github_user = os.environ.get('githubuser')
api_url = 'https://api.github.com/users/{github_user}/repos?per_page=100'.format(github_user=github_user)

if github_user is None:
    github_user = raw_input('No GitHub username detected, please enter it here: ')


def count_stars(url):
    rsp = requests.get(url)
    repos = rsp.json()
    star_count = sum([repo['stargazers_count'] for repo in repos])
    return rsp, star_count

rsp, star_counted = count_stars(api_url)

if rsp.links:
    last_url = rsp.links['last']['url']
    page_count = int(last_url.rsplit('=', 1)[-1])
    pages = [api_url+'&page=%d'%i for i in range(2, page_count+1)]
    star_counted = sum([item[-1] for item in map(count_stars, pages)], star_counted)

print(star_counted)
