Repository pin card

GitHub lets a profile pin six repositories. This card is one repository as an image, so a README can show as many as it likes, in whatever order it likes.

?username=octocat&repo=hello-world&show_owner=true

Required

Option	What it is
username	The owner’s GitHub login
repo	The repository name, without the owner

Showing more than stars and forks

show adds a line under the description, as a comma-separated list: prs_authored, prs_commented, prs_reviewed, issues_authored, issues_commented. Each one is counted for the repository, not for the user.

Options

Option	Values	What it does
show_owner	true false	Put the owner’s login above the repository name
show	the list above	Extra counts to draw
show_icons	true false	Draw an icon beside each count
description_lines_count	a number	How many lines the description wraps to
browser_rendering	true false	Let the browser wrap the description instead of the renderer
number_format	short long	1.5k or 1500
text_bold	true false	Bold the values
line_height	a number	Space between the lines

Plus the common options every card takes, and locale.

Wrapping the description

The renderer wraps the description itself and truncates what does not fit, so the card is the same width everywhere. browser_rendering=true hands that job to the browser instead, which reads better when the description is long and worse when the card sits somewhere narrow.
