# Let's get started!
This tutorial will help you deploy Github-profile-summary-cards with ease. </br>
If you have any issues regarding the gifs, you can find high res video verions [Here.](/Videos.md)

### Table of Contents
1. [Generate token](#generate-token)
2. [Select a repo](#select-a-repo)

- [Create a new repo](#new-repo)
- [Add to existing repo (Recommended ⭐)](#existing-repo)
3. [Create a workflow](#create-a-workflow)
- [Additional information](#additional-information)
4. [Edit workflow file](#edit-workflow-file)
5. [Run the workflow](#run-the-workflow)
6. [Final Step](#final-step)
7. [The end](#the-end)


# Generate token

1. Navigate to your profile's Settings -> Developer setting -> Personal access tokens -> Generate new token



2. Name your token
(I'd recommend naming it something after `profile-summary-cards-token`) and ticking these boxes:


<p align="center"> <img src="./assets_new/gen_user_pac.gif" alt="animated"> </p>

3. And copy your token (**and don't lose it! You'd have to generate a new token**)


<!--
repo
- repo:status
- repo_deployment
- public_repo
user
- read:user
- user:email
-->

# Select a repo

- If you want to add to an already EXISTING repository. [Click here](#existing-repo)
- (E.g. If you already have a README that shows up on your profile)
- If you want to create a brand NEW repository. [Click here](#new-repo)


### New repo
To Create a new repo from a template:
1. Go to [Template link](https://github.com/vn7n24fzkq/github-profile-summary-cards-example)
2. Click on the "Use this template" button in the top right corner
3. Select "Create a new template"

<p align="center"> <img src="./assets_new/make_rep_f_tmp.gif" alt="animated"> </p>

4. Name the repo as your username <br> (E.g. `FunnyUsername/FunnyUsername`, this popup should appear if you've done it correctly)
<p align="left"> <img src="./assets_new/special_repo.png" alt="animated"> </p>
5. You can ignore the next sub-step.



### Existing repo
---
1. Add a README.md file **[if you dont have that file already]**

2. Rename your repo to your username (E.g. `FunnyUsername/FunnyUsername`) **[if you havent already]** <br>
<p align="left"> <img src="./assets_new/special_repo.png" alt="animated"> </p>
3. That's pretty much all. lets continue


# Create a workflow

Now we will add a workflow to automatically update the summary cards.

1. Navigate to the repo's Actions -> New workflow -> Set up workflow yourself
2. Name your new workflow (I'd recommend naming it something after `profile-summary-cards`)
* **Make sure you put `.yml` at the end!**

<p align="center"> <img src="./assets_new/create_n_wrkflw.gif" alt="animated"> </p>

4. **Commit changes!**

Code snippet:
```name: GitHub-Profile-Summary-Cards

on:
create:
schedule: # execute every 24 hours
- cron: "* */24 * * *"
workflow_dispatch:

jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
name: generate-github-cards
permissions:
contents: write

steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- uses: vn7n24fzkq/github-profile-summary-cards@release
env:
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.[YOUR_SECRET_TOKEN_NAME] }}
with:
USERNAME: ${{ github.repository_owner }}
```

## Additional information

>Please note that the workflow in it's current configuration will run every 24h (it will update every 24h) if you want to change it here is a ``cron's job definition``

```# .---------------- minute (0 - 59)
# | .------------- hour (0 - 23)
# | | .---------- day of month (1 - 31)
# | | | .------- month (1 - 12) OR jan,feb,mar,apr ...
# | | | | .---- day of week (0 - 6) (Sunday=0 or 7) OR
# | | | | | sun,mon,tue,wed,thu,fri,sat
# | | | | |
# * * * * *
```

So let's say you want it to run every 15 hours: <br>
`- cron: "* */15 * * *"`

Or for example you want it to run every friday at 12:35pm: <br>
`- cron: "35 12 * * fri"`

# Create a Secret for Token

1. Navigate to repo's Settings -> Secrets and variables -> Actions -> Repository secrets -> New repository secret

2. Name your secret (again, I'd suggest naming your secret as `summary_card_token` or similar)

3. Past in your **Personal access token**.
- in case you've lost it. Please go back to [Generate token](#generate-token) and get a new one.

4. **Copy that New secret's name!**


<p align="center"> <img src="./assets_new/make_n_scrt.gif" alt="animated"> </p>

# Edit workflow file
Now that we have obtained the Secret, we can move on the last step before deployment 🎉

1. Navigate back to Code -> .github -> workflows -> `profile-summary-cards.yml` *(or customized name you gave to the .yml file)*

2. Hit the pencil icon on the right side of your screen

3. Edit the `[YOUR_SECRET_TOKEN_NAME]` inside the `GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.[YOUR_SECRET_TOKEN_NAME] }}` with the Secret

- (Result should look something like this: `GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.SUMMARY_CARD_TOKEN }}`)

4. Commit changes


<p align="center"> <img src="./assets_new/edit_wrkflw.gif" alt="animated"> </p>


# Run the workflow

1. Navigate to Actions -> on the left side `profile-summary-cards` -> hit the button `Run workflow` -> Run workflow


<p align="center"> <img src="./assets_new/run_wrkflw.gif" alt="animated"> </p>

2. Wait till the workflow run appears (if not, please refresh the site)

- its normal that the loading indicator "gets stuck" at a certain point, just refresh the page.

3. If the loading indicators turn blue with a check inside, congratulations!
- if it for some reason wont, you've probably messed up somewhere (or this tutorial got outdated!) I recommend going from the beginning again OR making a new repo and renaming it after you've successfully managed to deploy this app.

# Final step
You did it! now we are ready to choose the theme we want our cards to be in
1. Navigate to Code -> profile-summary-card-output -> Select a prefered theme -> README.md

- You can get really creative with the layout you want your cards to be in, but for simplicity sake, I will pick a whole bundle

2. Copy the desired markdown section.

3. Navigate to Code -> Hit on pencil button on the right side of your README.md file

4. Paste in the copied content and hit Commit changes!


<p align="center"> <img src="./assets_new/edit_rdm.gif" alt="animated"> </p>

# The end

Now if everything went right. The cards should appear on your profile!

Don't be afraid to experiment with themes! There are many that might suit you better.

| 2. Find `Developer Settings` |
| <img src="./assets_legacy/find-developer-settings.png" height="500" width="360"> |
| 3. Find `Personal access tokens` |
| <img src="./assets_legacy/find-personal-access-tokens.png" height="200" width="400"> |
| 4. Press `Generate new token` button |
| <img src="./assets_legacy/generate-new-token.png" height="220" width="900"> |
| 5. Type access token name and check permissions |
| <img src="./assets_legacy/create-token.png" height="520" width="380"> |
| 6. Scroll to bottom and press `Generate token` button |
| <img src="./assets_legacy/generate-token-button.png" height="200" width="400">> |
| 7. Then we get the token, copy the token value, we will use it later |
| ![](./assets_legacy/copy-token-value.png) |

---

### Add to repo

- If you want create a Profile README or create a new repository. [Next Step](#use-template)

USERNAME: ${{ github.repository_owner }}
```

| It should looks like this one |
| :-----------------------------------------------------------: |
| <img src="./assets_legacy/new-file.png" height="800" width="700"> |
| Then we commit file |
