github api (ghapi)

A github api for node and the browser.

Usage

npm install ghapi

var api = require('ghapi')

api(command, arg_1, ..., arg_n [, parameters, callback])

See commands.js for a list of all the commands. The file is compiled by scraping all the commands form the Github API documentation. Consult the Github documentation for parameters associated with each api call. For commands requiring authentication, append an auth object to parameters.

Create a new gist

POST /gists

api('createGist', parameters)

var files = { 
  'api.txt': { 
    content: 'hello!' 
  }
}
var basicAuth = { 
  user: 'user', 
  pass: 'pass' 
}
api('createGist', { files: files, auth: basicAuth }).pipe(process.stdout);

Fork a gist

POST /gists/:id/forks

api('createGistFork', id, parameters);

var bearerAuth = { bearer: 'access token' } // github access token
api('createGistFork', '1',  { auth: bearerAuth }, function (err, res, body) {
  console.log(body);
});
