We regularly highlight Steampipe contributors, and we reward their efforts with swag. This year we upped our game by participating in Hacktoberfest by offering limited edition Steampipe Hacktoberfest 2022 stickers for no-code/low-code contributions (e.g. blog posts, doc updates, new table columns) and t-shirts for high-code contributions (e.g. new plugins or mods).
Our global community responded with a flurry of activity. From September 26th through October 31st 2022, we merged 38 contributions from 30 contributors representing 13 countries.
Top contributors: Alexis Minvielle-Debat and François de Metz (4 contributions each).
Top countries: France (10 contributions), India (9), and the United States (7).
45% of contributions were in the no-code category, including blog posts and documentation updates for steampipe.io/docs and hub.steampipe.io
20% were in the low-code category, including updated query examples, new columns added to existing tables, and more.
35% of the contributions were in the high-code category, including new Steampipe CLI features, new plugin tables, enhanced plugin capabilities, and two new plugins.
New plugins
Kumar Aggarrwal created Bitfinex to query the BITFINEX cryptocurrency exchange for currencies and tickers.
François de Metz created GitGuardian to query GitGuardian for secrets found by its scans of GitHub or GitLab repositories, as well as audit logs, workspace members, and sources.
