Issue: #2583

Summary & Context

The "Latest Boost Github activity" card on the profile page showed fake numbers hardcoded in the view (24 commits, a PR in cppalliance/buffers, links to example.com). This PR makes it show the user's real activity.

The numbers come from GitHub's GraphQL API, using the one shared app token we already have (GITHUB_TOKEN) rather than asking each user for extra permissions. The spike confirmed we don't need per-user OAuth, because boostorg repos are public and any authenticated token can read public contribution counts.

We save the results in the database and read from there. Loading a profile page never calls GitHub, so the page stays fast and we don't burn API quota on every page view.

  • Figma link: User Profile / activity card
  • Link to components/page: localhost:8000/users/me/ (needs the v3 waffle flag on, and a GitHub account connected)

Builds on the draft PR #2506, which had the first version of the GraphQL query, the GithubActivity model and the admin panel.

Changes

When the numbers get fetched

  • Connecting a GitHub account starts a fetch straight away, so a new user doesn't wait for anything.
  • Opening your profile checks how old the saved numbers are. Under 24 hours, we show what we have. Over 24 hours, we show what we have and start a refresh in the background.
  • There is no nightly job for all users. We only fetch for people who actually visit their profile. (The spike originally suggested a nightly job; Webpage Integration: GitHub Activity Pipeline #2583 changed this, so the daily task from feat: implements spike outcome for testing the Github Activity query #2506 was removed.)
  • Disconnecting a GitHub account deletes the saved numbers.

While a refresh is running

  • The card shows "Fetching GitHub activity" with a spinner, matching Figma node 11713:98663.
  • The card asks the server for an update every 5 seconds and swaps itself out when the new numbers arrive, so you don't have to reload.
  • It stops asking after 12 tries (about a minute) and switches to "reload the page to see the latest", so a broken fetch can't poll forever.
  • With JavaScript off, you get that "reload the page" message immediately.

Fixes to the query from #2506

  • It was reading both boostorg and cppalliance. The setting that was supposed to limit it to one org was never actually added to settings.py, so it silently fell back to a default that included both. For vinniefalco that meant showing 2042 commits instead of 5, and a featured PR from cppalliance/http — the org @rbbeeston confirmed we don't display.
  • If GitHub returned an error, the code caught it and carried on, handing back all-zero numbers as if they were real. Those zeros then overwrote good saved data. Now an error stops the whole thing, so the previous numbers stay untouched.
  • The org ID is now a setting instead of being looked up over the API every time. Worth knowing: GitHub's REST and GraphQL APIs both still hand back a deprecated ID format, so the old lookup was producing a deprecated ID on every call. The setting uses the current format (O_kgDOADBg4Q).

The card itself

  • Bullet lines are built from the saved numbers, with correct singular/plural ("1 repository" vs "7 repositories").
  • Lines with a zero are left out entirely, rather than showing "Created 0 Commits in 0 repositories".
  • "View on GitHub" goes to the user's GitHub profile.
  • If no GitHub account is connected, the card shows a connect prompt instead.
  • If an account is connected but nothing has been fetched yet, it shows a short "Fetching..." message rather than an empty box.

‼️ Risks & Considerations ‼️

Things I had to decide, that the ticket and Figma didn't cover — these are the main things to check:

  1. Where the links go. Figma pointed every link at example.com, so I picked targets: GitHub search filtered to org:boostorg for commits, PRs and reviews (both URL shapes verified working). The first one is "Created 1 repository" where GitHub has no URL for "repos created by this person inside this org", so it links to the org's repo list sorted by date. Happy to unlink that number instead.

  2. A failed refresh isn't retried for 5 minutes. There's a lock so that reloading the page repeatedly doesn't queue up duplicate fetches. Deliberate, but it means a temporary GitHub blip leaves stale numbers on screen a bit longer.

Three things older than this PR that I found but did NOT fix:

  1. Provider resolution can take out the whole profile page, and it's easy to trigger. get_social_accounts() (users/views.py:549) calls get_provider_account(), which raises if allauth can't resolve exactly one SocialApp for the account's provider — DoesNotExist on zero apps, MultipleObjectsReturned on two or more (adapter.py:299-302). There's no uniqueness constraint on SocialApp, and the provider field on both models is unvalidated free text, so a duplicate row or one typo in admin 500s /users/me/ for that user. I hit all three variants while setting up a local demo. Existed before this work; flagging because this PR makes connected accounts central to the page. Worth its own ticket, and the fix is probably for the profile page to degrade rather than raise.

