- A Personal Access Token with repo scope (or public_repo for public repos) is required.
- Tokens must be managed securely.
- The StackHound API can be queried directly at the /api/analyze endpoint.
- The endpoint requires username and repo as query parameters.
- It analyzes dependency files (e.g., package.json, requirements.txt) to detect technologies.
- Include the token in the request header using Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN or X-GitHub-Token: YOUR_TOKEN.
- Code examples are provided for reference.
- Replace placeholders (YOUR_USERNAME, YOUR_REPO, YOUR_GITHUB_TOKEN) with actual values.
