Emoji Key ✨ (and Contribution Types)
About the Emoji Table
Section titled “About the Emoji Table”To have a contribution added when using the Bot or CLI use the keyword in the Type column.
For example if you add a comment in an issue or Pull Request on GitHub like this:
@all-contributors add @usernamehere for a11y
Then the bot will add the user (usernamehere) as a contributor with the Accessibility contribution type to your project’s README file.
You can also use multiple contribution types like this:
@all-contributors add @usernamehere for a11y, docs, infra
And the bot will add those contribution types to the user’s existing contribution types. If the user is not already a contributor, the bot will add them as a new contributor with those contribution types.
Natural Language Processing
Section titled “Natural Language Processing”The bot will use basic Natural Language Parsing to determine your contribution intent.