  2. Connecting GitHub silently overwrites the user's display_name. users/signals.py:37 sets display_name from extra_data["name"] every time a link is created, with no check for whether the user already set their own. So anyone who has customised their Boost display name loses it the moment they connect GitHub. Pre-existing, and not touched here, but this PR gives people a reason to connect from the profile page, so it becomes much more reachable. Small fix (only set it when blank) if we want it in scope.

  3. hide_github_activity doesn't do anything yet, and that's correct. The field says "Hide GitHub activity from the public profile", and the public profile route is still commented out (config/urls.py:163). /users/me/ is your own page, so hiding the card there would hide it from the person who owns it. Nothing to do until the public profile page exists. Same for hide_mailing_list_activity and hide_badges.

How to test this locally

483 tests pass across users/ and core/, 32 of them new.

To see the card with real data you need two rows in your local database that a fresh checkout won't have. Both steps are quick, but skipping either one leaves you staring at the wrong thing, so the reason for each is spelled out.

Do these in order. Step 2 before step 1 gives you a 500.

1. Create a GitHub SocialApp/admin/socialaccount/socialapp/add/.

Field Value
Provider github
Name anything
Client id / Secret anything (nothing here calls GitHub's OAuth endpoints)
Sites select all

Then check /admin/socialaccount/socialapp/ shows exactly one GitHub row before continuing.

2. Link a GitHub account to your own user/admin/socialaccount/socialaccount/add/.

Field Value Watch out
User your user's numeric id raw id field: a number box with a magnifier, not a dropdown. Find the id at /admin/users/user/
Provider github free text, unvalidated. Must be exactly this, lowercase
Uid anything unique, e.g. local-1
Extra data {"login": "vinniefalco", "name": "<your own name>"} name overwrites your display_name

Why: the card decides whether you have GitHub connected by looking for a linked account, not by looking at github_username. That field also gets written by libraries/tasks.py from commit-author matching, with no OAuth involved, so it isn't a reliable signal that anyone connected anything. Setting only the handle gets you the connect prompt, not the numbers.

extra_data["name"] is copied straight into User.display_name by the connect signal (users/signals.py:37), unconditionally. Put your own name there, or you rename yourself to whoever's handle you're borrowing. See risk #7.

Use a real boostorg contributor for login (vinniefalco, pdimov, glenfe). Anyone else returns all zeros, every bullet is dropped, and the card renders empty, which looks broken but is correct. octocat is a good handle for capturing that zero state deliberately.

3. Load /users/me/.

Saving step 2 fires the connect signal, so Celery fetches the data on its own:

total_commits: 5, commit_repo_count: 3
prs_opened: 5, pr_repo_count: 5
prs_reviewed: 2, review_repo_count: 1
featured_pr: boostorg/url #932, 5 comments

Those are boostorg-only figures. The same handle reports 2042 commits when cppalliance is included, which is the bug described above.

4. To see the spinner and the auto-update, the saved data has to be stale, otherwise the card renders finished data on first paint:

docker compose run --rm web python -c "
import django,os; os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE','config.settings'); django.setup()
from users.models import GithubActivity
from django.utils import timezone; from datetime import timedelta
GithubActivity.objects.update(last_synced=timezone.now() - timedelta(hours=25))"

Reload and you get "Fetching GitHub activity" with the spinner, then the numbers appearing a few seconds later without a page reload. Needs celery-worker running.

To check the non-JS path, disable JavaScript and reload while stale. You should get the "reload the page to see the latest" message instead of a spinner that never resolves.

One trap if you add tests here: waffle caches flags in Redis, which does not roll back with the database between tests. Creating a Flag row directly leaks into later tests — use @waffle.testutils.override_flag. I hit this and it silently broke an unrelated signup test.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 3d6de

The PR adds GitHub activity fetching and refresh behavior, but it is not merge-ready while the no-JavaScript path can expose rejected email addresses in the URL and the admin refresh action cannot submit correctly because of nested forms.

Hi @javiercoronadonarvaez , awesome work on this! It's so fun to see the real stats – I think for all of us in our team we'll actually see our contribution data since website-v2 is part of boostorg as well 😎!

Asides from Cristian's suggestions above, I have a couple more for further improvements:
1/ We're missing the empty state for when a GitHub account has been linked, but they don't actually have any contributions to boostorg yet – I think this takes up 92% of our current users.

Image

2/ On your point regarding the name field will be overridden by GitHub name – I agree with your suggestion that having it only overrides if the name is blank should be much better.

When I tried to click on these URLs, currently the query stats we got in the card don't actually match the result on the GitHub page. The tiny problem that cause the mismatch is just that we're missing a 1-year date filter to match the API result!

