Getting Started

First, add the following to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  github: ^6.0.0

Then import the library

import 'package:github/github.dart';

and then use it:

Example

import 'package:github/github.dart';

Future<void> main() async {
  /* Create a GitHub Client, with anonymous authentication by default */
  var github = GitHub();

  /*
  or Create a GitHub Client and have it try to find your token or credentials automatically
  In Flutter and in server environments this will search environment variables in this order
  GITHUB_ADMIN_TOKEN
  GITHUB_DART_TOKEN
  GITHUB_API_TOKEN
  GITHUB_TOKEN
  HOMEBREW_GITHUB_API_TOKEN
  MACHINE_GITHUB_API_TOKEN
  and then GITHUB_USERNAME and GITHUB_PASSWORD

  In a browser it will search keys in the same order first through the query string parameters
  and then in window sessionStorage
  */
  var github = GitHub(auth: findAuthenticationFromEnvironment());

  /* or Create a GitHub Client using an auth token */
  var github = GitHub(auth: Authentication.withToken('YourTokenHere'));

  /* or Create a GitHub Client using a username and password */
  var github = GitHub(auth: Authentication.basic('username', 'password'));

  Repository repo = await github.repositories.getRepository(RepositorySlug('user_or_org', 'repo_name'));
  /* Do Something with repo */
}
