DevConnector

Social network for developers

It would also be worth adding your default.json config file to .gitignore If git has been previously tracking your default.json file then...

git rm --cached config/default.json

Then add your token to the config file and confirm that the file is untracked with git status before pushing to GitHub. You'll also need to change the options object in routes/api/profile.js where we make the request to the GitHub API to...

const options = {
  uri: encodeURI(
    `https://api.github.com/users/${req.params.username}/repos?per_page=5&sort=created:asc`
  ),
  method: 'GET',
  headers: {
    'user-agent': 'node.js',
    Authorization: `token ${config.get('githubToken')}`
  }
};
