=true&theme=dark#gh-dark-mode-only)](https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats#gh-dark-mode-only)
[![Anurag's GitHub stats-Light](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show_icons=true&theme=default#gh-light-mode-only)](https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats#gh-light-mode-only)
```

<details>
<summary>:eyes: Show example</summary>

[![Anurag's GitHub stats-Dark](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra\&show_icons=true\&theme=dark#gh-dark-mode-only)](https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats#gh-dark-mode-only)
[![Anurag's GitHub stats-Light](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra\&show_icons=true\&theme=default#gh-light-mode-only)](https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats#gh-light-mode-only)

</details>

##### Use GitHub's new media feature

You can use [GitHub's new media feature](https://github.blog/changelog/2022-05-19-specify-theme-context-for-images-in-markdown-beta/) in HTML to specify whether to display images for light or dark themes. This is done using the HTML `<picture>` element in combination with the `prefers-color-scheme` media feature.

```html
<picture>
  <source
    srcset="https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show_icons=true&theme=dark"
    media="(prefers-color-scheme: dark)"
  />
  <source
    srcset="https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api?username=anuraghazra&show_icons=true"
    media="(prefers-color-scheme: light), (prefers-color-scheme: no-preference)"
  />

# Top Languages Card

The top languages card shows a GitHub user's most frequently used languages.

> [!WARNING]\
> By default, the language card shows language results only from public repositories. To include languages used in private repositories, you should [deploy your own instance](#deploy-on-your-own) using your own GitHub API token.

> [!NOTE]\
> Top Languages does not indicate the user's skill level or anything like that; it's a GitHub metric to determine which languages have the most code on GitHub. It is a new feature of github-readme-stats.

> [!WARNING]\
> This card shows language usage only inside your own non-forked repositories, not depending on who the author of the commits is. It does not include your contributions into another users/organizations repositories. Currently there are no way to get this data from GitHub API. If you want this behavior to be improved you can support [this feature request](https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/18230) created by [@rickstaa](https://github.com/rickstaa) inside GitHub Community.

> [!WARNING]\
> Currently this card shows data only about first 100 repositories. This is because GitHub API limitations which cause downtimes of public instances (see [#1471](anuraghazra/github-readme-stats#1471)). In future this behavior will be improved by releasing GitHub action or providing environment variables for user's own instances.

### Usage

Copy-paste this code into your readme and change the links.

Endpoint: `api/top-langs?username=anuraghazra`

```md
[![Top Langs](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api/top-langs/?username=anuraghazra)](https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats)
```

### Language stats algorithm

We use the following algorithm to calculate the languages percentages on the language card:

```js
ranking_index = (byte_count ^ size_weight) * (repo_count ^ count_weight)
```

By default, only the byte count is used for determining the languages percentages shown on the language card (i.e. `size_weight=1` and `count_weight=0`). You can, however, use the `&size_weight=` and `&count_weight=` options to weight the language usage calculation. The values must be positive real numbers. [More details about the algorithm can be found here](anuraghazra/github-readme-stats#1600 (comment)).

*   `&size_weight=1&count_weight=0` - *(default)* Orders by byte count.
*   `&size_weight=0.5&count_weight=0.5` - *(recommended)* Uses both byte and repo count for ranking
*   `&size_weight=0&count_weight=1` - Orders by repo count

```md
![Top Langs](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api/top-langs/?username=anuraghazra&size_weight=0.5&count_weight=0.5)
```

### Exclude individual repositories

You can use the `&exclude_repo=repo1,repo2` parameter to exclude individual repositories.

```md
![Top Langs](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api/top-langs/?username=anuraghazra&exclude_repo=github-readme-stats,anuraghazra.github.io)
```

### Hide individual languages

You can use `&hide=language1,language2` parameter to hide individual languages.

```md
![Top Langs](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api/top-langs/?username=anuraghazra&hide=javascript,html)
```

### Show more languages

You can use the `&langs_count=` option to increase or decrease the number of languages shown on the card. Valid values are integers between 1 and 20 (inclusive). By default it was set to `5` for `normal` & `donut` and `6` for other layouts.

```md
![Top Langs](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api/top-langs/?username=anuraghazra&langs_count=8)
```

### Compact Language Card Layout

You can use the `&layout=compact` option to change the card design.

```md
![Top Langs](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api/top-langs/?username=anuraghazra&layout=compact)
```

### Donut Chart Language Card Layout

You can use the `&layout=donut` option to change the card design.

```md
[![Top Langs](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api/top-langs/?username=anuraghazra&layout=donut)](https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats)
```

### Donut Vertical Chart Language Card Layout

You can use the `&layout=donut-vertical` option to change the card design.

```md
[![Top Langs](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api/top-langs/?username=anuraghazra&layout=donut-vertical)](https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats)
```

### Pie Chart Language Card Layout

You can use the `&layout=pie` option to change the card design.

```md
[![Top Langs](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api/top-langs/?username=anuraghazra&layout=pie)](https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats)
```

### Hide Progress Bars

You can use the `&hide_progress=true` option to hide the percentages and the progress bars (layout will be automatically set to `compact`).

```md
![Top Langs](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api/top-langs/?username=anuraghazra&hide_progress=true)

## Quick Tip (Align The Cards)

By default, GitHub does not lay out the cards side by side. To do that, you can use this approach:

# Deploy on your own

## On Vercel

### :film\_projector: [Check Out Step By Step Video Tutorial By @codeSTACKr](https://youtu.be/n6d4KHSKqGk?t=107)

Since the GitHub API only allows 5k requests per hour, my `https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api` could possibly hit the rate limiter. If you host it on your own Vercel server, then you do not have to worry about anything. Click on the deploy button to get started!

> [!NOTE]\
> Since [#58](anuraghazra/github-readme-stats#58), we should be able to handle more than 5k requests and have fewer issues with downtime 😁.

> [!NOTE]\
> If you are on the [Pro (i.e. paid)](https://vercel.com/pricing) Vercel plan, the [maxDuration](https://vercel.com/docs/concepts/projects/project-configuration#value-definition) value found in the [vercel.json](https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats/blob/master/vercel.json) can be increased when your Vercel instance frequently times out during the card request. You are advised to keep this value lower than `30` seconds to prevent high memory usage.

5.  You're done 🎉
    </details>

## Disable rate limit protections

Github Readme Stats contains several Vercel environment variables that can be used to remove the rate limit protections:

*   `CACHE_SECONDS`: This environment variable takes precedence over our cache minimum and maximum values and can circumvent these values for self-hosted Vercel instances.

See [the Vercel documentation](https://vercel.com/docs/concepts/projects/environment-variables) on adding these environment variables to your Vercel instance.

## Keep your fork up to date

You can keep your fork, and thus your private Vercel instance up to date with the upstream using GitHub's [Sync Fork button](https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/working-with-forks/syncing-a-fork). You can also use the [pull](https://github.com/wei/pull) package created by [@wei](https://github.com/wei) to automate this process.

# :sparkling\_heart: Support the project

I open-source almost everything I can and try to reply to everyone needing help using these projects. Obviously,
this takes time. You can use this service for free.

However, if you are using this project and are happy with it or just want to encourage me to continue creating stuff, there are a few ways you can do it:

*   Giving proper credit when you use github-readme-stats on your readme, linking back to it. :D
*   Starring and sharing the project. 🚀
*   [![paypal.me/anuraghazra](https://ionicabizau.github.io/badges/paypal.svg)](https://www.paypal.me/anuraghazra) - You can make a one-time donations via PayPal. I'll probably buy a ~~coffee~~ tea. 🍵
