NAME

Net::Async::Github - support for https://github.com's REST API with IO::Async

VERSION

version 0.001

SYNOPSIS

 use IO::Async::Loop;
 use Net::Async::Github;
 my $loop = IO::Async::Loop->new;
 $loop->add(
  my $gh = Net::Async::Github->new(
   token => '...',
  )
 );

DESCRIPTION

This is a basic wrapper for Github's API.

METHODS

current_user

Returns information about the current user.

 my $user = $gh->current_user->get;
 printf "User [%s] has %d public repos and was last updated on %s%s\n",
  $user->login, $user->public_repos, $user->updated_at->to_string

Resolves to a Net::Async::Github::User instance.

configure

Accepts the following optional named parameters:

  • token - the Github API token

  • endpoints - hashref of RFC6570-compliant URL mappings

  • http - an HTTP client compatible with the Net::Async::HTTP API

  • mime_type - the MIME type to use as the Accept header for requests

  • page_cache_size - number of GET responses to cache. Defaults to 1000, set to 0 to disable.

You probably just want token, defaults should be fine for the other settings.

If you're creating a large number of instances, you can avoid some disk access overhead by passing endpoints from an existing instance to the constructor for a new instance.

reopen

Reopens the given PR.

Expects the following named parameters:

  • owner - which user or organisation owns this PR

  • repo - which repo it's for

  • id - the pull request ID

Resolves to the current status.

pr

Returns information about the given PR.

Expects the following named parameters:

  • owner - which user or organisation owns this PR

  • repo - which repo it's for

  • id - the pull request ID

Resolves to the current status.

user

Returns information about the given user.

users

Iterates through all users. This is a good way to exhaust your 5000-query ratelimiting quota.

Identifies the head version for this branch.

Requires the following named parameters:

  • owner - which organisation or person owns the repo

  • repo - the repository name

  • branch - which branch to check

update

core_rate_limit

Returns a Net::Async::Github::RateLimit::Core instance which can track rate limits.

rate_limit

METHODS - Internal

The following methods are used internally. They're not expected to be useful for external callers.

api_key

token

endpoints

Returns an accessor for the endpoints data. This is a hashref containing URI templates, used by "endpoint".

endpoint

Expands the selected URI via URI::Template. Each item is defined in our endpoints.json file.

Returns a URI instance.

http

Accessor for the HTTP client object. Will load and instantiate a Net::Async::HTTP instance if necessary.

Actual HTTP implementation is not guaranteed, and the default is likely to change in future.

auth_info

Returns authentication information used in the HTTP request.

mime_type

Returns the MIME type used for requests. Currently defined by github in https://developer.github.com/v3/media/ as application/vnd.github.v3+json.

base_uri

The URI for requests. Defaults to https://api.github.com.

http_get

Performs an HTTP GET request.

pending_requests

A list of all pending requests.

validate_branch_name

Applies validation rules from git-check-ref-format for a branch name.

Will raise an exception on invalid input.

validate_owner_name

Applies github rules for user/organisation name.

Will raise an exception on invalid input.

validate_repo_name

Applies github rules for repository name.

Will raise an exception on invalid input.

validate_args

Convenience method to apply validation on common parameters.

page_cache_size

Returns the total number of GET responses we'll cache. Default is probably 1000.

page_cache

The page cache instance, likely to be provided by Cache::LRU.

ryu

Our Ryu::Async instance, used for instantiating Ryu::Source instances.

INHERITED METHODS