Suggested change
def _search_url(login, terms):
query = quote(f"org:boostorg {terms.format(login=login)}")
kind = "commits" if "type:commit" in terms else "pullrequests"
return f"https://github.com/search?q={query}&type={kind}"
def _search_url(login, terms, kind="pullrequests"):
since = (
timezone.now() - timedelta(days=settings.BOOST_ACTIVITY_WINDOW_DAYS)
).date()
query = quote(
f"org:{settings.BOOST_GITHUB_ORG} {terms.format(login=login, since=since)}"
)
return f"https://github.com/search?q={query}&type={kind}"

Then we'll need to adjust the call of _search_url accordingly:

  • For "commits": url = _search_url(login, "author:{login} author-date:>{since}", kind="commits")
  • For "prs_opened": url = _search_url(login, "author:{login} is:pr created:>{since}")
  • For "reviewed": url = _search_url(login, "reviewed-by:{login} is:pr created:>{since}")

This should help us align the card stats better with GitHub site :)

Your suggestion is in, with one correction to the diagnosis.

The mismatch was type:commit, not the missing date filter. type: isn't a commit-search qualifier, so that link returned 0 results. Dropping it makes commits match exactly.

Verified on my own account — card vs. what each link actually returns:

link GitHub card
commits 7 7 ✅ (was 0)
PRs opened 13 13 ✅
reviews 18 10 ⚠️

The date filter still matters, just not for short histories like mine. vinniefalco: 2706 commits all-time vs 5 inside the window — card says 5.

Your explicit kind param turned out to be required, not cosmetic. The old code picked the tab by sniffing "type:commit" in terms, so removing type:commit would have silently pointed the commits link at the pull-requests tab.

Reviews stay approximate (18 vs 10). created:>= filters by when the PR was opened; totalPullRequestReviewContributions counts review events. Different units, different date anchors:

  • a PR opened 2 years ago but reviewed last week → counts for the card, excluded from search
  • 3 reviews on one PR → 1 in search, 3 in the API

No qualifier expresses review date, so no query closes it. Filtered anyway for consistency with the other links, with a comment in the code saying why.

I think SocialAccount existence is queried twice per render in this snippet.
Perhaps we can have github_activity_state return the linked-account boolean alongside (activity, refreshing) and just re-use it?

Do not put rejected email addresses in ce_email.

The no-JavaScript flow redirects the rejected address in the URL. URLs can persist in browser history, server access logs, and referrer headers. This exposes an email address as PII.

Store the rejected form state or error in the session, then redirect to the clean profile URL. Update V3CommitAuthorEmailCardMixin._redirect_to_profile with this change.

Django 6.0 admin change_form.html submit_buttons_bottom outer form source

💡 Result:

In Django 6.0, the submit_buttons_bottom block is defined within the admin/change_form.html template [1][2]. This block is located inside the main <form> element, specifically after the fieldsets and inline objects, but before the JavaScript initialization block [1][3]. The standard implementation of this block in Django's default template is: {% block submit_buttons_bottom %}{% submit_row %}{% endblock %} The {% submit_row %} template tag is responsible for rendering the default row of submit buttons (e.g., Save, Save and add another, Delete) [4][5]. Key technical points regarding its usage: 1. Form Context: Because submit_buttons_bottom resides inside the <form ... id="{{ opts.model_name }}_form" ...> element, any buttons or inputs you add within this block are treated as part of that form [3]. When clicked, they will submit the form data to the view [6][7]. 2. Customization: To customize the submit buttons, you can override admin/change_form.html in your project and redefine the submit_buttons_bottom block [8][7]. 3. Alternatives: If you only need to add buttons to the existing row, it is often cleaner to override the admin/submit_line.html template or the submit-row block within that template rather than the entire change_form.html [4][6]. 4. Block Super: When overriding, you can use {{ block.super }} to retain the default Django submit buttons while appending or prepending your custom buttons [8][6][7]. By overriding this block, you maintain full control over the buttons' placement and behavior while remaining within the standard Django admin form submission workflow [8][7].

Remove the nested <form> and use formaction.

Django renders submit_buttons_bottom inside the main change form. The nested form is invalid, so the button submits to the change form action instead of user_refresh_github_activity. Remove the inner CSRF token and update users/tests/test_admin.py::test_refresh_button_posts_with_csrf_token to assert formaction instead of action.

@julhoang regarding your points:

  1. Got it. We now have this message: "No Boost contributions in the last 12 months"
  2. Rearranged logic so that we only fill when Boost display_name is blank, preferring GitHub's name and falling back to the username so it's never left empty.
