GitHub is now the ubiquituous home for developers - query the GitHub API using this tutorial to get started building fine grained analytics on repos across GitHub.
Authentication
Get an access token here - (https://github.com/settings/tokens?type=beta)[https://github.com/settings/tokens?type=beta]. You'll need the token to access the API.
This simple example queries the API for all repos on the user's profile.
import micropip
await micropip.install('pygithub')
await micropip.install('ssl')
from github import Github
# Authentication is defined via github.Auth
from github import Auth
# using an access token - get token here: https://github.com/settings/tokens?type=beta
auth = Auth.Token("access-token-here")
# First create a Github instance:
# Public Web Github
g = Github(auth=auth)
# Then play with your Github objects:
for repo in g.get_user().get_repos():
print(repo.name)
# To close connections after use
g.close()For the full reference to learn what's possible - (https://pygithub.readthedocs.io/en/stable/)[https://pygithub.readthedocs.io/en/stable/].
