Why We Created the All Contributors Bot and CLI

Implementing the All Contributors spec by hand is a laborious process. To add contributors who have not contributed code to your project but have contributed in other ways requires manually editing your README.md file to add their name, profile link, and the appropriate contribution type emoji.

Further, you’d have to keep track of who has contributed what over time. This is a lot to manage, especially for larger projects with many contributors.

All Contributors Bot

The @all-contributors bot 🤖, makes the process of adding contributors of all kinds simple. When called to add a user, the bot will automatically pull a user’s profile image, grab the contribution type emoji, update your project’s README.md file and then open a Pull Request against the project with the updated README.md file. ✨

All Contributors CLI

Wenn man lieber in der Kommandozeile arbeitet, kann man auch das all-contributors Kommandozeilen-Werkzeug verwenden, um den Verwaltungsprozess der Mitwirkendenliste zu automatisieren. Read more about the All-Contributor bot CLI here.
