GitHubKit
Super simple to use Github API client library written using Apple NIO
Functionality
The below probably don't contain all methods from the spec but it's a good start ...
- Organizations
- Repos
- Files
- File contents
- Comments
- Commits (full management)
- Branches
- Webhooks
- Tags
- Releases
- PR's
- Issues
Usage
Add to your Package.swift file
.package(url: "https://github.com/Einstore/GitHubKit.git", from: "1.0.0")
Don't forget about your target
.target(
name: "App",
x: [
"GitHubKit"
]
)
Configure
let config = Github.Config(
username: "orafaj",
token: token,
server: "https://github.ford.com/api/v3/"
)
let github = try Github(config)
// or
let github = try Github(config, eventLoop: eventLoop)
// or
let github = try Github(config, eventLoopGroupProvider: .createNew)
Use in iOS and server side frameworks
Although this library has been only tested with Vapor 4, using Apple NIO HHTPClient should be compatible with any iOS or server side project.
Please let us know on our slack here how you getting on or should you need any support!
Use in Vapor 4?
import GitHubKit
// In configure.swift
services.register(Github.self) { container in
let config = Github.Config(
username: "orafaj",
token: token,
server: "https://github.ford.com/api/v3/"
)
return try Github(config, eventLoop: container.eventLoop)
}
// In routes (or a controller)
r.get("github", "organizations") { req -> EventLoopFuture<[Organization]> in
let github = try c.make(Github.self)
return try Organization.query(on: github).getAll().map() { orgs in
print(orgs)
return orgs
}
}
Development
Adding a new API call is ... surprisingly super simple too
Lets say you need to add a detail of a user
Go to the documentation
https://developer.github.com/v3/users/
Autogenerate a model
Copy the example JSON, for example:
{
"login": "octocat",
"id": 1,
"node_id": "MDQ6VXNlcjE=",
"avatar_url": "https://github.com/images/error/octocat_happy.gif",
"gravatar_id": "",
"url": "https://api.github.com/users/octocat",
"html_url": "https://github.com/octocat",
"followers_url": "https://api.github.com/users/octocat/followers",
"following_url": "https://api.github.com/users/octocat/following{/other_user}",
"gists_url": "https://api.github.com/users/octocat/gists{/gist_id}",
"starred_url": "https://api.github.com/users/octocat/starred{/owner}{/repo}",
"subscriptions_url": "https://api.github.com/users/octocat/subscriptions",
"organizations_url": "https://api.github.com/users/octocat/orgs",
"repos_url": "https://api.github.com/users/octocat/repos",
"events_url": "https://api.github.com/users/octocat/events{/privacy}",
"received_events_url": "https://api.github.com/users/octocat/received_events",
"type": "User",
"site_admin": false,
"name": "monalisa octocat",
"company": "GitHub",
"blog": "https://github.com/blog",
"location": "San Francisco",
"email": "octocat@github.com",
"hireable": false,
"bio": "There once was...",
"public_repos": 2,
"public_gists": 1,
"followers": 20,
"following": 0,
"created_at": "2008-01-14T04:33:35Z",
"updated_at": "2008-01-14T04:33:35Z"
}
Go to the https://app.quicktype.io and convert the JSON into a model ... you might want to mess a bit with the settings to keep the models consistent with ones in the project already. Also, any sub structs (unless they can be used elsewhere) should be moved inside of the parent model.
Oh yeah ... and call the main class User
! :) ...
Import Vapor
and conform the main model to Content
instead of Codable
.
Make a request extension
First you need to conform the User
model to Queryable
. This will enable the User.query(on: container)
method.
extension User: Queryable { }
Next we create an extension on QueryableProperty
which is generated each time you request a query on a container from the previous step. Make sure you specify the QueryableType == User
extension QueryableProperty where QueryableType == User {
/// Get all organizations for authenticated user
public func get() throws -> EventLoopFuture<User> {
return try github.get(path: "user")
}
}
All done
You should be able to call try User.query(on: c).get()
and get an EventLoopFuture<User>
with the details of your authenticated user.
